Technical description of equipment

The oil purification plant CMM-2,2 is designed for removal of solids, water and
gasses from insulation oils, with viscosity not exceeding 70 mm/s2 (cSt) at 50°С.

The plant is used during mounting, maintenance and operation of oil-filled
equipment.

Design and configuration of equipment

The oil purification plantCMM-2.2 (seefigure 1) consistsof oil heater 5; vacuum column 1; cartridge filters 6; gear pumps2 and 3; vacuum pump7; control cabinet 8; metal base-frame mounted on castor wheels. All subunits are connected with pipelines 4.

Casing shall be provided sides and back doors on fabricated frame works. The equipment and Control cabinet equipment can be enclosed and protected against climatic conditions. Sound and noise protection (insulation tape) is provided.

Oil heater 5 (see figure 1) is a cylindrical heat-insulated vessel, which contains ceramic electrical heaters (capacity 3 kW each) and equipped with inlet and outlet pipelines, as well as drainage valve. To prevent oil overheating, temperature controller sensor and thermostat are provided
in the heater.

Heater has a demountable structure to provide easy heating elements replacement.

Optionally heater can be equipped with the temperature control system (TCS) consisting of temperature controller with PID regulator “Autonics” and power regulators “Carlo Gavazzi”. This temperature control system allow to regulate the oil heating temperature by means of change of pre-sets of temperature (in 0C or 0F) and/or time of heating (in hours/minutes) using the controller’s buttons.

TCS is able to apply load gradually in order to prevent oil overheating and impulsive load on power circuit. Contact your service manager for details.

Mesh filter is installed at the unit inlet and is designed for mechanical contaminants release. Filtration fineness isinfluencedbya 200 micron brass mesh mounted inside the case. It can be easily removed and cleaned.

Inlet and Outlet Pumps are positive displacement gear pumpswith electric drive, equipped with safety valve (max. 5 bar overpressure). Power consumption – up to 2,2 kW, Flow rate – up to 5400 LPH, Outlet pressure – 2 bar. Pumps are controlledfromthecontrolpanel.

The vacuum chamber is a cylindrical heat-insulated vessel equipped with set of microfiber coalescers installed in its upper part. Coalescers design allows for oil intensively exhaling gases and moisture.

Oil level in column remains between upper and lower limits determined during manufacturing without the need of operator’s supervision. Lower-upper level sensors control inlet-outlet pumps.

To prevent foam forming by highly saturated and watered oil at the initial stage of oil processing the vacuum column is equipped with a solenoid air release valve controlled by a foam sensor.

Inlet and outlet pipelines are equipped with coarse cartridge filter and fine cartridge filter, which also contain magnet block. Filtration fineness is2µm. The magnets should be cleaned when filter elements (cartridges) are cleaned or replaced. To eliminate air within oil gain as well as to swallow it within oil drainage, filter uses air relieve plug.

For ultimate pressure (vacuum) indication, vacuum gauge is installed in the vacuum vessel. Measurement range -1….0 bar (kgs/cm2).

 Principle of operation

CMM-2.2 plant can be operated in the following modes:

1. Oil thermo-vacuum
dehydration.

2. Filtration with heating

Operation in «Oil thermo-vacuum dehydration» mode.

Treating oil is supplied by inlet pump, through inlet valve, mesh filter, coarse cartridge filter to oil heater. After it is heated it is supplied to vacuum column activating filter (coalescer). The vacuum is maintained in chamber by the vacuum pump.The vacuum rate is regulated by adjustment valveand controlled by vacuum meter.

Inside the coalescer oil is being dehydrated and degassed. Gases and vapour are exhausted by vacuum pump through moisture separator into atmosphere. Degassed oil is pumped out by outlet pump through fine cartridge filter and non-return valve into the clean oil tank (or directly into transformer).

Operation in «Filtration with heating» mode.

Treating oil is supplied by inlet pump, through inlet valve, mesh filter, coarse cartridge filter to oil heater. After it is heated it is supplied to the vessel for purified (treated) oil. Oil is preliminary heated to the required temperature in the heater.
