Remote Filling Device
Finest hairline cracks may occur on porcelain insulators for circuit breakers or other SF6 insulated electrical equipment such as measuring or current transformers during transportation or as a result of material stress. Filling the gas compartment with SF6 may lead to dangerous bursting of the insulator. DILO designed a remote filling device to solve this issue.
Thanks to the CommGuard Web, filling unit it is now possible. Finally, porcelain insulators can be filled safely from a distance of up to 100 m. This unit enables the operator to control and monitor the fully automated filling process using a smartphone, tablet or laptop from outside the danger zone.
The device is equipped with an external temperature sensor and fills the gas compartment to a constant gas density. The temperature-compensated filling pressure is thus achieved with a precision of ± 50 mbar. Furthermore, there is the option of connecting DILO weighing scales to the unit and the gas quantity filled in can be precisely recorded (e.g. K091R67, 3-001-R021 ± 20 g).
Different types of gas compartments can be added and recalled in the data base. Data recording completes the functions of the compact unit and sets new quality standards.
Other features:
- Robust and light portable unit
- Simple operation using smartphone, tablet or laptop via WLAN
- Visual and acoustic signalling of system conditions on site
- Temperature compensation of the filling pressure
- Recording of the SF6 weight
- Data connection via FTP interface
