The tap-change operation is activated by starting the motor-drive unit (a sin- gle control impulse triggered, for example, by a voltage regulator of the TAPCON®-series). This operation is always completed regardless of any other control pulses emitted during the tap-change operation. In the standard design, the next tap-change operation can only proceed once all control de- vices have reached their rest positions. Behavior in the event of a voltage interruption Should the voltage be interrupted during an on-load tap-change operation, once the voltage supply returns, the motor-drive unit completes the started on-load tap-change operation. 3.1.2 Performance features The motor-drive unit is particularly characterized by the following properties: ▪ Hand crank with interlocking switch ▪ Protection against accidental contact when doors are open ▪ Tap position indicator which is clear and easy to read ▪ TAPCON® 250 voltage regulator can be integrated ▪ Rapid replacement of the position transmitter modules since the functions of the position transmitter board and position transmitter module are sepa- rate ▪ Panel heater as anti-condensation heater ▪ Monitoring system to monitor vacuum interrupters in the on-load tap- changer 3.1.3 Scope of delivery The motor-drive unit is packaged with protection against moisture and is de- livered as follows: ▪ Motor-drive unit with hand crank and hand lamp ▪ Product documentation Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen GmbH 2019 3913897/02 EN TAPMOTION® MD-III 15  3 Product description Please note the following: 1. Check the shipment for completeness on the basis of the shipping docu- ments. 2. Store the parts in a dry place until installation. 3. The product must remain in its airtight, protective wrapping and may only be removed immediately before installation. 3.1.4 Design This chapter contains an overview of the design of the MD-III motor-drive unit. The actual motor-drive unit equipment and the arrangement of the individual elements may differ from those shown.

Pointer and operations counter are mechanically driven and indicate the tap-change operation se- quence of the motor-drive unit. The reset wheel on the operations counter is lead-sealed at the factory. Figure 2: Indication field 1 Tap position indicator 3 The tap-change indicator: Shows the current position of the control cam 2 The two drag hands indicate the 4 The mechanical operations regulating range currently used counter shows the overall number of tap-change operations 3.1.4.2 Hand crank lock (optional) An optional mechanical hand crank lock can be used to block the hand crank in cases where the monitoring system reports a fault or is not ready for oper- ation. 3.1.4.3 Anti-condensation heater The anti-condensation heater is designed as a panel heater which also acts as the front cover of the swing frame. Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen GmbH 2019 3913897/02 EN TAPMOTION® MD-III 17  3 Product description The design of the motor-drive unit and panel heater ensures that air circu- lates inside the motor-drive unit and therefore that there is a constant interior temperature which is always higher than the outside temperature. 3.1.4.4 Swing frame/terminal rail The swing frame protects all electrical and mechanical parts of the motor- drive unit behind the swing frame against accidental contact. The terminal rail behind the swing frame facilitates an easy electrical con- nection of the motor-drive unit. The wiring is easily connected using vertically arranged cap rails with the corresponding installed terminal bars. 3.1.4.5 Position transmitter equipment The position transmitter equipment is used to remotely indicate the operating position of the on-load tap-changer when idle. The remote display is available in various versions. The position transmitter module for connection by the customer is located on the terminal rail. For more information about the position transmitter equipment, see Installing electrics for motor-drive unit [►Section 5.4, Page 39] section. 3.1.4.6 Transmission gear cover plate The touch-protected transmission gear cover plate features an opening for the hand crank used in manual mode. For operation, observe the information provided in the Actuating motor-drive unit with hand crank [►Section 11, Page 53] chapter. 3.2 Monitoring system (VIM) The monitoring system is also known as the VIM module (Vacuum Inter- rupter Monitoring). 