Leaking assets - Import export

Leaking assets present challenges for utilities trying to keep their plant operational. Our unique leak management system is a live continuous SF6 topping up device, which provides automated, on-demand top-up capabilities in the event of a leak. The Smartfill CTU is designed to manage leak operations where regular, controlled top-ups are required. Using this zero-waste approach to replenish the gas results in reduced SF6 usage, inventory and costs. Designed to be left in the field for extended periods of time this smart solution provides safe and secure operation via remote access, SMS technology and traffic light warning system. All data is stored within the unit and operators are only required to attend site if alerted of any issues. Where GIS performance may be affected by depleted SF6, Smartfill technology secures continuity for Transmission Network Operators, offering the most effective solution for leaking assets.

Used widely in electricity substation maintenance, Smartfill provides a simple, efficient, zero emission alternative to manual filling and top-up of SF6 compartments. Filling of newly installed SF6 assets and refilling of in-service assets can be achieved automatically during live energised operations. Topping up leaking or damaged SF6 assets can also be completed without an engineer. Designed to accurately measure, control and monitor SF6 gas passing through the network, this smart solution delivers compliant measurement of SF6 inventory and usage with complete traceability.
