Disc-Pak Filters

The use of ErtelAlsop Disc-Pak® Lenticular Filter Cartridge or AquaKv-Pak® Filter Cartridge assures effective moisture removal. The AquaKv-Pak® is available in several particle retentions to hold carbon particles and is specially formulated with water-retentive capabilities. The Pak® concept, originated by ErtelAlsop, helps to assure that transit oils such as circuit breaker, transformer oil and turbine lube oil can be returned to as new specifications. Power Utility Products Include:

Disc-Pak®

The Disc-Pak® cartridge is specially formulated for the precise filtration of liquids in the light to medium viscosity range. From applications such as lubricating oils, dielectric oils and coolants to syrups, beverages and perfumes, the Disc-Pak® may be used where particulate retention is the purpose of filtration. Disc-Pak® cartridges are available in several grades to allow retention down to 1 micron.

AquaKv-Pak®

The AquaKv-Pak® was specifically designed and developed for the retention of water contamination in transformer and turbine lube oils along with the retention of particulate down to the sub-micronic level. This Pak® concept was created to incorporate the particulate retention capabilities of the Disc-Pak® along with the enhanced capacity for the retention of free and dissolved water.

The AquaKv-Pak® demonstrates mechanical shutoff when fully saturated with water. Particle retention does not effect water-holding capacity, which has been documented at up to 120 ounces per full 9-cell Pak®. The AquaKv-Pak® and an ErtelAlsop enclosed Pak® system can recondition dielectric fluids to meet or exceed ASTM and manufacturers standards.

SF6 Gas

DILO Company

DILO is the world leader in SF6 maintenance equipment. With over 50 years of manufacturing SF6 technologies, DILO has a proven track record of commitment to excellence and quality. Over 1,500 recovery systems are sold world-wide annually – many to Original Equipment Manufacturers

SF6 Multi-Function Analyzer 

For verification of several parameters in one operation

Version 3-038-R… Multi-Analyzer with Return System

The Multi-Analyser SF6 is a battery-operated, compact, user- and maintenance-friendly device which guarantees high measuring accuracy. The unit allows di­fferent kinds of measurements and treatment of the measured gas in one of the following ways:» The measured gas can be stored in an internal storage vessel and pumped back into the gas compartment (up to 10 bar pe). For measurements on cylinders, vessels or gas compartments with higher pressure (max. inlet pressure 35 bar pe) a pressure reducer is not needed. If the gas should not be pumped back into the SF6 filled equipment, a cylinder can be connected directly to the outlet. It is not necessary to disconnect the device from the gas compartment, the vessel or cylinder with the higher pressure. An external gas collecting bag can be connected allowing continuous measurements (inlet pressure max. 35 bar pe) without pumping the gas back. The external bag can be emptied by using the Multi-Analyser SF6, a service cart or compressor unit.      

Benefits:

-No gas emissions during the measuring process-Modular interchangeability of all sensors

-Operation with or without battery (external power supply)

-Exchangeable battery (replacement and separate shipping is possible)

-Easy and user-friendly menu navigation via high quality 7″ capacitive color touch screen

-Optional remote control

-Automatic interval measurement is possible

-USB and LAN connection

-Storage of up to 500 measurement results with name

-Adjustable user languages: DE, EN, FR, ES, IT, PT, CZ, PL, CN, JPN, RUS

-Compact design, easy handling and transportation (installed in a trolley case)

This multi-functional device allows the determination of up to six quality parameters with only one measurement:

-SF6 concentration (%)

-Moisture concentration

-SO2 concentration (ppmv)

-Option: HF concentration (ppmv)

-Option: CO concentration (ppmv)

-Option: H2S concentration (ppmv)

B143R11

The compact and mobile small service cart meets all requirements for efficient SF6 gas handling in the medium voltage range. Compact and ergonomic design was the main focus for its construction.
