Early fault detection is critical in avoiding major component failure and unplanned downtime. Sparks Instruments design and manufacture the sensors, monitoring instruments, acquisition systems and diagnostic tools to reveal the actual condition of your Turbo Generator.

We offer a number of different monitoring options that you can select from: partial discharge monitoring, rotor flux monitoring, shaft voltage and current, and temperature.

Our solutions provide plant operators with an centralized, holistic view of the Turbo Generator and all of it’s major components by visually overlaying key data gathered by any or all of the above monitoring options onto a single graphical representation of your generator. This allows you to monitor the entire Generator and it’s electrical components on the one screen.

This information is key in supporting early fault detection and reliably informs maintenance planning over the machines life-cycle as it ages. Machine manufactures and plant operators are provided with vital information during site acceptance phase of new and refurbished machines.

This greatly reduces the risk of failure and unplanned downtime..
