Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of transformer detection devices, comprises ultrasonic sensors, monitoring means, wireless communication and other related technologies, and particularly relates to an intelligent ultrasonic oil level monitoring device for a transformer based on a narrow-band Internet of things technology.
Background
The oil level gauge is an important monitoring device for oil quantity parameters in oil-filled electrical equipment such as a transformer, and commonly used oil level gauges include a tubular oil level gauge and a pointer oil level gauge. The phenomenon that the oil level gauges are inaccurate in display and even invalid after the two oil level gauges are operated for a long time is commonly called as 'false oil level', and the phenomenon brings great harm to the operation of oil-immersed electrical equipment such as transformers and the like.
At present, more and more transformer substations have been realized unattended, if the oil level that is very important to transformer operation shows inaccurately or lacks on-line monitoring, will lead to core substation equipment state perception reliability lower, along with the construction of strong smart power grids and ubiquitous electric power thing networking, the oil level real-time on-line monitoring of transformer receives much attention.
In the prior art, the oil level of an oil conservator of a transformer is generally detected by two modes, namely horizontal glass tube indication or a metal floating ball type oil level meter. The former utilizes the pressure balance principle of a U-shaped liquid level meter, and the latter principle is that a floating ball connecting rod triggers magnetic force change and finally triggers gauge needle change. Because both the oil conservators and the oil conservators belong to pure mechanical structures, the oil conservators and the oil conservators can be directly contacted with transformer oil for detection, so that the oil conservators are required to be disassembled for maintenance when faults such as rupture of capsules in the oil conservators, pressure abnormity or rupture of floating balls, bending of connecting rods, blocking of gauge needles and the like occur, and the oil conservators are required to be subjected to a series of operations such as long period, weather restriction, high cost and the like after maintenance is finished. Therefore, an improved scheme is provided for the existing oil conservator oil level detection device, and the technical problem which needs to be solved urgently in the industry at present is solved.
