Study Notes

Power Transformer Automation System

System components include monitoring and safety equipment, intelligent sensors, field devices, superordinate fleet monitoring, and communication accessories.
Solutions cater to all manufacturers' transformers, regardless of age and location, applicable for single transformers or complete fleets.
Subcomponents are organized into three levels: process level, field level, and control level.

ETOS® (Embedded Transformer Operating System)

ETOS® is the first open operating system specifically designed for smart transformers.
Provides a manufacturer-independent system focused on monitoring, controlling, and regulating power transformers.
Functions as a complete solution for digitalizing transformers from the field level to the control level interface.
Modular approach allows customization based on customer needs for various transformer types, performance classes, and applications.

Integration and Cost Efficiency

ETOS® can be seamlessly integrated or retrofitted into existing environments, applicable to both individual transformers and fleets.
Implementation of ETOS® does not affect system costs, ensuring added value without financial impact.

Benefits of Automation

Enhances efficiency and reliability of power transformer operations.
Allows real-time monitoring and control for improved decision-making.
Supports better management of transformer health and performance over time.
