Leaking - Import export

The leakage of insulating gases from GIS, switchgear and other compartments is a global issue. Insulating gas leaks present a major problem to utility companies: •Reducing plant efficiency, causing damage to assets or outages •Costing money through fines or legislative punishments •Exposure of employees to toxic gases Utilising Infrared detection technology the EMT Leak Hunter enables fast leak detection on gas insulated compartments containing SF6 or Eco based insulating gases; one instrument … two jobs. •Reduce the rate of gas loss •Find leaks fast for early intervention •Ensure user safety from leaking potentially harmful gases •Comply to existing and new regulations •Reduce costs associated with gas usage and topping up •Reduce costs associated with regulatory body fines •Reduce CO2 footprint

Providing a reliable resource and expertise to clients in the utilities sector, EMT Site Services use a range of technologies and solutions to deliver key environmental and financial benefits including: asset reliability, long term compliance and performance, maximum up-time and security of critical infrastructure. Service provision includes: Flange Repairs; SF6 Leak Surveys; Corrosion Prevention; Rental/Lease SF6 Instruments; SF6 Filling and Topping Up; Gas Recycling; Protective Coatings, Training.

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.

Utilities personnel working on Gas Insulated Switchgear are in danger from exposure to SF6 gas leaks. Colourless and odourless, SF6 can accumulate undetected, presenting serious health and environmental risk. The EMT GasSafe Gas Leak Detection System offers a feature packed solution to monitoring real time gas leaks from electrical equipment or potential other unsafe gaseous emissions. Our gas safety system provides rapid detection, immediate response and early warning in the event of gas leaks or an unsafe working environment, ensuring personnel safety and asset protection. Ideal for traditional SF6 and new SF6 alternative gas installations. Provides an intelligent and comprehensive solution to your SF6 F-Gas leak detection requirements. Measurement of over 400 different gases and vapours from ppm to %Vol. Easily add or remove sensors and accessories as your system needs grow with up to 128 detectors on a single control panel.
