OLE Measurement System

CONSTRUCTION
 
The OLE Measurement System operates using ultrasonics. It has four transducers fitted at opposite ends of a yellow casing controlled by software and electronics. When the transducers are activated the bursts of sound emitted are reflected back from the target cable(s). The elapsed time is measured, temperature compensated and the position of the overhead line is displayed on the laptop screen.
 
The system components comprise:
 
0 The ultrasonic unit
0 Odometer / G.P.S.
0 Laptop computer
 
 
THE SYSTEM
 
The OLE Measurement System is a “contactless” height and stagger measuring system. It is compact and virtually maintenance free. It can measure the contact wire and the support wire concurrently and provides a “moving graph” of the measurements and/or numerical output for Excel MS format.
 
Full post-processing of results gives additional information such as mid -span height and stagger and contact wire gradient. All measurements can be synchronised to one of the wheels. A full computerised record of measurements is provided.
