Hydran M2-X
Enhanced Monitoring with Extended Sensor Life
The Hydran M2-X is the next generation of the field-proven family of Hydran DGA monitoring solutions, providing continuous monitoring of gas and moisture levels to alert users of developing faults and minimize the risk of unplanned outages. The M2-X builds on GE Vernova’s strong domain expertise to deliver an optimized, low maintenance monitoring device with extended sensor life.
The Hydran sensors are available as a traditional Hydran composite gas (H2, CO, C2H2, C2H4) sensor or a discrete Hydrogen only (H2) sensor. In addition, it tracks moisture in oil (reading in %RH and ppm) and is compatible with various transformer oil types (standard mineral insulating oils and newer natural and synthetic ester based fluids).
Key Benefits
- Small form factor, no moving parts, and low maintenance
- Support for Asset Performance Management (APM) software analytics, enabling fleet level deployments
- Condition monitoring for transformers with mineral insulating oils or ester based fluids (natural and synthetic)
- Extending beyond DGA monitoring, through the connection of sensors, the Hydran M2-X can monitor other parameters such as top oil temperature, load current and through the use of IEEE based mathematical models, can provide further insight on changing transformer conditions
- Provides critical data for APM strategies, facilitating planning of site intervention and maintenance activities
Features
- Easily upgradable in the field to accept analog signals and monitor other key transformer parameters
- Computation of winding hot spot and other IEEE transformer models for enhanced diagnostics of the transformer’s condition (depending on sensors installed)
- Easy to install on a single existing transformer valve, often without an outage required
- Integrated display and keypad for simplified local user interaction and data visualization
- Built-in moisture sensor provides water in oil measurement, critical to identify paper degradation and leaking gaskets
- Compatible with GE Vernova’s acclaimed Perception™ software to download, trend and analyse transformer health data
Applications
- Medium to large sized transformers
- Utility and industrial transformers
- Transmission transformers
