H2scan Gridscan™ Gen5 Cost Effective Solution for Instrument Transformers
H2scan’s Gridscan Gen5 hydrogen sensing product has already changed the economics of hydrogen monitoring on distribution transformers. So why not use the Gridscan Gen5 to provide highly accurate hydrogen sensing for instrument transformers? At least one forward-thinking utility has invited the H2scan team to discuss the increased safety of monitoring their oil-filled 230kV instrument transformers.
Gridscan Gen5 is based on an H2scan-developed ASIC that reduces the cost of the product dramatically. Combined with H2scan’s automated sensor calibration that shortens the time needed for initial manufacturing calibration, the Gridscan Gen5 is cost-effective for a much wider range of transformers.
In all oil-filled transformers, rising hydrogen levels mean the oil is breaking down and that could lead to overheating, fires or explosions. The use of the Gridscan Gen5 for these applications gives utilities constant input on hydrogen levels so they can react quickly when hydrogen levels rise.
If you want to discuss whether the Gridscan Gen5 is a fit for your distribution or instrument transformers, click here to contact VP of Transformer Sales Leon White.
Leon White Joins Alan Ross on the EPRA Take 5 on Friday Series
Last month we shared that H2scan’s first podcast guest was Alan Ross, founder and president of the Electric Power Reliability Alliance (EPRA). This month, Alan invited H2scan’s new VP Transformer Sales & Business Development, Leon White, to join his EPRA Take 5 on Friday.
In this video series, Alan interviews electric power reliability professional executives in bite-sized videos on key things happening in the industry. In this quick 11-minute discussion, Leon shared how utility executives can decide whether to purchase a multi-gas monitor or a hydrogen (single-gas) monitor. You can stream the full replay here.
Hydrogen Economy News Bytes
Mitsubishi Hydrogen Project to Decarbonize Montana Power Grid
Mitsubishi Power has proposed to convert treated Berkeley Pit water to hydrogen and use it to decarbonize a large part of Montana's electric-power grid. The plan would involve the construction and operation of both an electrolyzing plant in Butte to extract pure hydrogen from the water, and a power plant next to it that would run at first on a mix of the hydrogen and natural gas, and eventually on 100 percent hydrogen. More details here.
British Gas Co. Wants More Hydrogen
One of Britain’s biggest gas networks has called on the Government to allow it to mix 200 times more hydrogen into gas that is pumped into homes across the country, a move that it says would reduce carbon emissions by six million tons a year. Read the story here.
