For more than 50 years, PRONAL has been developing

and supplying flexible solutions made out of elastomer

coated fabric to the transformer industry.
PRONAL is supplying to distribution & power transformers OEM’s,
service teams & maintenance companies, with:
• Rubber bladders (also called STP, air cells, rubber bags…):
STP are installed inside the conservator tank to compensate oil volume
variation during operation while avoiding external air pollution.
• Pneumatic lifting bags: used during setting up to the « active part »
to lift the coil and allow spacer insertion/adjustment.
• Flexible tanks: to store oil during commissioning and/or
maintenance operations.

 Different shapes
STP: Flexible separator CONSERVATOR
BREATHER
PRONAL’s rubber bags can be used
in several conservators shapes.
BLADDER AIR
DESICCANT AIR DRYER

STP rubber bags are installed to line inside the conservator tank, allowing oil volume variations while OIL

protecting the oil from any type of contamination (external corrosive agents, such as air, ozone, OIL LEVEL GAUGE
nitrogen, humidity, etc…). Cylindrical Rectangular

STP rubber bags are made out of elastomer-coated fabric, vulcanized at high temperature SHUT-OFF VALVE

under vacuum: fabric reinforcement & external coating are designed to provide very high external
resistance to oil and internal protection from nitrogen and atmospheric agents including ozone. TRANSFORMER TANK

PRONAL offers a large range of elastomers to meet specifications

(oil type, working temperatures…) and a wide range of shapes and sizes
to fit every requirement. Accessories Flexible tanks

PRONAL’s advantages VTR
• CONSERVATOR ATTACHMENT
Lugs are installed on the conservator Pneumatic lifting bags are an alternative lifting method to insert/adjust
• High quality rubber spacers into the winding of the coil.
welded attachment hook.
• Wide range of working temperatures from - 50 °c to + 120 °c
VTR are available in several sizes, thicknesses, working pressures.
• Reliability: maintenance free product (Contact us for more technical info).
• No contact between oil & air: no oil pollution, no condensation, VTR are inserted between the winding and are then inflated.
no oxidation, no hydrolysis They smoothly lift the winding and allow the spacer insertion/adjustment.

• Vulcanized-in flange: no possible leakage !

Calculation formula
Due to their special features, Pronal lifting bags prevent:
• Interior fabric reinforcement at points of contact to avoid punctures Calculations of a rubber bag used in a cylindrical conservator: • Stress on the winding that could cause damage.
X (mm) = length of conservator + Y - diameter of conservator
• Excellent tightness to oil/gases and water vapour y (mm) = (Π x conservator diameter) + 40 mm
• Damages to the insulating paperboard.
• Quick-Response manufacturing 2
Z (mm) = X - Y - 200 mm
X: Flat length of the STP
Y: Flat width of the STP
Z: Distance between lugs
Note: Rubber bag dimensions when fully deflated
