Smart Substations
Improve operations, reduce costs and move towards a smarter power grid with Disruptive Technologies small and robust wireless sensors. The sensors are easy to install and require no downtime.
Meaningful Insights from Your Infrastructure
When sensors detect a change on a critical asset, operators can react quickly to re-balance or replace the asset before any damage is done. Say goodbye to emergency response units arriving to avert a catastrophe. Systems remain online and running smoothly.
Tiny Wireless Sensors You Can Place Anywhere
Temperature, proximity, touch, water detection & humidity sensors.
Wireless mini-sensors attach onto cables, pipes, high voltage fuses and any difficult-to-reach places with small surface areas. Easy to install & no downtime required.
How It Works
Easily measure temperature, proximity, water level & humidity of your assets. Wirelessly transmit the results to your Cloud Connector via SecureDataShot™ technology. Get real-time data in the DT or partner cloud. Access information and set up triggers and alerts through our DT Studio or use our API to integrate it into your own or a partner system.
01
Sensors - Small ingenious sensors for humidity, temperature, water detection, door status, transformer temperature and core remote monitoring of your assets.
02
Cloud Connector - Our cloud connector gathers sensor data and transfers it to our cloud or a partner cloud. A plug and play gateway.
03
DT Cloud & API - View and manage data via our software, one of many partner portals, or a custom integration through our API.
Fixing the Issues with Today's IoT Solutions
Disruptive Technologies was founded to address the shortcomings of current sensing solutions. Leave cumbersome hardware and inflexible software behind. Perceive more with fewer interruptions and see sensor data immediately.
Sensor size
At 19 x 19 x 2.5mm, our sensors can be placed on almost anything using industrial-grade adhesive. They have a robust design with an IP68 rating (water & dustproof).
Low cost
The low cost of our solution makes it economically feasible to continuously monitor equipment on a whole new scale.
Simplicity
There is no need for configurations during installation. Plug in the Cloud Connector and you’re ready to go.
End-to-end encryption
All data is encrypted, from the sensor to the cloud. Best in class scores from 3rd party security reviews.
Battery life
Our custom-designed chip technology enables us to deliver a battery life of up to 15 years in a normal environment.
Open API
Data is readily available for download or streaming to any analytics platform via a powerful REST API.
“The new data has thus not only helped discovered an incipient failure in a critical component, it also allows us to keep operating the substation in a safe and controlled way while we are waiting for an opportunity to repair or replace the troublesome components.”
- Boye Annfelt Høverstad, Head of Data Science at Statnett
Smart Substation Monitoring
Disruptive Technologies wireless sensors enable monitoring of critical functions in a substation without planning for any downtime during the installation. Monitoring is achieved by placing our small and robust wireless sensors on strategic components within the substation.
Door Security
Monitor if the main door is left open or not.
Transformer Temperature
Monitor the temperature of the transformer core.
Substation Humidity
Measure the humidity and temperature of the room.
Transformers Lines
Measure temperature individual high and low voltage phases.
Water Detection
Detect if there is water on the floor or if the water level is critical.
Pole-Mounted Transformers
Cloud Connector mounted in a weather-proof enclosure.
Outside Temperature
Measure the outside temperature of the substation for reference.
Cables & Joints
Measure temperature on output power lines.
