A dehumidifier for an electrical-equipment air intake has an outer housing wall and a floor of a material with a high specific thermal conductivity downwardly closing the outer housing wall, having a downwardly tapering funnel-shaped inner surface formed with a central downwardly open port, and having a rounded edge where the surface meets the port. An inner air-permeable housing inside the outer housing wall holds a moisture-absorbing mass so that air drawn in through the port can pass through the mass and then into a space between the inner and outer housings. A moisture sensor is provided between the housings and a heater in the mass. A controller connected between the heater and the sensor energizes the heater and cooks moisture out of the mass such that the moisture condenses on the floor and runs over the edge out through the port.

Air dehumidifier for oil-insulated transformers, choke coils and steps switches

An air demoisturizer for an oil expansion vessel of an electrical power unit like an oil-filled transformer, tap changer or choke, has a heating element in the body of absorbent and utilizes a heat-regeneratable absorbent which is cut off by a moisture detector from the oil expansion vessel when the absorbent is saturated and is thermally regenerated. The demoisturizing column is provided in line with an oil receiver through which the dry air is passed before reaching the oil expansion vessel.

Air demoisturizer for oil-insulated transformers, chokes and tap changers

A process for parallel control of tap transformers in which individual voltage regulators of parallel operating transformers are connected to a single parallel processor by serial data lines and the measured values of the voltage and current amplitudes and the phase angles are transmitted by the voltage regulators to the parallel processor, an interference variable for each voltage regulator is calculated in the parallel processor from the partial load current and the circulating reactive current and is transmitted with the partial load current by the serial data lines to the voltage regulators, and each voltage regulator then calculates an LDC variable for load drop compensation, by summing the measured voltage, the received interference variable and the LDC variable provides a controlled variable or voltage value which constitutes the new set point with respect to which the voltage regulator then controls the transformer to which it is assigned.

Process and apparatus for parallel control of tapped transformers

A multiphase stepping transformer wherein a closed vacuum interrupter at each phase is opened before a respective stepping switch is advanced is controlled by continuously monitoring current flow through the interrupters. Before the interrupters are opened an error signal is generated unless all of the monitored current flows lie to one side of a predetermined threshold. After the interrupters are opened an error signal is generated if current flow is detected through any of the interrupters. Advance of the stepping switches is blocked on generation of any error signal. The apparatus includes for each interrupter a respective current detector, a light-emitting diode energized by the respective detector, a light receiver associated with each diode, and a light-transmitting cable connecting each diode with the respective receiver.

Monitoring system for step-type switching transformer

A load-switching circuit for a tapped transformer utilizes identical netws of antiparallel thyristors bridged by commutating networks having a condenser in series with a damping impedance. According to the invention, the blocking of one pair of thyristors causes the energization of a relay to operate a switch contact shunting the damping impedance of the blocking pair so that its condenser functions as a voltage spike surge suppressor.
