In case of a short-term immobilization time of maximum 4 weeks without an
oil conservator, dropping the oil level in the on-load tap-changer head by
about 5 liters is also sufficient.
Transport without oil fill
1.
NOTICE!
Completely empty the oil compartment of the on-load tap-
changer if the transformer is completely emptied of oil.If this is not done,
the oil compartment may be damaged.
2.
Preserve the interior of the oil compartment in the same way as the
transformer (for example by filling with N2).
For longer immobilization periods, you must connect and operate the motor-
drive unit heating.
For downtimes prior to commissioning of more than 8 weeks and operation
interruptions more than 2 weeks, you must connect and operate the heating
to avoid condensation water in the interior of the protective housing.

WARNING
Danger of death or severe injury!
Danger of death or severe injury from explosive gases under the on-load
tap-changer head cover!
► Ensure that there are no naked flames, hot surfaces or sparks (for ex-
ample caused by static charging) in the immediate surroundings and
that none occur.
► De-energize all auxiliary circuits (for example tap-change supervisory
control, pressure relief device, pressure-operated relays) before remov-
ing the on-load tap-changer head cover.
► Do not operate any electric devices during the work (for example risk of
sparks caused by impact wrench).
► Only use conductive and grounded hoses, pipes and pump equipment
that are approved for flammable liquids.
1.
De-energize all auxiliary circuits (for example the tap-change superviso-
ry control, pressure relief device, pressure monitoring device).
2.
If the stop-cock (slide valve) between the oil conservator and oil com-
partment is open, open the air-vent valve E1 on the on-load tap-changer
head.
3.
Drain off the gas from under the on-load tap-changer cover. Ensure suf-
ficient fresh air (for example in transformer cells and work tents).
4.
Once the gas has been drained off and the oil is flowing out of the air-
vent valve, close this valve and close the stop-cock between the oil con-
servator and oil compartment.
