    • Protective relay monitoring flow speed of insulating fluid ensures timely fault detection.

    Drive Shaft Design

    • Two models of drive shafts: one includes a cardan joint; the other is a special model without a joint, specific for particular geometrical constraints.
    • Minimum configurations and permissible axial offsets are defined to ensure stability and functionality during operation.

    Installation and Handling

    • Careful mounting procedures are vital; improper handling can damage components.
    • The selector weighs up to 165 kg, highlighting the importance of safety during installation to prevent equipment and personal injury.

    Drive Shaft Design

    • The drive shaft consists of a square tube, specifically designed without a cardan joint or insulator for standard applications.
    • An intermediate bearing is required if the permissible axial offset exceeds 2° and measures 2472 mm.
    • Components of the drive shaft include a bevel gear, telescopic protective tube, and protective cover.

    Commissioning Process

    • Ensure the specified insulating fluid, as noted in the manufacturer's guidelines, is used to fill the oil compartment to prevent damage.
    • A pressure relief device should be attached if the tap-changer head cover includes a flange.
    • The transformer must remain de-energized during testing to avoid risks.
    • Circuit breaker safety involves deactivating automatic fire extinguishing devices and ensuring that operating conditions follow safety protocols.

    Maintenance Protocol

    • Maintenance intervals are critical; stop-cocks need to be opened to connect the on-load tap-changer to the oil conservator effectively.
    • Contact with service centers is required after specific operation counts, such as 1.2 million or 3.6 million switching operations.
    • A label in the motor-drive unit specifies relevant maintenance intervals, enhancing proactive service schedules to prevent systemic failures.

    Explosion Hazards

    • Risks of explosion are prevalent during operation; hence, ignition sources must be monitored closely.
    • Overloading the on-load tap-changer can result in severe injuries and significant property damage.
    • It is essential to prevent operations that exceed the specified operating conditions.

    Manufacturer Information

    Completeness of Technical File

    • Technical file is incomplete without supporting documents:
      • Unpacking instructions
      • Supplement
      • Routine test report
      • Connection diagrams
      • Dimensional drawings
      • Order confirmation

    Safekeeping

    • Maintain the technical file and supporting documents accessible for future use.

    Notation Conventions

    • Warnings are displayed prominently with the format:
      • WARNING: Type of danger!

    Product Overview

    • Protective relay RS 2001 includes key components:
      • Gasket, terminal box cover, operation test button, test tripping test button, cable gland, connection terminal.
    • RS 2003 and RS 2004 variants have a 1/2"-14NPT adapter instead of cable gland.

    Safety Markings

    • Safety markings include:
      • Protective conductor connection
      • Warning of dangerous electrical voltage
      • Instruction to read documentation

    Pressure Monitoring Device (DW 2000)

    • Protects on-load tap-changer from hazardous pressure increases, enhancing transformer safety.
    • Dimensions for configurations indicate maximum permissible axial offset requirements.

    Maintenance and Safety Precautions

    • Electrical hazards:
      • Always de-energize the transformer before maintenance to prevent electric shock.
      • Lock transformer to prevent accidental restart and ensure grounding of all terminals.
    • Risk of explosion from explosive gases in oil compartments requires avoidance of ignition sources during maintenance.
    • Protect motor-drive unit's housing from condensate damage; utilize desiccants if necessary.

    Inspection Protocol

    • Visual inspections and monitoring of insulating fluid quality for on-load tap-changer and motor-drive unit should be conducted.
    • Inspections can be integrated with routine transformer checks for efficiency.

    Re-commissioning Process

    • Confirm resolution of issues causing pressure monitoring device tripping before re-commissioning the transformer.
    • Ensure operational positioning of the sensor prior to commissioning.
