OIL TREATMENT ARRAS MAXEI

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION OF THE STANDARD OIL TREATMENT PLANTS

TYPE MAS 12000 140kW 1000m3/h

PREAMBLE The use with confidence of the dielectric fluids in the transformers, circuit breakers, and other types of electrical equipment depends upon some of their basic characteristics, which can affect the general operating efficiency of the electrical equipment. In order to ensure manifold functions such as an insulant, a coolant and an extinguishing medium, these dielectric fluids must have some basic properties, and especially a high dielectric strength. Now, in service, the dielectric fluids properties may be affected by the appearing of oxidation, condensation and other contaminants such as water, solid impurities and dissolved gases. Working on the principles of filtration, dehydration and vacuum degasification, MAXEI Industries Electriques oil treatment plants are particularly recommended to maintain, dry and fill your transformers and circuitbreakers. By removing the impurities, dissolved moisture and gases, they indeed enable to restore the oil dielectric properties and to extend the useful life of your electrical equipment. Used and well-known all over the world for their performance, reliability and ease of operation, our standard plants are now enriched with our latest technological achievements. Automated, fitted with remote control or telecontrol systems, our oil treatment plants are more and more autonomous, which insure you increased productivity.

Oil treatment
The oil treatment plants ARRAS MAXEI has been designed to treat dielectric oil having a 50 ppm moisture content and a dissolved gas content of approx. 10% by volume before being treated. After getting the optimal treatment conditions, the clean treated oil goes out after 1 pass at a maximum temperature of 70C with a moisture content below 5 ppm* and a dissolved gas content of approximately 0,1% by volume*. The breakdown voltage of the oil will be in excess of 75 kV after treatment. An oil at 20 ppm will go out at 3 ppm* after 1 pass. The above figures are reached with oils having a 10-2 mbar distillation curve at a temperature of 80 C.

OIL TREATMENT ARRAS MAXEI

TYPE MAS 12000-1140

Principle of operation
Options Road trailer Low speed trailer The dielectric fluid enters in the plant through an inlet strainer, and then passes through an inlet oil pump and into an oil heater, where it is heated by immersion heaters. After a fine filtration on cartridge, the dielectric fluid is sprayed into a vacuum chamber on a basket of Raschig rings. Finally, after the contaminants are eliminated, the clean treated fluid flows through the outlet oil pump.

Options Plant with metallic cover Plant with tarpaulin

Optional features
Process controls
1) INSULATING SYSTEM This option enables, in case of incident or any sudden treatment stopping (power cut), to insulate the plant from the electric appliance to be treated and thus to prevent from dangerous oil flowing into the oil treatment plant. 2) HIGH LEVEL DETECTION SYSTEM This option enables the automatic stop of the plant, when the valve, which protects the vacuum pump, is full. This reinforced safety and avoids the transfer of the condensates in the vacuum pump. 3) AUTOMATIC DRAINING OF THE VALVE This option enables an optimal protection of the vacuum network of the plant. 4) VOLTMETER / AMPERE METER This option will enable you to visualize the feeding tension of the plant as well as the developed intensity in order to protect the network and the equipment. 5) RECORDER This option ables to record the physical dimensions, characterizing the degazing process, like the temperature and the vacuum. 6) QUALITY CONTROL OF OILS

The presentations

1) CART The oil treatment can be installed on a cart with full tyres (maxi speed : 20 km/h). 2) ROAD TRAILER The oil treatment plant can be installed on a road trailer. The trailer can be equipped with rear lights in accordance with the EU regulations of road code. The whole installation is commissioned by the French government vehicle testing service to be allowed to circulate in France and European countries. 3) TARPAULIN PROTECTION The plant can be equipped with a protection type tarpaulin, which protects it from the bad weather. The tarpaulin can be opened on the four side panels to enable the access to all the components of the plant. 4) METALLIC COVER PROTECTION The plant can be equipped with a metallic cover type protection, which protects it from the bad weather. It is made of aluminium with a frame made of iron steel. The side panels opens horizontally, closing per key and are maintained thanks to gas jacks. The panels enable the access to the components of the plant.

The transformers drying

(The vacuum technology)

1) TRANSFORMER DRYING This option enables to make vacuum in the transformer in order to dry the active parts while the oil is treated. The pump is installed parallel to the first one to increase the pumping capacity of the plant. 2) DOUBLE STAGE PUMPING GROUP In case of this option, the primary vacuum pump mounted on the plant is completed with a second pump stage composed of a roots. 3) AUXILIARY VACUUM CONNECTION This option enables to have an additional vacuum connection on the plant. 4) CONDENSOR AND COOLING GROUP This option enables an optimal protection of the pump group in case of high water content treatment.

The transformers drying

1) TRANSFER PUMP This option enables to increase the hoses length between the plant and the transformer. 2) HIGHER HEATING POWER The standard heating power of the ARRAS MAXEI oil treatment plants has been calculated for a weight ratio between oil and transformer about 4. In case of a higher ratio, we recommend to increase the heating power of the plant. 3) AUXILIARY HEATING CONNECTION This option enables to have an additional heating connection. It allows to heat the transformer per oil circulation through the plant heater. 4) SAFETY LEVEL ON TRANSFORMER This option is installed on the upper part of the transformer to control the variations of the oil level in this one. 5) CONNEXION FEATURES AND ACCESSORIES 6) PULVERIZATION
