Iron tank is normally used for transformer oil storage or transportation during substation maintenance. However, there are many disadvantages of iron tank: 1. It’s bulky and heavy that increase the labor cost and brings inconvenience to transportation, especial in complex terrain. 2. It’s easily corrosive and requires regular maintenance that also increases the cost. 3. Bad sealing may pollute the oil, which poses risks to transformer operation.
SHIRE research team looks for a foldable and portable oil storage equipment to solve this problem.Oil storage bag is successfully developed through research in material and innovation of thermal bonding technology. It’s small, light and foldable with high strength, good sealing effect and excellent oil resistance, which enhance the maintenance quality and efficiency for power grid transformers and other equipment.
