The industrial borescope is widely used in the detection of power equipment in wind, water, thermal power plants, and power construction units. Because the development of the power industry is related to the trend of the national economy, electricity is an indispensable part of life by converting power generation facilities such as coal, oil, natural gas, water energy, and wind energy, so the defects of turbines, pipelines, condenser tubes, pumps, boilers, heat exchangers, valves, pressure vessels and other important equipment of power pipelines are detected and monitored regularly.
For pipelines in power equipment, inspectors need to clearly understand the internal cracks, welds, dirt, corrosion, rust, wear, foreign body blockage, etc., and find problems and eliminate hidden dangers in time. The industrial borescope transmits the image to the monitor through a small camera and optical lens without disassembling the equipment. This technology can help engineers quickly identify and locate faults and reduce downtime and losses.
Which parts of the generator can Yateks borescope check?
-
Generator detection
Industrial borescope can be used for internal inspection of generators, such as checking the wear, cracks, and insulation of rotors, stators, and windings, to ensure the safe and normal operation of generators
-
Transformer detection
A borescope can be used to detect the inside of the transformer, such as checking coils, insulation materials, cooling devices, etc., to find possible faults and defects.
-
Transmission line detection
Industrial borescopes can be used for internal inspection of transmission lines, such as detecting insulators, contactors, wires, etc., to find potential faults and problems in time and improve the safety and stability of transmission lines.
-
Detection of switch gear
borescopes can be used to detect switching devices, such as circuit breakers, contactors, disconnectors, etc., to detect their internal conditions and find abnormalities, wear, or other faults in time.
-
Transmission tower detection
Industrial borescope can be used for the internal inspection of transmission towers, such as checking the tower body, bolts, connectors, etc., and finding corrosion, looseness, cracks, and other problems to ensure the structural safety of transmission towers.
Inspection method of borescope on generator
1. Generally, it enters from the oil pipe of the transformer.
2. The inner diameter of the oil pipe of 110 kV transformer is 7 ~ 10 mm)
3. The inner diameter of the oil pipe of 220kV and 550KV transformer is about 11mm).
4. In other cases, hole probing can be carried out through the lead hole and the gap of the pressure plate.
Borescope project requirements
At the customer’s site, the customer is now using an industrial endoscope of a Japanese brand that he bought earlier. Because the steering mechanism is damaged, it can’t be used normally, so he wants to find a manufacturer that can compete with imported equipment. Customers investigated domestic manufacturers of high-end endoscopes. After comprehensive comparison, Yateks engineers were invited to bring equipment to the site for demonstration and exchange. The industrial endoscopes models demonstrated this time were mainly P series industrial borescope and X series borescopeThe gear box under maintenance was directly detected by endoscopes on site. Because the internal space of the gear box was narrow and the surface of the parts was stained with oil, the lens sensitivity and control flexibility were highly required.

The customer investigated the domestic manufacturers of high-end borescopes. After a comprehensive comparison, Yateks engineers were invited to take the equipment to the site for demonstration and exchange. The industrial borescopes used in this demonstration were mainly SIE620S and XIE420S, and the gearbox under maintenance was directly detected on-site. Because of the narrow internal space of the gearbox and oil stains on the surface of the components, the sensitivity and control flexibility of the lens were highly required.
