The SmartDGA Gauge™ instrument is the industry’s first online dissolved gas analysis (DGA) monitor dedicated to Load Tap Changers (LTCs). The instrument uses Non-Dispersive Infrared (NDIR) technology to measure and record fault gases Methane (CH4), Acetylene (C2H2), Ethylene (C2H4) and moisture found in insulating (mineral) oil. Capture data 24 hours a day including gas levels, rates, and ratios to detect faults and prevent failures. Reduce the number and frequency of LTC maintenance cycles by implementing condition-based maintenance. Implement the lowest total cost to own solution in the industry with no consumables, carrier gases, or scheduled calibrations
