Wirescan’s mission is to provide innovative cable diagnostic tools enabling cable operators to reduce cable repair cost and extend life time of installed cables. The basis is the patent pending technology LIRA – LIne Resonance Analysis.
Wirescan’s LIRA system monitors the global degradation of the cable insulation caused by harsh environment conditions (high temperature, humidity, radiation) and detects local degradation of the insulation material due to mechanical impacts or local abnormal environmental conditions.
Key Characteristics:
- Sensitive detection of failure, degradation and deviation
- Positioning accuracy better than 0.3% of the cable length
- Applicable to a wide range of electrical- and signal cables
- Fast and simple connection to test objects
- No disconnection of cables required
- Non intrusive and non destructive
- Only one access point is needed for measuring
- Measuring range from a few meters to several hundred kilometres
LIRA is based on transmission line theory.
