BS EN 60567:2011 pdf download – Oil-filled electrical equipment — Sampling of gases and analysis of free and dissolved gases — Guidance This International Standard deals with the techniques for sampling free gases from gas-collecting relays from power transformers. Three methods of sampling free gases aredescribed. The techniques for sampling oil from oil-filled equipment such as power and instrumenttransformers,reactors,bushings,oil-filled cables and oil-filled tank-type capacitors are nolonger covered by this standard, but are instead described in 4.2 of lEC 60475:2011. Before analysing the gases dissolved in oil, they are first extracted from the oil.Three basicmethods are described,one using extraction by vacuum (Toepler and partial degassing),another by displacement of the dissolved gases by bubbling the carrier gas through the oilsample (stripping) and the last one by partition of gases between the oil sample and a smallvolume of the carrier gas (headspace).The gases are analysed quantitatively after extractionby gas chromatography; a method of analysis is described. Free gases from gas-collectingrelays are analysed without preliminary treatment. The preferred method for assuring the performance of the gas extraction and analysisequipment, considered together as a single system, is to degas samples of oil prepared in thelaboratory and containing known concentrations of gases (“gas-in-oil standards”) andquantitatively analyse the gases extracted.Two methods of preparing gas-in-oil standards aredescribed. For daily calibration checks of the chromatograph,it is convenient to use a standard gasmixture containing a suitable known amount of each of the gas components to be in a similarratio to the common ratios of the gases extracted from transformer oils. The techniques described take account,on the one hand,of the problems peculiar toanalyses associated with acceptance testing in the factory,where gas contents of oil aregenerally very low and, on the other hand, of the problems imposed by monitoring equipmentin the field,where transport of samples may be by un-pressurized air freight and whereconsiderable differences in ambient temperature may exist between the plant and theexamining laboratory. 2Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document andare indispensable for its application.For dated references, only the edition cited applies.
