LKX MULTI

Complete overhead line monitoring system

The LKX MULTI conducts autonomous monitoring of overhead lines under all conditions, leveraging self-powered technology, our system provides real-time surveillance and essential data, fostering proactive maintenance and preventing unexpected outages, independent of external sources.

No Batteries, No Panels

A New Standard in Line Monitoring

Cameras

Sensors

Other

Accelerometer

Line sensors measure galloping, aeolian vibration and ground clearance in real-time.

Salinity Sensor

Detects surface contamination by measuring surface resistance.

Current Sensor

High frequency sampling of conductor current.

Wind Sensor

Acoustic wind sensor, equipped with built-in de-icing, accurately measures 0-75 m/s wind speed and direction.

Environmental Data

Ambient temperature, humidity and barometric pressure.

Corona-free anodized aluminium housing provides a safe and rugged design excelling in extreme environments.

Revolutionizing Grid Monitoring

Captures all events using 4K optical cameras facing the line and mast.

The LKX-MULTI can be installed by a two-man crew within 10 minutes of accessing the phase wire via bucket truck.

Our system ensures the utmost security by end-to-end encrypting all data transmission.

What our customers say

"Being able to utilize the conductor current to power the monitoring devices is a huge benefit. It reduces costs and provides us with accurate data and a unique viewpoint since the Laki Power station is on the conductor itself"

Miroslav Radojcic

Project Manager, Statnett

"The Laki Power monitoring stations gave us reliable monitoring capabilities in critical locations without the need for huge investments in external power sources"
