Lightning Monitoring and Warning System for Oil Storage Tanks

Lightning Monitoring and Warning System for Oil Storage TanksConstruction and outdoor construction guidance: Construction sites should suspend high-altitude operations such as tower cranes and scaffolding, evacuate outdoor construction personnel, and avoid lightning strikes that may cause injury or death to metal equipment or personnel. Forestry and forest fire prevention have issued warnings in forest and forest farm areas, reminding fire prevention departments to strengthen inspections, clear combustibles in forest areas in advance, and respond quickly to extinguish lightning strikes and fires. Agricultural production targets open-air farmland and facility agriculture (such as greenhouses), informing farmers in advance to stop field operations, reinforcing lightning protection facilities in greenhouses, and avoiding lightning damage to irrigation equipment, agricultural IoT sensors, or injuring field workers.

1、 Product Introduction

Lightning Monitoring and Warning System for Oil Storage TanksIt is a fully digital electric field detection and lightning warning platform. Its core electric field detection structure is based on the principle of charge induction and developed using MEMS (Micro Electro Mechanical Systems) technology. It has no easily worn and movable mechanical components such as motors, and has outstanding advantages such as small size, low power consumption, high reliability, and easy integration. The system adopts electric field differentiation combined with threshold threshold optimization for lightning warning algorithm. Compared with the conventional threshold method, it is more likely to avoid false alarms caused by human interference (rainy/windy/snowy/dusty), further improving the accuracy of warning. The lightning warning system provides accurate warning, is easy to network, and is easy to install. It is mainly aimed at the application needs of atmospheric electric field detection and lightning local short-term warning in aerospace defense, meteorology, petroleum and petrochemical, power grid, scenic spots, mines, oil depots, military and other fields.
