A novel optical sensor for the measurement of furfuraldehyde in transformer oil
نویسندگان
چکیده
Measuring the concentration of furfuraldehyde (FFA) within oil samples taken periodically from power transformers is usually carried out as a means of condition monitoring. Normally, laboratory-based techniques such as high performance liquid chromatography are applied for this measurement. We report the construction of a novel optoelectronic sensor for the determination of FFA in transformer oils to concentrations as low as 0.1 ppm. The sensor will form the basis of a compact and portable instrument that can be used by a nonspecialist operator to determine, on-site, the concentration of FFA in oil extracted from the transformer.

Gas and Optical Sensing Technology for the Field Assessment of Transformer Oil
Oil testing has found widespread use in assessing the quality of the insulation system of a transformer. Techniques such as Dissolved Gas Analysis (DGA) have been proven to be reliable in this task, but are expensive, laborious and time consuming. It is also not available for field use. This paper proposes the combined use of gas and optical sensing technology for the testing of transformer oil...

متن کاملTip sensor probe for changing refractive index measurement in small volumes
In this paper, a tapered tip optical fiber probe sensor for localized refractive index (RI) measurements is presented. This sensor’s interaction with analytes is confined to a few micro-meters which makes it a promising candidate for in-vivo or even intra-cellular RI monitoring. This tapered tip was simply fabricated by etching optical fiber with hydrofluoric acid to a conic shape with a sub-m...
