Pry-Cam

A revolutionary wireless asset monitoring solution

Your cable network is a valuable asset; analyse its performance with PRY-CAM.

 

With energy demands increasing and networks expected to work harder, it is vital that all cables perform at their best to avoid potential disruptions in power transmission and distribution. With data centres now classified as critical infrastructure by the government, maintaining reliable, clean, secure and uninterrupted supply of energy is essential. This is where PRY-CAM can help.

 

With PRY-CAM, you can closely monitor the performance of your cable network and identify and locate any potential issues – should they happen.

 

PRY-CAM is Prysmian technology that continuously monitors circuits without using sensors. PRY-CAM helps you assess the behaviour and performance of your network and detect faults – should they occur – instantly throughout its entire lifetime.

What is PRY-CAM?

Partial Discharge (PD) monitoring is a key factor in assessing the conditions of any cable network; however, the common methods can be a laborious set of tasks. Traditionally, the technologies used to assess medium voltage (MV), and high voltage (HV) assets were complex, expensive and time-consuming. It has been difficult to assess the asset as a whole and the technologies were not integrated with all the key parameters. 

But with PRY-CAM, asset monitoring becomes faster, more accurate and effective than ever before. 

PRY-CAM is a ground-breaking solution that works by harnessing a suite of products to identify the location of any fault along the circuit. Featuring innovative, wireless technology PRY-CAM allows PD testing to be performed online without the need to de-energise the system or for direct connection to the asset. Not only does it save time, but it also reduces the risks for operators.

The PRY-CAM range

PRY-CAM comprises a range of innovative products, designed to meet various requirements, including PRY-CAM Portable and PRY-CAM Grids.

PRY-CAM Portable - as the name suggests – is a portable device that measures and analyses PD in real-time. It is ideal for online spot PD measurements, detecting even the smallest of discharges.

PRY-CAM Grids is a high-performance system developed to remotely monitor PD on three-phase strategic assets. It is designed for continuous, real-time monitoring, and can be installed during normal operation without service interruptions. 

Do you have a HV Direct Current (HVDC) electrical system? That’s not a problem, PRY-CAM GATE is deployable with automatic diagnosis and automatic alarms for highly reliable PD detection in HVDC circuits.

Free access to the PRY-CAM Cloud

All the measurements and data gathered by PRY-CAM devices are safely stored and protected on the PRY-CAM Cloud – a digital storage hub. 

PRY-CAM Cloud can be easily accessed via the members area of the PRY-CAM website, wherever you are. Simply login to your account and check on the performance of your asset in real-time and even perform routine diagnostics and localisation remotely. You will always be informed if a fault should occur, giving you great piece of mind.
