Essential DGA monitoring for transformers
Transformers are key and expensive components of the electrical grid and knowledge of their
health condition is essential to having a reliable network. When a transformer’s insulation system is
overstressed, gases are produced that dissolve in the oil. Dissolved Gas-in-oil Analysis (DGA) is recognized
as the best indicator of developing faults.
The Hydran™ 201Ti is a small and easy to setup continuous Dissolved Gas-in-oil Analysis (DGA) monitor.
It provides the basic information used by IEEE® Standard C57.104 and can be used as an essential first
line of defence for the transformers in your fleet to obtain advance warning of a failure condition and
minimize the risk of an unplanned outage.
