This makes it possible to compensate for aspects such as fluctuations in voltage occurring in the power transmis- sion grid. For this purpose, on-load tap-changers are fitted in transformers and connected to the active part of the transformer. A motor-drive unit which receives a control impulse (e.g. from a voltage reg- ulator) changes the operating position of the on-load tap-changer, as a result of which the transformer's transmission ratio is adapted to the prevailing op- erating requirements. 16 OILTAP® R 4427410/01 EN Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen GmbH 2021 3 Product description Figure 1: System overview of on-load tap-changer, transformer 1 Transformer tank 6 Upper gear unit 2 Motor-drive unit 7 On-load tap-changer 3 Vertical drive shaft 8 Protective relay 4 Bevel gear 9 Oil conservator 5 Horizontal drive shaft 10 Active part of the transformer 3.2.2 Setup/versions The on-load tap-changer consists of the on-load tap-changer head, oil com- partment with built-in diverter switch insert, and the tap selector mounted be- low (also available with change-over selector on request). The design and designation of the most important on-load tap-changer com- ponents are shown in the installation drawings in the appendix.

Figure 2: OILTAP® R on-load tap-changer 1 On-load tap-changer head 3 Tap selector 2 Oil compartment 4 Change-over selector 3.2.2.1 Pipe connections The on-load tap-changer head features 4 pipe connections for different pur- poses. 18 OILTAP® R 4427410/01 EN Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen GmbH 2021 3 Product description Depending on the order, some or all of these pipe connections are fitted with pipe bends ex factory. All pipe bends without terminal box for the tap-change supervisory control can be freely swiveled once the pressure ring is loos- ened. Figure 3: Pipe connections with pipe bends Pipe connection Q The pipe connection Q is closed with a blank cover. Depending on the on- load tap-changer type, either the connection cables of the tap-change super- visory device delivered as an option are routed through the pipe connection, or the oil filter unit is connected to the pipe connection. The functions of the R and Q pipe connections can be interchanged. Pipe connection S The pipe bend on pipe connection S features a vent screw and can be con- nected to a pipe that ends with a drain valve on the side of the transformer tank at operating height. If the on-load tap-changer is fitted with an oil suc- tion pipe, the on-load tap-changer can be completely emptied via pipe con- nection S. Pipe connection R Pipe connection R is intended for attachment of the protective relay and con- nection of the on-load tap-changer oil conservator and can be interchanged with pipe connection Q. Pipe connection E2 Pipe connection E2 is sealed off with a blank cover. It leads into the oil tank of the transformer, directly under the on-load tap-changer head and can be connected to a collective pipe for the Buchholz relay, if necessary. This pipe connection serves a further purpose, namely to equalize the pressure be- Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen GmbH 2021 4427410/01 EN OILTAP® R 19  3 Product description tween the transformer tank and oil compartment of the on-load tap-changer, which is necessary for drying, filling with insulating fluid and transportation of the transformer. 3.2.3 Nameplate and serial number The nameplate with serial number is on the on-load tap-changer head cover. Figure 4: Nameplate 3.2.4 Protective devices The on-load tap-changer is equipped with the following protective devices. 3.2.4.1 Protective relay 3.2.4.1.1 Function description The protective relay is looped into the circuit breaker tripping circuit. It is tripped when the specified speed of flow from the on-load tap-changer head to the oil conservator is exceeded due to a fault. The flowing insulating fluid actuates the flap valve which tips over into position OFF. The contact in the dry-reed magnetic switch is thereby actuated, the circuit breakers are tripped, and the transformer is de-energized. The protective relay is a component of an on-load tap-changer filled with in- sulating fluid and its properties conform to the respective applicable version of IEC publication 60214-1. Diverter switch operations at rated switching capacity or at permissible over- load will not cause the protective relay to trip. The protective relay responds to flow, not to gas accumulated in the protec- tive relay. It is not necessary to bleed the protective relay when filling the transformer with insulating fluid. Gas accumulation in the protective relay is normal. 20 OILTAP® R 4427410/01 EN Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen GmbH 2021 3 Product description 3.2.4.1.2 Design/versions Front view Figure 5: Protective relay RS 2001 1 Inspection window 2 Pressure equalization element Rear view Figure 6: Protective relay RS 2001 1 Dummy plug 2 Nameplate The protective relay RS 2001/R has an extra inspection window on the rear.