18 TAPMOTION® MD-III 3913897/02 EN Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen GmbH 2019 3 Product description 3.2.1 Function description of monitoring system WARNING Danger of death, severe injury and damage to property! Danger of death, severe injury and damage to property due to incorrect op- eration of hand crank and monitoring system! ► Never actuate on-load tap-changer with the hand crank if the transformer is energized. When the hand crank is operated, the monitoring system no longer provides protection so failure of a vacuum interrupter may result in injuries to operating staff and/or damage to the transformer. ► Check the on-load tap-changer when the monitoring system trips during operation. ► Before resetting the monitoring system, always first establish the cause and remedy the fault. ► The monitoring system improves operating reliability, but cannot cover all operating statuses. There is a high probability that the monitoring system will detect a vacuum interrupter malfunction in the following operating modes: ▪ Electric on-load tap-change operation resulting from manual actuation of the RAISE/LOWER pivot switch ▪ Electric on-load tap-change operation resulting from automatic activation by a voltage regulator If the hand crank is operated, the monitoring system does not provide pro- tection. An optional mechanical hand crank lock can be used to block the hand crank in cases where the monitoring system reports a fault or is not ready for oper- ation. In the event of an error, the monitoring system triggers the following actions: ▪ The on-load tap-changer is stopped and returned to its starting position ▪ The motor protective switch 8-2 is tripped ▪ Further electrical on-load tap-change operations are blocked ▪ In designs with an appropriate hand crank lock: Hand crank operations are also blocked ▪ The error indication on the monitoring circuit board lights up – Yellow LED for errors in the signal transmission – Red LED for errors in a vacuum interrupter ▪ Error messages are indicated by illumination of the red Alarm signal lamp (86RL) on the swing frame of the motor-drive unit. Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen GmbH 2019 3913897/02 EN TAPMOTION® MD-III 19  3 Product description 3.2.2 Monitoring system design Figure 3: Monitoring system (VIM), schematic diagram The monitoring system evaluates the current signals in the on-load tap- changer. For fail-safe transmission, the current signals are converted into optical signals and transferred via fiber-optic cables. The monitoring system carries out the following checks: 1. After the by-pass switch has opened and before the vacuum interrupter opens, there must be a current signal. 2. Once the vacuum interrupter opens, there must be no current signal present. If one is present, the monitoring system generates an alarm signal. The monitoring system is also fitted with self-monitoring, which checks the internal circuits. At the input, the electronics are protected by a Zener diode and an interchangeable fuse. 20 TAPMOTION® MD-III 3913897/02 EN Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen GmbH 2019 3 Product description 3.2.3 Monitoring system displays and controls Figure 4: Monitoring system (VIM) displays and controls 1 Green TEST push-button 3 1 yellow and 1 red LED per phase for signaling errors 2 Green Power LED 4 Red RESET push-button The following displays and controls of the monitoring system (Vacuum Inter- rupter Monitoring VIM) are located behind the motor-drive unit's door: ▪ The green TEST push-button is used to check the internal circuitry of the monitoring system. ▪ 1 green LED indicates the control voltage supply present ▪ 3 red LEDs (1 per phase) indicate when a vacuum interrupter malfunction has been recorded – The monitoring system performs this check during every diverter switch operation ▪ 3 yellow LEDs (1 per phase) indicate the loss of the current-transformer signal – The monitoring system repeats this check after every 2 tap-change op- erations for network applications and after every 32 tap-change opera- tions for industrial applications. ▪ The red RESET push-button is used to activate the monitoring system af- ter an inspection. 3.2.4 Maintenance mode When performing test tap-change operations with a de-energized trans- former, it may be useful to put the monitoring system into maintenance mode. The integrity test for the fiber-optic cable is suspended in this case. To switch to maintenance mode, proceed as follows: 1. DANGER! Maintenance mode must not be activated if the transformer is energized. Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen GmbH 2019 3913897/02 EN TAPMOTION® MD-III 21  3 Product description 2. Press and hold the RESET push-button for around 6 seconds to disable the verification system for 10 hours. ð The 3 yellow LEDs on the monitoring circuit board flash slowly ð At the end of the 10 hours, the yellow LED go out and the unit returns to its normal function 3. You can press the TEST push-button at any time to exit maintenance mode, instead of waiting for the time to expire. 3.2.5 Test function An error can be simulated by pressing the green TEST push-button, e.g. to check that the on-load tap-changer returns to its starting position during an on-load tap-change operation. The alarm status can be reset by pressing the red RESET push-button. You will find a description of this function in the In- service monitoring system verification section. 