Transformer silicone moisture absorber
Introduction to Transformer Silicone Moisture Absorber
Transformer silicone moisture absorber is a device used to remove and dry moisture from the air in transformer or transformer oil storage tanks, usually installed on the air inlet of the transformer or transformer oil storage tank. Its main function is to keep the interior of the transformer dry and clean, thereby ensuring its normal operation and extending its service life.
Characteristics of Transformer Silicone Moisture Absorber
1. High moisture absorption: Silicone can absorb a large amount of moisture over a wide temperature range (such as 10 ℃ -40 ℃), usually exceeding 20% of its own weight.
2. Good breathability: The microporous structure of silicone allows moisture to pass through and be adsorbed smoothly, while maintaining air circulation.
3. Reusability: The silicone moisture absorber can be regenerated by drying after saturation, thereby being reused and reducing maintenance costs.
4. High temperature resistance: Silicone material has good high temperature resistance and can maintain stable moisture absorption performance at high temperatures.
5. Indication function (for color changing silicone): Some moisture absorbers use color changing silicone, whose color changes with the degree of water absorption, making it easy for maintenance personnel to observe the status of the moisture absorber and replace it in a timely manner.
Scope of use of silicone moisture absorber for transformers
Silicone moisture absorbers for transformers are widely used in various power transformers and transformers, especially large transformers that require long-term stable operation. Due to the high sensitivity of the internal insulation oil of transformers to moisture, moisture may cause problems such as decreased insulation performance and deterioration of oil quality. Therefore, silicone moisture absorbers play an important role in protecting transformers from moisture damage.
In addition, silicone moisture absorbers are also suitable for other electrical equipment or systems that require a dry and clean environment, such as switchgear, cable trenches, etc. In these situations, silicone moisture absorbers can also effectively remove moisture from the air and protect equipment from moisture damage.
