Product Overview

The JCF-1670 icing monitoring sensor utilizes microwave detection technology and temperature analysis to provide real-time monitoring of icing conditions on various types of cables, communication antennas, and high-speed rail cables. It issues icing alerts for the monitored area, calculates ice thickness, assesses the hazards of icing in real time, and provides de-icing control commands to activate de-icing systems. This ensures the safe operation of equipment in severe icing conditions, improves operational efficiency, and reduces energy consumption for de-icing.

Compared to traditional methods such as tension-based icing detection and image-based icing monitoring, microwave icing monitoring technology offers lower power consumption and higher sensitivity; it does not require self-de-icing to function; and it is unaffected by wind conditions.

Application Areas

High-voltage power grids, outdoor equipment, outdoor antennas, wind turbine blades, drones, etc.
