Perception Fleet

Transformer Fleet Risk Management Software System

Easy to install and configure, Perception™ Fleet delivers instantaneous results upon installation. Continuing its legacy in providing innovative solutions, Perception Fleet is GE’s Online Transformer Fleet Management Software System that provides a revolutionary and holistic approach for transformer fleet assessments for utilities and industrial customers around the globe.

 

GE’s Perception Fleet is a smart, simplified and standards-based software system that moves customers from a manual, one-on-one transformer assessment process to an automated and online fleet management assessment. By evaluating the condition of assets and establishing their risk of failure, Perception Fleet is able to prioritize and rank assets within a fleet.

 

The Perception Fleet software with web browser interface provides customers comprehensive transformer fleet condition rankings, transformer risk information, and expert analysis on-demand, removing time-consuming and costly manual processes as well as unnecessary maintenance, helping focus capital and reduce operational expenses.

Key Benefits

Transformer Fleet Replacement Strategy

  • Provides a clear strategic view for asset replacement across the entire fleet
  • Tracks the fleet risk index over time to show the improving overall condition of the fleet
  • Allows for flexible and scalable transformer fleet risk management

Condition-Based Maintenance Program

  • Provides the insight required to shift from costly time-based maintenance to cost effective and focused condition-based maintenance
  • Reduces ambiguity and the need to speculate regarding budget requirements
  • Reduces OPEX usage on assets to only as required

Automated Data Analysis

  • Reduces time required to gather, amalgamate, analyze and interpret transformer diagnostic data
  • Provides intelligent algorithms to determine each transformer’s condition, and ranks the transformers in the fleet based on their risks
  • Reduces reliance on transformer expertise that is rapidly being lost
A Smart Transformer Fleet Management System

 

Perception Fleet is a smart software solution designed to provide a comprehensive condition evaluation of a transformer fleet. Perception Fleet can analyze and interpret data in order to determine the risk of a transformer without the need for expert data analysis. Full technical analysis is also instantly available for transformer technical expert use. This is accomplished by gathering, amalgamating, analyzing and interpreting the data held on transformers utilizing GE’s online monitoring devices and offline data. The data is analyzed using intelligent algorithms for condition anomalies and characteristics to determine the transformers risk. Each transformer is then assigned a risk score, and they are ranked based on their criticality and risk of failure
