2. Withstand voltage means that use the standard oil cup to do the test.
6.2 Storage of reactor transported with gas
6.2.1 Storage with gas
6.2.1.1 As for the reactor transported with gas to the site, if the gas pressure and
insulation strength of residue oil in tank shall meet the stipulation in table 2, it is
permitted to store for short time, but the storage time shall not exceed 3 months.
Otherwise it shall be stored filled with oil according to clause 6.2.2, and if it not meet
with table 2, contact immediately with the manufacturer to solve it well.
6.2.1.2 When reactor stored with gas, the pressure monitoring device is needed. The
requirements and pressure of the gas is the same as stipulation of clause 3.2.2 and
3.2.3 of this manual.
6.2.1.3 During the period of storage with gas, check at least 2 times every day and
take a note of the pressure inside the tank and refilled gas amount. If the pressure
decreases quickly and the gas-consuming amount increases, it shows there is some
leakage. Check and take quick action to prevent the active part from moistening.
6.2.2 Storage with oil-filling and gas-releasing
9
Y0SB.460.5483
The working process and requirements for storage with oil-filling and gas-releasing
are as follows.
a)
Drain off the residue oil in the tank bottom fully. It is forbidden to refill residue
Oil-filling and gas-releasing: Open the butterfly valve on the top of tank (prevent
the moisture air, water, or sundries falling into the tank), and fill transformer oil which
meets the requirements in table 1 into tank from any valve on the lower part of tank.
c)
and continue filling oil and adjust the top oil to the position where its a little bit
higher than the normal oil level in the conservator, and release the air in the
conservator according to installation manual of conservator.
d)
During the period of storage with oil, check the external appearance of reactor
every 10 days. If any oil leakage is found out, take quick action. Take oil sample from
the tank for testing every 20 days, and the oil properties must meet the requirements
in table 1 and meanwhile the notes have to be taken.
6.3 Storage of reactor transported with oil
6.3.1 Oil sample shall be taken from the tank for testing after reactor arrives at site. If
the oil properties meet the requirement in table 1, then install reactor according to
clause 6.2.2.c) of this manual and store with oil. After that the check and test shall be
performed according to the requirements in the clause 6.2.2.d) of this manual. If the
oil sample cannot meet the requirement in table 1 after testing, the next work cannot
be conducted. Make an analysis of whether its moistened according to table 2 and
contact with the manufacturer.
6.3.2 If the reactor will not be installed within 3 months, the oil conservator must be
installed. Fill qualified transformer oil to the height corresponding to the temperature
of oil conservator, and install dehydrating breather on the oil conservator. Refilling oil
must be filled from the butterfly valve on the tank cover or oil conservator to prevent
the air entering the active part. If the oil conservator cannot be installed in time, the
space between top oil and tank cover where without oil shall be vacuumed, and fill the
dry air with a dew point of less than 40 and a pressure of 0.01MPa~0.03MPa into
this space to conduct monitoring. The check and test also shall be done according to
the requirements in clause 6.2.2.d) of this manual.
10

preparation work shall be done well. The main equipments and tools used for
assembly are shown in table B.1 of appendix B.
7.1.4 Clean all the accessories strictly to guarantee its internal clean and without dirty
substances. Accessories, which are not cleaned, are not permitted to install on the
reactor.
7.1.5 The sealing surface of each connection flange shall be cleaned by using cloth
dipped with ethanol (without water), and make sure it clean. Check if the sealing
surface is clean, flat and without damage. Check if the sealing gasket is complete,
without deformation, crack and other defects. Confirm the item no. of such parts as
tubes.
7.1.6 When tightening flange, tighten each bolt alternately and gradually in diagonal
direction with tightening torque wrench (recommended tightening torque value see
Table 3). Finally tighten all bolts once again to ensure they have the same compaction
force.

7.2 Check of active part
Active part check can be divided into directly entering tank inspection without
removing cover and un-tanking inspection. If one of following conditions is met, it is
no need to carry out un-tanking inspection. But entering tank inspection must be
performed.
a)

7.2.2.1 In order to prevent moisture entering into active part, the following principle
shall be followed:
a) Un-tanking inspection shall be carried out in good weather( without wind and

24h
20h
16h
12h
Note:
1) When transformer manhole is opened to carry out inner inspection and wiring or
un-tanking inspection, active part will absorb moisture. So the exposure time shall be
controlled within specified period.
16
Y0SB.460.5483
2) When work inside the tank, dry air shall be filled into tank all the time to ensure
humidity inside the tank remain 50%.
3) When stop or finish inner work or assemble upper part of tank after finish
un-tanking inspection, cover the manhole or other hole immediately. Stop working at
night. If the air is filled in tank, each exposure time can be regarded as 4h. When the
air inside tank is replaced by dry air, the exposure time can be regarded as 2h.
4) The allowed exposure time of active part refers to Figure1.
5) If the exposure time exceeds the total exposed time stipulated in the above figure
due to some reason during work at site, it shall be controlled as per equivalent
exposure time. And evacuated before finish under the instruction of technician
assigned by manufacturer.

oil off; Drain residual oil from reactor filled with gas.
d)
Before lift the upper part of tank, open the cover of the turret in the middle of
The eyes should be forced at the same time when lift the upper of tank with
the angle between sling and plumb line not more than 30. The lifting beam can be
used if necessary to remain balance and to avoid the abnormal events like collision
and block of tank wall and active part.
f)
Lift the upper part of tank and lay down the horizontal sleeper or wooden
block to avoid the damage or contamination of seal of frame. The succeeding work
and lifting should be considered when choose the tank location.

exposure suit. Cut off the leakage source possibly to avoid the spilled transformer oil
entering into or spreading to the barrel-drain, water channel and soil. Use clay, sand,
soil or other noncombustible materials to absorb small amount of leakage timely. In
case of large amount of leakage, build circle levee or dig a pit to take in the leakage;
cover the leakage with foam to reduce steam damage; transfer the leakage to the tank
car or the special collector with anti-explosion pump, and then recycle or transport it
to the rubbish treatment place. At the same time, inform the local environmental
protection department timely.
A.5 Protection measures and other items
A.5.1 In case of skin touch repeatedly, wear the oil withstand protection gloves
(composition: polychloroprene, nitrile, acrylonitrile and butadiene rubber), exposure
suit and protection glasses in case of splash.
A.5.2 The transformer oil should be avoid of overheating or fire, or mixed loading,
mixed transportation and mixed storage with oxidant, halogen and edible chemistry.
The shipping container should be sealed, and the tank car for transportation should be
with grounding chains.
A.5.3 Recycles the rubbish according to the sorts, burn or reuse the dependent sorts to
avoid environmental pollution.
