Lightning is a natural phenomenon with extremely high energy and harm, posing a serious threat to the safety of human life and property. In order to effectively prevent the occurrence of lightning disasters, people have installed lightning protection facilities in various important buildings, facilities and equipment, such as lightning rods, grounding devices, surge protective devices (SPDs), etc., to guide lightning currents to be safely discharged to the ground, or to isolate the intrusion of lightning currents into electronic equipment.
However,There are some defects and deficiencies in traditional lightning protection facilities, such as:
The installation and maintenance cost of lightning protection facilities is high, and professional personnel are required to regularly inspect and replace them, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive;
It is difficult to monitor the operation status of lightning protection facilities in real time, and once a failure or deterioration occurs, it may not be possible to detect and deal with it in time, resulting in the reduction or failure of lightning protection effect;
The data recording and management of lightning protection facilities are inconvenient, and the laws and characteristics of lightning disasters cannot be counted and analyzed, and can not provide a scientific basis for lightning protection decision-making and optimization.
In order to solve these problems, the intelligent lightning protection monitoring system came into being. Intelligent lightning protection monitoring system is a system that uses modern information technology to monitor, manage and control the operation status of lightning protection facilities in real time, which can effectively improve the safety, reliability and intelligence of lightning protection, reduce operation and maintenance costs and risks, and provide users with a full range of lightning protection solutions.
Dikai TechnologyIntelligent lightning protectionThunder and lightningThe composition and working principle of the monitoring system
The intelligent lightning protection monitoring system consists of three parts: front-end monitoring equipment, signal transmission equipment, and back-end monitoring platform.
Front-end monitoring equipment:It mainly includes intelligent lightning protection monitoring terminals and intelligent lightning protection devices. The intelligent lightning protection monitoring terminal is an intelligent device that integrates sensors, microprocessors, communication modules and power modules, which can be installed in key positions of lightning protection facilities, such as lightning rods, grounding devices, SPDs, etc., and is connected with the back-end monitoring platform through wired or wireless means to realize real-time data acquisition and remote control of lightning protection facilities. The intelligent lightning protection device is a SPD with intelligent monitoring function, which can monitor its own deterioration state, lightning count, life, etc., and communicate with the intelligent lightning protection monitoring terminal to form an intelligent lightning protection network.
Signal Transmission Equipment:It mainly includes intelligent gateways and switches. The smart gateway is a converter that converts RS485 signals into network signals and is used to connect front-end monitoring devices and back-end monitoring platforms. A switch is a network device that enables data exchange and transmission between multiple intelligent gateways.
Back-end monitoring platform:It mainly includes computer host and software platform. A computer host is a computer device that is used to run a software platform and store data. The software platform is an application software used to realize the remote management and control of front-end monitoring equipment, as well as the real-time monitoring, statistics, analysis and alarm of lightning protection data.
Dikai TechnologyThunder and lightningThe working principle of the intelligent lightning protection monitoring system is as follows:
When lightning occurs, the front-end monitoring device detects the peak, polarity, number and other parameters of the lightning current through the sensor, and converts it into a digital signal and sends it to the intelligent gateway through RS485 or wireless means.
The intelligent gateway converts the received RS485 signal into a network signal and sends it to the back-end monitoring platform through the switch.
After receiving the network signal, the back-end monitoring platform analyzes and processes it through the software platform to realize real-time monitoring and management of lightning protection facilities, such as displaying the operation status of lightning protection facilities, fault alarms, data recording, data analysis, etc., and can send reports and reminders to users through the network or text messages;
The back-end monitoring platform can also send control instructions to the front-end monitoring equipment through network signals to realize remote control of lightning protection facilities, such as remote reset, remote testing, remote debugging, etc.
