Chemicals

Provides predictive diagnostic insights tailored to field conditions, enabling accurate detection of transformer anomalies.

[On-site Maintenance Engineer]
"With more accurate and detailed diagnostic results, we were able to prevent transformer accidents that could have otherwise occurred."


01 Client

The client is a leading petrochemical company in Korea, producing petrochemical products, secondary batteries, optical materials, electronic materials, and pharmaceuticals through large-scale chemical plant operations.






02 Background

The client had been managing transformers through conventional dissolved gas analysis and precision inspections, but experienced instability in gas levels at certain points, leading to ongoing concerns about maintenance. As a result, they recognized the need for a more accurate predictive diagnostic approach that goes beyond IEEE or IEC standards and reflects real-world operational conditions.




03 Issue

A sudden rise in C₂H₂ was observed in one of the client's transformers, but according to IEEE standards, the issue was not significant enough to change the condition level, so no additional action was taken. Therefore, a detailed inspection of the transformer was conducted during the plant overhaul period using onepredict's guardione® solution.

1. On December 17, 2021, guardione® diagnosed the simultaneous hydrocarbon activity at the "Attention" level, unlike IEEE standards

2. From April 20, 2022, gas levels increased rapidly, and the solution continued to diagnose it at the "Caution" level

3. On June 8, 2022, a spike in C₂H₂ caused a sharp drop in the health index — guardione® diagnosed the issue as arcing near the tap changer, and this diagnosis was later confirmed during the overhaul period.


04 Result

Through successful verification, the guardione® solution secured a renewal contract covering all transformers at the plant. During the overhaul period, the diagnostic accuracy of the guardione® solution was confirmed, and it helped prevent a potentially serious incident that could have occurred if the overhaul had not taken place.
