DESCRIPTION

The MXP5E comes with all the features needed for proper use of Velcon Superdri® Cartridges for dissolved water removal from transformer oil. Parallel flow through the two filter housings assures the proper flow rate through each SD-718 Superdri® cartridge. The unit is also valved so that series flow is possible for non-dissolved water oil handling applications, such as removal of dirt and free water. Use FO filter cartridges in the first housing to remove dirt particles. An Aquacon® cartridge in the second stage removes free water. The flowmeter/totalizer feature allows the user to calculate the approximate lifetime of the Superdri® cartridges without an on-line moisture monitor. For dissolved water removal from transformer oil, the MXP5E is an economical alternative to more costly heat and vacuum systems.

ON-LINE OIL DRYING

Vacuum-type LTCs To use the MXP5E on energized vacuum-type LTCs, it is important to have a means for removing air from the system's filters, piping and hoses before circulating the oil. Velcon recommends adding optional vacuum pump (PN 103Y026) when ordering the MXP5E for this application.

APPLICATIONS

The MXP5E-1 Portable Filter can be used for:

- Network transformer filling
- Drying wet LTC Compartments
- Vacuum-type LTC's
- Drum transferring operations
- Dissolved water removal capability for critical oil quality requirement