Figure 8: Nameplate 3.2.4.2 Pressure monitoring device DW 3.2.4.2.1 Function description The DW 2000 pressure monitoring device protects the on-load tap-changer from impermissible pressure increases, contributing to the safety of the transformer. The pressure monitoring device is installed on the outside of the on-load tap-changer and is tripped by impermissible static and dynamic pressures in the on-load tap-changer oil compartment. The pressure monitoring device uses a concept where a corrugated tube acts as a barometer together with a spring providing counter force. This as- sembly is mechanically linked to the sensor on the snap-action switch. The pressure increase activates the sensor on the snap-action switch, which flips into the OFF position. This triggers the circuit breaker and de-energizes the transformer. The sensor on the snap-action switch has to be reset to the initial position by hand after tripping. Low-energy interference does not cause the pressure monitoring device to trip since the required tripping pressure is not reached. The tripping pressure is set at the factory and prevented from being changed. The pressure monitoring device responds to large pressure increases faster than the protective relay. The protective relay is part of the standard MR pro- tection system and comes as standard. Additional use of a pressure monitoring device also requires installation of the provided protective relay. The features and characteristics of the pressure monitoring device comply with the respective applicable version of IEC publication 60214-1. Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen GmbH 2021 4427410/01 EN OILTAP® R 23  3 Product description Diverter switch operations at the rated switching capacity or permitted over- load do not cause the pressure-operated relay to trip. The pressure-operated relay responds to a pressure change and not to gas accumulation under the pressure-operated relay. Gas accumulation under the pressure-operated relay is normal. 3.2.4.2.2 Design/versions There are two variants of the pressure monitoring device: ▪ DW 2000 for vertical installation ▪ DW 2000 for horizontal installation The housing and the cover cap of the pressure monitoring device consist of lightweight, corrosion-resistant metal.

The rupture disk responds to a defined overpressure in the oil compartment of the on-load tap-changer. 3.2.4.4 Pressure relief device MPreC® On request, MR will supply a pre-fitted MPreC® pressure relief device in place of the rupture disk. This device responds to a defined overpressure in the oil compartment of the on-load tap-changer. The on-load tap-changer therefore meets the requirements of IEC 60214-1 regarding pressure relief devices. 3.2.4.5 Tap-change supervisory device The tap-change supervisory device monitors both the drive shaft between on-load tap-changer(s) and motor-drive unit and the correct switching of the diverter switch.

Sealed packaging surrounds the packaged goods with plastic foil on all sides. Products that have also been dried are identified by a yellow label on the sealed packaging. In the dry state, delivery is also possible in a transport container. 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. ► The outer marking on the packaging states if, for example, the on-load tap-changer or selector has been packed upright. Never stack these crates. ► General rule: Do not stack crates above a height of 1.5 m. ► For other crates: Only stack up to 2 equally sized crates on top of one an- other. The packaging is suitable to ensure undamaged and fully functional means of transportation in compliance with local transportation laws and regula- tions. The packaged goods are packed in a sturdy crate. This crate ensures that, when in the intended transportation position, the packaged goods are stabi- lized to prevent impermissible changes in position, and that none of the parts touch the loading surface of the means of transport or touch the ground after unloading. Sealed packaging surrounds the packaged goods with plastic foil on all sides. The packaged goods are protected from humidity using a desiccant. The plastic foil was bonded after the desiccant is added. 34 OILTAP® R 4427410/01 EN Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen GmbH 2021 4 Packaging, transport and storage 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.

Danger of death or serious injuries due to tipping or falling load. ► Only transport the crate when closed. ► Do not remove the securing material used in the crate during transport. ► If the product is delivered on a pallet, secure it sufficiently. ► Only trained and authorized persons may select the sling gear and se- cure the load. ► Do not walk under the suspended 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, jolts must also be expected during trans- portation. 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 is subject to 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 found upon receipt of the shipment, proceed as follows: ▪ Immediately record the identified transport damage 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 manufacturer 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 on site 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! Damage to packaged goods due to damaged sealed packag- ing. If the product is delivered in sealed packaging, check the sealed packaging immediately. If the sealed packaging is damaged, do not under 36 OILTAP® R 4427410/01 EN Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen GmbH 2021 4 Packaging, transport and storage any circumstances install or commission the packaged goods. Either re- dry the dried packaged goods as per the operating instructions, or contact the manufacturer to agree on how to proceed. ▪ Identify 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 fluid until used if the packaged goods were not sup- plied in insulating fluid. 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 2021 4427410/01 EN OILTAP® R 37  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 a suitable storage space (well ven- tilated, as dust-free as possible, humidity < 50% where possible). 4.4 Unpacking shipments and checking for transportation damages ▪ NOTICE! Damage to packaged goods due to ineffectively sealed packag- ing. Transport the packaged crate to the place where the packaged goods are to be installed. Do not open the sealed packaging until just before in- stallation. ▪ WARNING! Serious injuries and damage to the packaged goods due to the packaged goods tipping out. Place the packaged goods in an up- right crate and protect it from tipping out. ▪ Unpack the packaged goods and check the condition. ▪ Check the completeness of the accessories kit using the delivery slip. 38 OILTAP® R 4427410/01 EN Maschinenfabrik Reinhausen GmbH 2021 5 Mounting 5 Mounting WARNING Risk of crushing!
