FLIR Systems GF306 optical gas imaging camera has been designed to address the challenge that electrical power stations face in detecting gas leaks from their Sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) circuit breakers. The longer a leak from a SF6 circuit breaker is left undetected and not repaired, the more revenue is lost, and the greater the impact on the environment from the electrical power station. By using a portable, non-contact FLIR GF306 optical gas imaging camera – electrical power engineers can remotely visualize SF6 leaks from a safe distance without the need to shut down operations.Further Information: www.FLIR.com/substation-
