TRANSFIXOn-Line DGA andMoisture for Transformers

Page 2: TRANSFIX (New)

The TRANSFIX is a new generation of on-line DGAequipment giving essential insight into the condition oftransformers.

Extensive use proves that TRANSFIX providesreliable information and represents an invaluable tool forAsset Management:

DGA & A Water8 gases plus moisture and nitrogen.

No ConsumablesNo carrier gases or calibration gases required.

Minimal MaintenanceReduces expense and inconvenience for user.

Comms OptionsExtensive local and remote communications options.

Alarm SettingsSophisticated programmable alarm system.

Easy InstallationSimple, straightforward procedures.

Local DisplayLCD Display provides up to date information on site.

Hourly SamplingSampling rates settable down to once per hour.

Kelman PerceptionPC software allows downloading, graphical display,trending and analysis of results 3). Analysis ofresults using gas levels, Duval’s Triangle, ratios andrates of change. Optional automatic downloading of

Load MonitoringAllows results to be analysed with the loading of thetransformer.

External SensorsAdditional inputs are available for transformer loadsensor and up to 5 other sensors.

Reliable Gas ExtractionNo use of membranes or vacuum extraction.

Accurate knowledge of thecondition of transformersis essential for all electricalnetworks and on-line monitoring of critical transformers isincreasingly vital. Thisinformation allows valuableassets to be maximised andexpensive failures to beavoided.

Dissolved Gas Analysis (DGA)and moisture measurement ofthe insulation oil are recognisedas the most important testsfor condition assessment oftransformers.

AvoidAA costly unplannedoutages.

Transformer faults detected intheir infancy.

Transformer output optimizedsafely, maximising asset.

Transformer ageing can becalculated.

TypeTT of fault can befrom results.

TECHNICAL FEATURESAA

Uses photo-acoustic spectroscopy to give highlyreliable results.

8 target gases plus moisture measured.

Estimation of nitrogen and total gas content for freebreathing transformers.

Full embedded processor – over 2 years of data at adefault sampling rate of 4-hourly, stored internally.

Non-volatile memory storage to prevent loss of data.

Discrete sampling gives more rapid response to gasrises. No ‘averaging’ of DGA results.A

ALARMS

TwoTT Sunlight Visible front panel LED Arrays (Redand Yellow)YY and three Alarm Relay contacts, each

All alarms can be set or changed locally or remotelyusing Kelman Perception PC Software.

Six alarm setting screens or scenarios are availablethat can set alarms based on the level of eightgasses, TDCG, and moisture, and rates of changefor each gas.

Each screen can activate one of three alarm relays,the red or yellow front panel indicator or send a SMSmessage if equipped with the optional cellular GSMor CDMA modem.A

Four dryNO and NC provided; 5A 250A VAC, 5VV A 30VDC.A

Caution mode and alarm mode can be used toincrease sampling frequency.

The alarm results of each screen are independent of the other screens.

COMMUNICATIONSAA

TwoTT separate channels for remote communications,plus local USB connection and Ethernet connection.

Communications protocols supported includeMODBUS, MODBUS/TCP, DNP3.0 and IEC61850.PP

Modules available for connection via RS232, RS485,Ethernet, PSTN modem and GSM or CDMA wirelessmodems.
