Flexible Seperators / Air
Cell
|
| |
| Product
Features |
 |
The
Flexible Separator (Air
Cell) is fitted inside
the conservators of oil
cooled power Transformers. |
 |
It
compensates transformer
oil volume displacement
due to temperature variation
while in operation |
 |
Protect
against water vapour |
 |
Suppress
gas bubble formation in
the transformer oil. |
 |
It
provides permanent, flexible
and non-porous barrier
between the transformer
oil and air. |
|
| Construction
|
 |
The
Flexible Separator is
an air bag made of strong,
flexible rubber
coated fabric that provides
resistance to heat, punctures
and fatigue. |
 |
Its
outer coating has good
oil resistance, while
the inner coating has
good ozone and weather
resistance. |
 |
The
adapter of the flexible
separator is made of structural
steel
(Fe-410-S) and is zinc
plated and passivated. |
|
|
|
|
|
| |
| |
| |
| Dimensions
and Sizes |
The dimensions of the Flexible separators
are determined to the size of the conservators.
