Reliable Power Supply - Used Energy Equipment from Renowned Manufacturers

We specialize in the supply of used electrical equipment: power generators 10-3000 kVA, power transformers 100-40000 kVA, medium/low voltage switchgear, UPS systems, cogeneration units. We collaborate with brands such as Caterpillar, Cummins, ABB, Siemens, Schneider Electric. Each device undergoes a 195-point inspection including insulation tests, winding resistance measurements, load tests, transformer oil analysis, and thermal imaging of connections. Savings when purchasing used equipment amount to 40-60% while maintaining efficiency >95% and a lifespan of 15-25 years.

Thermometers: consistent readings, alarm contacts functional. Basic electrical measurements: Insulation resistance (megger 5kV DC): GN>1000 MΩ, DN>800 MΩ, GD>1500 MΩ @ 20°C. Absorption coefficient R60/R15: >1.3 (good condition). Polarization coefficient R600/R60: >1.5-2.0. Winding resistance: GN side: RAB, RBC, RCA difference <2%. DN side: Rab, Rbc, Rca difference <2%. Comparison with factory data: deviation <5%. Temperature corrected to 75°C for comparison. Transformation ratio and connection group: Measurement of transformation ratio: each tap switch position. Tolerance: ±0.5% from nameplate value. Connection group: verification of Dyn11 or other using a phase meter. Phase shift: compliant with group ±1°. Dielectric strength test: Test voltage GN: 38 kV AC/60s (for 15kV). Test voltage DN: 3 kV AC/60s (for 0.4kV). Between phases and to ground: no breakdowns or jumps. Leakage current: <50 μA, stable during the test. Transformer oil analysis (DGA): Hydrogen H2: <150 ppm (thermal/electrical breakdown). Methane CH4: <120 ppm (local overheating). Ethane C2H6: <65 ppm (oil overheating). Ethylene C2H4: <50 ppm (overheating >500°C). Acetylene C2H2: <5 ppm (arc discharges!). CO: <500 ppm, CO2: <5000 ppm (cellulose degradation). Physicochemical parameters of oil: Breakdown voltage: >60 kV/2.5mm (IEC 60156). Water content: <20 ppm for transformer in operation. Loss factor tgδ: <0.5% @ 90°C. Acidity: <0.1 mgKOH/g (fresh <0.03). Interphase voltage: >40 mN/m (new >45). Partial discharge (PD) measurement: PD level: <10 pC at 1.1×Un (good condition). PRPD pattern: no concentration in specific phases. Location: acoustic/electrical source of PD. Trend: stable during a 30-minute test. Additional measurements: Short-circuit impedance: 4-6% typical for 1600 kVA. No-load current: <2% of rated current. Losses: no-load <2.5 kW, load <17 kW @ 75°C.
