What regular tasks are included in Air Drying System Maintenance for sustained transformer efficiency?

Regular tasks included in Air Drying System Maintenance are essential for sustaining transformer efficiency and ensuring the longevity of both the system and the transformer. Routine inspections are conducted to identify and address any wear or damage to components such as fans, filters, and heating elements. Cleaning and replacing filters ensures that particulate contaminants are effectively removed and do not impede airflow or recontaminate the oil. Checking and calibrating sensors for humidity and temperature guarantees accurate monitoring and control of drying conditions. Lubricating moving parts like motors and bearings prevents mechanical failures and reduces noise levels. Inspecting and maintaining electrical connections ensures reliable operation of control panels and automated systems. Verifying the functionality of safety features, such as alarms and emergency shut-offs, ensures that the system operates safely under all conditions. Additionally, testing the overall performance of the Air Drying System periodically helps detect any inefficiencies or malfunctions early, allowing for timely repairs or adjustments. Keeping detailed maintenance logs aids in tracking the system’s condition and planning future maintenance activities, thereby sustaining transformer efficiency and preventing unexpected downtime.
