Partial discharges are small electric current pulses that occur as a result of insulation degradation by mechanisms like load cycling, loose windings and contamination. Iris Power provides solutions for partial discharge monitoring under normal operating conditions to understand the health of your asset and plan maintenance in order to avoid costly failures.

Stator endwinding vibration monitoring solutions measure the radial and tangential vibrations of stator end winding to provide advanced warning on potential failures. Aging of insulating blocking and bracing material can shrink or loosen resulting in increased end-winding movement which leads to significant collateral damage.
