There comes a time in one’s life when they should ask themselves a difficult question: Is it time to change my power transformer, or should I try to rebuild it and raise it?
If such considerations have crossed your mind, an excellent place to start is an on -demand element on this web, which is presented by Ryan House, Smart Asset Administration: OLTC Retrophite Strategy that maximizes transformer value.
During an hour -long presentation and conversation, the technical webinar highlights the standards and implementation strategies of real -world decision that use utility transformer life expansion options. Representatives of Ren House show how modern retrofit technology is getting successful results in a diverse utility environment.
When the conversation is on the installed transformers, their name plates, types and key aspects of a site when an OLTC is considered. Ryan Hauson has stopped Wactip UT-LTX Product, Westing House UVW and Reinhausen RMT-1, and two other types of retrofits, and two other types.
“Retrfits on the table are the best options on the table,” said Victor Castano, a manager and bolt on technical specialist. “If you have a transformer that is 20 to 30 years old, the transformer is still in good shape. If we retrieve, we can give another 20, 25 years or longer to this unit.”
Castono examined the emergency reaction situation to large -scale asset management measures, examined the practical diagnosis method and planning planning concerns that separate the winning retroofs from failed investment. He pointed out that modern vacuum interference technology provides rehabilitation -free reliability for 500,000 operations, while supporting the 25 -year life extension goals.
The Ryan House team shares insights, from emergency reaction situation to massive asset management measures, providing viable intelligence for your strategic planning process.
“This is an easy solution,” Castano said during the recent technical webinar on this factor. “This is a much cheaper solution than replaced the entire top changer or the entire transformer. When we retrieve it, you do not need to remove the transformer. There is no cutting or welding, and we can do these retroofs in less than a week.”
At the end of the webinar, VP, Bill Heroin, a Castono and Ryan House service solution, raised questions from engaging audiences. A participants wanted to know who was responsible for determining the integrity of transformer vending, insulation age, etc. Is it a revenue, transmission manufacturer, utility, or someone else?
The heroin explained, “Generally, the utility knows the history of their transformer.” But we contribute with utility and have tools that can actually evaluate it… If you have taken care of your oil and insulation package, you should keep moisture, heat and oxygen on your own.
Another partner asked about the implementation of Ryan House’s artificial intelligence (AI).
The heroine replied, “We have a vast AI program that we are working and using in Germany, and we are taking it to the United States right now.” “We’re using it for a lot of analysis of this data. We’re using [AI] To try to create a better model so we can support customer needs.
