A. MAIN EQUIPMENT

The entire operation control of the mobile transformer test van is performed from the operatorarea. Direct access to equipment interface is granted via a sophisticated touch screen panelcomputer.The equipment is ergonomically integrated in the test van in order to make it esthetic appealingas well as functional to maintain. Each unit can be easily removed from its position and theoperator can use it in the field, independently.The installed equipment is a modular system and the operator can perform many more tests thanthose required using the same installed equipment. Besides, the design of the test van is allowingend users to expand the testing capability by using additional modules which can be easilyinstalled inside. A transparent separation wall allows the operator to have complete andcontinuous visibility of the technical area. All operation modes, techniques and safety controlare fully integrated in the system and permit the following:

· safety system control: door locks, internal/external emergency stop buttons, safety keyswitch, step voltage control - ground to vehicle chassis, external safety box, overvoltageand over current protection;

· control and visual identification that the test van is connected properly to the mainssupply;

· selection of operating modes via changeover safety switch;· control of power to the equipment

4. Franeo 800 Sweep Frequency Response Analyzer

Mechanical or electrical problems in power transformer windings, contacts or cores are the resultof: extraordinarily high mechanical forces, shocks due to transportation and seismic activities, ormains power failures such as high short-circuit currents. Problems such as these will notnecessarily lead to a breakdown, but a power transformer‘s ability to withstand furthermechanical loads will be drastically reduced.

* Franeo 800 Sweep Frequency Response Analyzer * Franeo 800 Wiring diagram scheme

These problems can be identified with the new FRANEO 800, the successor to the well-established FRAnalyzer, by using the Sweep Frequency Response Analysis (SFRA) principle.FRANEO 800 performs measurements in a frequency domain. It is robust against broadband andnarrowband noise and thus, it is able to achieve a high signal-to-noise ratio. SFRA is a non-invasive measurement method and based on a comparison of actual and reference measurements.

5. Dirana FDS – PDC Dielectric Response Analyzer

For power transformers, the moisture content is one of the most important parametersdetermining the remaining lifetime. Moisture in oil-paper insulated power and instrumenttransformers is caused by paper aging or enters the transformer via leaky seals or breathing. Itleads to reduced breakdown strength and an accelerated aging of the insulation.
