The MINITRANS is a low-cost on-line discrete multi-gas DGA transformer monitoring unit.

​

Based on the same core technology as the highly successful TRANSFIX, the MINITRANS is a lower cost alternative, monitoring three key gases: Hydrogen, Acetylene and Carbon Monoxide (in ppm) plus moisture in oil (%RH & ppm). The measurement of these gases allows the user to detect a wide range of developing faults including arcing.

 

Benefits

 

• Transformer faults detected in their infancy, minimizing costly unplanned outages and equipment failure.

• Type of fault may be indicated from results.

• Photo Acoustic Technology – no costly consumables/calibration gases required.

​

Features

​

• DGA & Humidity – Three fault gases (Hydrogen, Acetylene and Carbon Monoxide) plus moisture.

• Easy Installation – Simple, straightforward procedures.

• Hourly Sampling – Real-time DGA results down to once per hour.

• Communication Options – Extensive local and remote communications options.

• Alarm Settings – Sophisticated programmable alarm system.

• Acceleration of sampling rate – automatic increase in sampling rates if gas concentrations exceed caution or alarm settings.

• Minimal Maintenance – Reduces expense and inconvenience for user.

​

Applications

​

• Medium and large sized transformers.

• Low/medium risk and/or consequence of failure.

• Distribution, Transmission and industrial transformers.

• Discrete level of gases for entry level diagnostics.
