1. A system for monitoring and treating transformer oil within an associated on-line electric transformer comprising:
(A) an oil filtration system comprising:
(1) a first filter container comprising a first filter medium that removes acids dissolved in the transformer oil from the transformer oil; and,(2) a second filter container comprising a second filter medium that removes moisture from the transformer oil; (B) an oil movement system that moves the transformer oil from the associated on-line transformer, through the transformer oil filtration system, and back into the associated on-line transformer; the oil movement system comprising a pump; (C) a housing located near the associated on-line electric transformer that houses the first and second filter containers and the pump; and, (D) a control and monitoring system that:
(1) comprises a hydrogen sensor that: (a) is positioned within the housing; and,(b) senses the amount of hydrogen in the transformer oil;
(2) comprises a moisture sensor that: (a) is positioned within the housing; and, (b) senses the amount of moisture and temperature of the transformer oil;(3) comprises a control module that: (a) is mounted to the housing; and, (b) receives and displays information from the hydrogen and moisture sensors;(4) comprises a monitoring dashboard remote from the housing that wirelessly receives and displays information from the hydrogen and moisture sensors;(5) determines parts per million (PPM) of moisture in the transformer oil;(6) determines the temperature of the transformer oil;(7) determines saturation of moisture in the in the transformer oil;(8) sets off an alarm or alert when certain predetermined operating conditions occur; and,(9) posts the information from the hydrogen and moisture sensors on an internet based data center. |
