Schneider Canada Services uses the Prodiag diagnostic system developed by Schneider to thoroughly inspect and test medium voltage circuit breakers. Prodiag documents the condition and performance of a circuit breaker, enabling tracking of any deterioration. Emphasis is placed on the operating and interrupting mechanisms.
Objectives
- To minimize the time for maintenance and repair
- To perform maintenance only on the equipment requiring it and only when necessary(conditional preventive maintenance)
|
|
Process
- Prodiag measures opening and closing time, speed, response time, contact simultaneity, contact resistance and compares with the circuit breaker's standards.
- These results also enable the service technician to detect any miscellaneous faulty parts such as shock absorbers, shaft, pinion, misalignment etc.
Results
- Prodiag provides a report of the complete signature of the circuit breaker, detailing : closing / opening time, contact simultaneity, bounce and resistance, mechanical closing and opening forces.
- This report enables any requires maintenance to be targetted and timed to optimize the customer's maintenance plan.