3.2.6 Overview of monitoring system operating statuses In the motor-drive unit, LEDs on the monitoring circuit board and on the swing frame indicate various operating states or events: Monitoring display Swing frame display Operating status Green LED Yellow LED Red LED 86GL 86RL Power Fault Alarm VIM ok VIM Alarm Normal operation ON OFF OFF ON OFF Control voltage supply fault OFF OFF OFF OFF ON Loss of current transformer signal ON ON OFF ON ON Vacuum interrupter error ON OFF ON ON ON Maintenance mode ON FLASHING OFF ON OFF Test mode ON OFF ON ON ON 22 TAPMOTION® MD-III 3913897/02 EN Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen GmbH 2019 4 Packaging, transport and storage 4 Packaging, transport and storage 4.1 Packaging The products are sometimes supplied with a sealed packaging and some- times also dried depending on what is required. A sealed packaging surrounds the packaged goods on all sides with plastic foil. Products that have also been dried are identified by a yellow label on the sealed packaging. The information in the following sections should be applied as appropriate. 4.1.1 Suitability NOTICE Property damage due to incorrectly stacked crates! Stacking the crates incorrectly can lead to damage to the packaged goods! ► Only stack up to 2 equally sized crates on top of one another. The packaging is suitable for undamaged and fully functional means of transportation in compliance with local transportation laws and regulations. The packaged goods are packed in a stable crate. This crate ensures that the packaged goods are secure when in the intended transportation position and that none of the parts touch the loading surface of the means of trans- port or touch the ground after unloading. The packaged goods are stabilized inside the crate to prevent impermissible changes in position. A sealed packaging surrounds the packaged goods on all sides with plastic foil. The packaged goods are protected from humidity using a desiccant. The plastic foil is bonded after the drying agent is added. 4.1.2 Markings The packaging bears a signature with instructions for safe transport and cor- rect storage. The following symbols apply to the shipment of non-hazardous goods. Adherence to these symbols is mandatory. Protect against Top Fragile Attach lifting Center of mass moisture gear here Table 6: Shipping pictograms Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen GmbH 2019 3913897/02 EN TAPMOTION® MD-III 23  4 Packaging, transport and storage 4.2 Transportation, receipt and handling of shipments WARNING Danger of death and damage to property! Danger of death and damage to property due to tipping or falling load! ► Transport crate only when closed. ► Do not remove the mounting material used in the crate during transport. ► Only trained and appointed persons may select the sling gear and secure the load. ► Do not walk under the hanging load. ► Use means of transport and lifting gear with a sufficient carrying capacity in accordance with the weight stated on the delivery slip. In addition to oscillation stress and shock stress, jolts must also be expected during transportation. In order to prevent possible damage, avoid dropping, tipping, knocking over and colliding with the product. If a crate tips over, falls from a certain height (e.g. when slings tear) or expe- riences an unbroken fall, damage must be expected regardless of the weight. Every delivered shipment must be checked for the following by the recipient before acceptance (acknowledgment of receipt): ▪ Completeness based on the delivery slip ▪ External damage of any type. The checks must take place after unloading when the crate or transport con- tainer can be accessed from all sides. Visible damage If external transport damage is detected on receipt of the shipment, proceed as follows: ▪ Immediately record the transport damage found in the shipping docu- ments and have this countersigned by the carrier. ▪ In the event of severe damage, total loss or high damage costs, immedi- ately notify the sales department at Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen and the relevant insurance company. ▪ After identifying damage, do not modify the condition of the shipment fur- ther and retain the packaging material until an inspection decision has been made by the transport company or the insurance company. ▪ Record the details of the damage immediately onsite together with the carrier involved. This is essential for any claim for damages! ▪ Photograph damage to packaging and packaged goods. This also applies to signs of corrosion on the packaged goods due to moisture inside the packaging (rain, snow, condensation). ▪ NOTICE! Be absolutely sure to also check the sealed packaging. If the sealed packaging is damaged, do not under any circumstances install or commission the packaged goods. Either dry the dried packaged goods again as per the operating instructions for the relevant on-load tap- 24 TAPMOTION® MD-III 3913897/02 EN Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen GmbH 2019 4 Packaging, transport and storage changer/de-energized tap-changer or contact Maschinenfabrik Rein- hausen GmbH to agree on how to proceed with drying. If this is not done, the packaged goods may be damaged. ▪ Name the damaged parts. Hidden damage When damages are not determined until unpacking after receipt of the ship- ment (hidden damage), proceed as follows: ▪ Make the party responsible for the damage liable as soon as possible by telephone and in writing, and prepare a damage report. ▪ Observe the time periods applicable to such actions in the respective country. Inquire about these in good time. With hidden damage, it is very hard to make the transportation company (or other responsible party) liable. Any insurance claims for such damages can only be successful if relevant provisions are expressly included in the insur- ance terms and conditions. 