Different Applications

 

MTP Type

Applications
For all transformers from 3 to 1 000 MVA or above, located in:
Power plants and any industrial site whose production could be affected by the loss of a transformer
All the transmission and distribution substations
Industrial plants with high explosion risks (oil refineries, offshore plants, mines)
Environmental sensitive areas
Sites not equipped with firewalls and/or Oil
Storage Pits (the Transformer Protector is the sole technology able to secure existing installations
in this case)

Characteristics

Every Depressurization Set has a Decompression Chamber.
The explosive Oil-Gas mixture is evacuated to an Oil-Gas Separation Tank
The explosive gases are channeled to a safe location
The Oil-Gas Separation Set can be shared between multiple transformers when not located too far from each other. For more information on the different applications of the Transformer Protector, please refer to document 8.


STP Type

Differences with the MTP
The STP only protects small transformers. This is why the Oil-Gas Separation Tank is used as a Decompression Chamber called Depressurization Tank. Also, there is no Isolation Valve, no Absorber and no Conservator Shutter when the transformer has no Conservator.

Applications
For all small indoor transformers from 0.1 to 3 MVA such as:
Residential and office buildings, towers
Schools, universities, hotels, airports, hospitals
Underground substations
Industrial plants with high explosion risks
(oil refineries, offshore plants, mines)
Railway network power supply stations
Environmental sensitive areas
