DRY OUT BY VACUUM PULLING, NITROGEN FILLING & EXTERNAL HEATING

Preparation:
Transformer after completion of dismantling work at site, are suitably blanked with gaskets &
blanking plates inside an enclosed shed. A temporary steel structure for mounting of heaters
at suitable distance from main tank wall at different places and heights to be erected.
Then full vacuum shall be pulled & maintained for sufficient time. Also, condensate collection
is to be monitored.
Nitrogen filling:
Dry nitrogen is to be pushed inside the tank to achieve positive pressure.
Heating:
Transformer tank is then heated through heaters to raise the inside temperature of tank,
which is to be monitored by thermocouples. Maintain winding temperature (WTI) @ 65 to 70
C.
Condensate collection:
Heaters shall be switched OFF, full vacuum is to be pulled again & condensation shall be
monitored.
The transformer shall be filled again with dry nitrogen, dew point of nitrogen inside the
transformer tank shall be measured & temperature is to be recorded at periodic intervals.
The subsequent heating of tank, vacuum pulling & condensate monitoring cycle shall be
continued till the required parameters are achieved.
Second dry out:

With the extraction of moisture from solid insulating material of the transformer, the coils &
cleat become loose. It is therefore imperative to tighten the winding coils & other clamping,
hardware along with core bolts.
The transformer is again boxed up & blanked after hot tightening. The cycle of vacuum
pulling, nitrogen filling & heating are to be continued till the desirable dew point of the
transformer is achieved.
Final Dry out by oil Filtration:
Finally, the transformer having been dried at site with the above mentioned method, shall be
cleared for further erection & oil circulation by filter machine till the desired oil parameters are
obtained before charging.
As per the terms & conditions, the drying out of core-coil assembly is to be carried out by
vacuum pulling, Nitrogen filling and External heating method. During this drying out
process, dry nitrogen is to be pushed inside the tank to achieve positive pressure.
In this regard, it is to clarify that, the dew point of the inlet of Nitrogen to be measured and will
be of the order of -50 C or below. The cycle of vacuum pulling, nitrogen filling & heating are
to be continued till dew point of nitrogen is achieved as per the table given below.

with nitrogen or should be subjected to
vacuum. Before draining the oil, the
external
Surfaces of tank & fitting should be
cleaned to locate the point of oil leakage.

(i) Un tanking diverter switches.
(ii) Hot oil washing of diverter & selector
chamber after un
tanking diverter switches
(iii) Cleaning of fixed & moving contact
(iv) Tightening of all the clamping,
connectors & hardware
(v) Supply & replacement of all the oil
seals & gaskets
(vi) Greasing of gears in driving
mechanism
(vii) Replacement lubrication oil in gear
box
Note: For any major repair & replacement
of spares, GETCO will make necessary
arrangement.
DRY OUT BY VACUUM PULLING,
NITROGEN FILLING & EXTERNAL
HEATING
Preparation :
Transformer after completion of
repair / overhauling at site, are
suitably blanked with gaskets &
blanking plates inside an enclosed
shed. A temporary steel structure
for mounting heaters at suitable
from tank wall at different heights
of the tank wall.
Then full vacuum shall be pulled &
maintained for sufficient time. Also,
condensate collection is to be
monitored.
Nitrogen filling :
Dry nitrogen is to be pushed
inside the tank to achieve positive
pressure.
Heating :
Transformer tank is then heated
through heaters to raise the inside
temperature of tank, which is to be

31278.33

monitored by thermocouples.
Condensate collection :
Heaters shall be switched OFF, full
vacuum is to be pulled again &
condensation shall be monitored.
The transformer shall be filled again
with dry nitrogen, dew point of
nitrogen inside the transformer tank
shall be measured & temperature is
to be recorded at periodic intervals.

The subsequent heating of tank,

vacuum
pulling
&
condensate
monitoring cycle shall be continued
till the required parameters are
achieved.
Second dry out :
With the extraction of moisture
from solid insulating material of the
transformer, the coils & clearing
become loose. It is therefore
imperative to tighten the winding
coils & other clamping hardware
along with core bolts.
Te transformer is again boxed up &
blanked after hot tightening. The
cycle of vacuum pulling, nitrogen
filling & are to be continued till the
desirable
dew
point
of
the
transformer is achieved.
Final Dry out by oil Filtration :
Finally, the transformer having
been dried at site with the above
mentioned method, shall be cleared
for further erection & oil circulation
by filter machine till the desired oil
parameters are obtained before
charging.
Oil filtration: After completion of the
drying out cycles, the new / used oil
stored in oil storage tank to be filtered till
the oil BDV
& PPM value are achieved as required by
IS 1866 2000. Oil filtration should be
done through a separate degassing
chamber with separate vacuum pump to
get better dehydration of oil. Oil filling in
main tank under vacuum keeping
radiators
Isolated after ensuring BDV more than 60
& ppm less than 10 in storage tank. Oil

filling in radiator banks and conservator

tank after ensuring BDV & ppm value in
storage tank as above. Mixing of main
tank oil with radiator oil and filtration of
mixed up oil. The filter machine used for
filtration should be two stages, high
vacuum machine of minimum 6000 LPH
capacity. After filtration, the oil will be
tested for BDV in presence of GETCO
Engineer at site. The BDV should meet
requirement as per IS: 1866-2000. After
filtration the oil sample sent to ERDA for
testing as per IS: 1866-2000. The result
should meet requirement as per IS:18662000. Testing of oil for DGA at
ERDA.(New filter pads to be provided in
presence of GETCO engineer before
starting filtration work).
Degreasing and derusting of all the
external surface of tank and fittings.
Applying one coat of metal primer at the
rusted spots.
Spray painting of the transformer tank
internally with two coats of oil resistant
paint and externally with two coats of
high glossy
Heat resistive gray paint. (Main tank +
Radiators + Conservator + Accessories +
Fittings)
Testing of transformer (as per attached
sheet) at site in presence of GETCO
engineer and commissioning of
transformer.