4.3 Storage of shipments Packaged goods dried by Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen Upon receipt of the shipment, immediately remove the packaged goods dried by Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen from the sealed packaging and store air-tight in dry insulating oil until used. Non-dried packaged goods Non-dried packaged goods but with a functional sealed packaging can be stored outdoors when the following conditions are complied with. When selecting and setting up the storage location, ensure the following: ▪ Protect stored goods against moisture (flooding, water from melting snow and ice), dirt, pests such as rats, mice, termites and so on, and against unauthorized access. ▪ Store the crates on timber beams and planks as a protection against ris- ing damp and for better ventilation. ▪ Ensure sufficient carrying capacity of the ground. ▪ Keep entrance paths free. ▪ Check stored goods at regular intervals. Also take appropriate action after storms, heavy rain or snow and so on. Protect the packaging foil from direct sunlight so that it does not disintegrate under the influence of UV rays, which would cause the packaging to lose its sealing function. Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen GmbH 2019 3913897/02 EN TAPMOTION® MD-III 25  4 Packaging, transport and storage If the product is installed more than 6 months after delivery, suitable mea- sures must be taken without delay. The following measures can be used: ▪ Correctly regenerate the drying agent and restore the sealed packaging. ▪ Unpack the packed goods and store in suitable storage space (well venti- lated, as dust-free as possible, humidity < 50 % where possible). 4.4 Unpacking shipments and checking for transportation damages ▪ NOTICE! Transport the packaged crate to the place where installation will take place. Do not open the sealed packaging until just before installation.

Standard assembly means that the motor-drive unit is fitted directly be- neath and secured to the on-load tap-changer. 2. Offset assembly (assembly on the floor) means that there is a gap be- tween the motor-drive unit and the on-load tap-changer beneath which it is fitted and that the motor-drive unit is secured to the transformer on the main tank. This variant requires a mounting support on the main trans- former tank, which is provided by the transformer manufacturer. 5.2 Fitting motor-drive unit to on-load tap-changer With the standard assembly, the motor-drive unit is fitted directly beneath and secured to the on-load tap-changer. Figure 8: Standard assembly 30 TAPMOTION® MD-III 3913897/02 EN Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen GmbH 2019 5 Fitting motor-drive unit To do so, proceed as follows: 1.

An energized transformer and energized on-load tap-changer components could cause death or serious injuries when installing the electrics! ► Adherence to the following safety precautions is mandatory. The drive may only be connected to circuits with an external overcurrent pro- tection device and isolating device with all poles disconnected so the equip- ment can be fully de-energized if required (service, maintenance etc.). Suitable equipment includes isolating devices in accordance with IEC 60947-1 and IEC60947-3 (e.g. circuit breaker). When stating the circuit breaker type, note the properties of the relevant circuits (voltage, maximum currents). The following should also be noted during installation: ▪ It must be easy for the operator to access the isolating device ▪ The isolating device must be labeled for the motor-drive unit and circuits to be isolated ▪ The isolating device must not be part of the power line ▪ The isolating device must not interrupt the main grounding conductor Unless otherwise specified, the connections for the supply current circuits must have a conductor cross-section of at least 1.5 mm2 (16 AWG). NOTICE Damage to the on-load tap-changer and motor-drive unit! Damage to on-load tap-changer and motor-drive unit due to incorrect use of position transmitter equipment! ► Only circuits stated in the chapter Technical data for position transmitter equipment [►Section 15.2, Page 61] may be connected to the position transmitter module connections. ► The switchover point of the position transmitter equipment in the motor- drive unit is not the same as the switchover point of the diverter switch. This depends on the type of diverter switch. This fact should be noted when project planning the locking circuits between the motor-drive unit and external equipment (e.g. transformer circuit breaker). ► For external monitoring, locking and control purposes, it is not therefore the position transmitter equipment but the "Tap changer in operation" po- sition transit contact shown in the connection diagram that should be used. To electrically connect the motor-drive unit proceed as follows: 1. Switch off voltage supply. 2. Lock voltage supply to prevent unintentional restart. 3. Make sure everything is de-energized. 4. Visibly ground and short circuit motor-drive unit. 5. Cover or cordon off adjacent energized parts.
