GE Kelman Transport X Portable DGA & Moisture In Oil
Dissolved Gas Analysis (DGA) has long been recognized as the single most powerful technique for fault detection/prediction in mineral oil filled transformers. It has been at the forefront of progressive utilities’ monitoring strategies for the last four decades to avoid expensive failures, extend the life of their ageing assets and help develop an asset replacement strategy.
Gas and moisture measurements have traditionally been performed by collecting an oil sample on site and sending it to a remote laboratory that would process the sample and eventually provide gas measurements that would then need to be analyzed by an expert. The length (and cost) of the cycle can vary from several hours to several days depending on the location and urgency.
The Kelman™ TRANSPORT X is a fully portable device, that can be easily carried to site and quickly setup in the field. It can perform DGA and moisture measurements in approximately 30 minutes, enabling on site assessment of the situation. Hence it has often been referred to as a “lab in a box”.
It is capable of analyzing mineral insulating oil for diagnostic gases and moisture to a resolution and accuracy comparable to that achieved in the laboratory. The TRANSPORT X has an embedded PC which allows for immediate analysis of the results utilizing embedded transformer diagnostic algorithms.
Benefits
- Fully portable and economical
- Measurement of all 7 diagnostic gases plus moisture in oil
- Simple to use with on-screen step by step instructions
- Fast and full diagnostic in approximately 30 minutes
- Immediate insight into transformer condition
- Perfect for responding to alarms, trip events and for urgent field decision making
- Ideal complement to GE’s single gas online DGA monitors for transformer diagnostics
Applications
As the average age of generation, transmission and distribution transformers increases, the possibility of rapid deterioration and even catastrophic failures also increases. Traditional annual lab DGA analysis is no longer sufficient and can now be complemented or even replaced with on-site DGA analysis using the Kelman TRANSPORT X.
The TRANSPORT X offers power utility and industrial sector customers accurate, economical and portable dissolved gas analysis and diagnostic in an easy to use portable instrument also suited for :
- Mission critical industrial transformers
- Distribution transformers
- Buchholz relay gas
- Tap changer tanks
- Instrument transformers
- Oil filled circuit breakers
Features
