Reliable Moisture Control Solutions for Power Systems
Transformers, high-voltage equipment, switchgear systems, and electrical panels used in the energy sector are designed to operate reliably for many years. However, moisture can have adverse effects on insulation systems, metal surfaces, and electrical performance. Pafta Kimya’s Silica Gel, Molecular Sieve, Activated Alumina, and Container Desiccant solutions provide effective moisture control in the energy sector, helping protect equipment and improve operational reliability.
Why Is Moisture Critical in Energy Equipment?
In oil-filled transformers, temperature fluctuations can cause the breather system to draw air into the transformer. Moisture in the air can then penetrate the transformer oil and cellulose insulation materials, reducing dielectric strength and potentially shortening equipment service life. Therefore, moisture control is essential for the reliable operation of energy systems.
Major Risks Caused by Moisture in the Energy Sector
Silica Gel
Helps ensure the intake of dry air in transformer breathers by adsorbing moisture from the surrounding air. Indicator types allow the saturation level to be visually monitored.
Preferred for gas drying and applications requiring very low moisture levels.
Provides high performance in the drying of compressed air and process gases.
Helps reduce the risk of condensation during the international transportation of energy equipment.
The appropriate adsorbent should be selected by taking into account the equipment type, operating environment, temperature fluctuations, and maintenance intervals.
