3.1 NAMEPLATES (fig. 2)
The nameplate with electrical data is placed near the secondary terminal box; it reports transformer handling
pressure too.
There are P1 (H1) and P2 (H2) plates, on the transformer’s head:
• P1 (H1) indicates the conventional current input of primary terminal
• P2 (H2) indicates the opposite primary terminal.
Two nameplates show, respectively, the ground tap described at par. 3. 5 and this one inside the
secondary terminal box. A diagram plate is attached inside the cover of the secondary terminal box.
The primary ratio change diagram plate is applied inside the protective cover of the ratio change.

3.2 SF6 GAS PRESSURE MEASUREMENT INSTRUMENT
The transformer has a density gauge with accuracy class 1, which is supplied with electric contacts for
remote control. Those contacts permit to check some variations of the gas density from a distance.
The density gauge is positioned so that it is protected against casual collisions.
The distinctive values of the pressure at 20°C are indicated on the electrical data plate.
The auxiliary contact box is joint to the density gauge, so that they form a single instrument; this box has
only one gland (for user’s disposal). See next figure:
INSTRUMENT TYPE
FIG. 3
In accordance with customer’s request, it is supplied an auxiliary contact box (with electric contacts)
separately from density gauge; protection level of this box is IP 54 (fig. 4).
There are two glands, one to connect the cable to the pressure measurement instrument (this cable is
included in the scope of IT supply), the other, type PG, according to user’s request for user’s disposal.
There’s a plate, inside the box, which indicates the terminals for the alarm signals for the minimum pressure.

3.4 GAS INLET VALVE
The gas inlet stainless steel valve is on the transformer base: it allows the filling with SF6 gas and the
connection of a gas checking instrument. The valve is positioned so that it is shock-proof.
During the service, this valve always must be closed with its covering cap, to guarantee a molecular seal.
(see pos. 3 – fig. 1).
There’s an earth clamp for 10÷15 mm diameter cables on one of the anterior feet.
This clamp is used to ground the secondary terminal box too.
M12 FIG. 5
The epoxy resin secondary terminal is located in an aluminium alloy box of the transformer base.
Remove the aluminium protective cover to gain access to clamps.
The cables exit from pipe unions which are supplied upon request. Pipe unions are attached to an aluminium
plate that faces downward.
FIG. 6
A predetermined breaking system is located on the top of the transformer's head. This device needn’t
maintenance and is protected against any abnormal increase in internal pressure.

GAS
The TAGma-mb 245 allows both the primary ratio change and the one secondary.
For primary ratio change, the transformer is sent in parallel connection, that can support the maximum
allowable current. See chapter 9.1.
For secondary ratio change, the connections must be made following the diagram plate attached inside the
cover of the secondary terminal box.

4. SHIPPING
Each transformer is shipped in vertical position, with internal pressure of SF6 gas not exceeding 0.03 MPa
at 20°C. Observe symbols marked on the package during transport.
Page 8
0388298100 – a
6. MOVING
Move the crated apparatus as far as place of facility, slinging it as shown in fig. 8 and observing the
indications marked on the package.
If it necessary to move the unpacked transformer, use the proper holes on the base. To not overturn the
transformer slung, secure four lifting cables with a rope rolled up the lower portion of the head.
In any case, the SF6 internal pressure mustn’t exceed 0.03 MPa at 20°C.
FIG. 8
7. STORAGE
In case of storage of the transformers before setting them to work, keep them in vertical position.
If the transformers are crated, observe the symbols marked on the package; in case of storage of the
transformers unpacked, anchor them to ground appropriately.
In case the transformers must be stored for long time, check once every two years gas presence: in this case
there isn’t a maximum time limit for the storage.
The outdoor storage is permitted and the temperature limits are the same as specified service conditions in
the contract.
8. UNPACKING
Open package only near the place of erection. Remove a case side wall first, being careful not to damage the
content.
9. INSTALLING
The fixing to the transformer’s base is achieved using four slots 20x38 mm (for M16 screws), which allow
clamping from 360x360 to 375x375 mm.
The base is 12 mm thick in the points of fixing. Verify the sizes on the drawing of the transformer’s
overall dimensions.

9.1 PRIMARY RATIO CHANGE (fig. 9)
The TAGma-mb 245 transformer allows the primary ratio change with various connections, depending on
the number of ratios prescribed and on the value of the current:
The transformers are always shipped in the connection that can support the maximum allowable current.
If it necessary the ratio change, act as follows:
− unscrew the nuts of pos. 2, remove the cover showed in pos. 1, without damaging the washer of pos. 3
− make the connections as primary ratio change diagram plate shows.
It is convenient to clean the plates with an abrasive sponge when executing a ratio change. Grease the plates
immediately afterwards with Electat Grease 453 or vaseline.

The SF6 gas filling takes place only when the transformer is completely attached to its support.
IMPORTANT:
before filling, don’t create a vacuum into transformer, because gas internal pressure must be superior
to atmospheric pressure (the transformer must be pressurised).
After mounting the proper filling tools, wash the gas inlet hose, letting the gas flow for a few seconds at
pressure of 0.05 MPa.
Insert the hose into the apposite valve.
Always check data plate of the transformer and the rated operating pressure, that is clearly indicate with this
lowest.
Pressure up to the value indicated plus about 0.02 MPa, and, after a few hours, verify that the pressure has
stabilized at the requested value; if it hasn’t, put in more gas.
Check tightness of gas inlet valve, with a leak detector.

− if it necessary to change the primary circuits configuration, follow the directions written in the par. 9.1
and what is marked on the primary ratio change diagram plate applied inside the protective cover. All
primary contacts are greased. It is convenient to clean the plates with an abrasive sponge and grease them
immediately afterwards with Electat Grease 453 or vaseline, when executing a ratio change.
Make the same treatment to the secondary clamps
− if it expected a monitoring at distance, make the indispensable connections inside the auxiliary contact box.
10. MAINTENANCE
10.1 PRESSURE CHECK AND ADDING OF GAS
TAGMA-MB 245 needs only ordinary external cleaning, depending on environmental conditions and
in accordance with the established cleaning cycle for other near equipment (circuit breaker,
disconnectors, etc.). In general, external inspection is enough to ascertain the condition of device.
While operating, a deposit (dust, soot, salt, etc.) is formed on the surface of tongues of the insulators
and it can reduce their surface tightness. To clean these tongues special tools are not necessary, but
you can wash them like other similar instruments. Washing system that spray water upwards are good,
so that the insulators are cleaned while working.
The visual inspection shall also concern a visual checking of all metal parts (corrosion) and any other
mechanical damages (cleaning, greasing and / or painting if necessary).
Every 6 months visually inspect component.
Gas humidity check is made by connecting the apposite instrument to gas inlet valve.
The humidity level must be less than 500 ppmv; if the humidity level is greater than this value, notify
MAGRINI GALILEO.
We recommend to check humidity every five years.

11. MOVING TAG AFTER ERECTION
If it is necessary to move a TAGma-mb 245 already in working condition (with rated internal
pressure), the instructions written on electrical data plate (installed on transformer base) must be
rigorously followed: maximum pressure for moving is 0.03 MPa at 20°C.
Fall the internal pressure, using the inlet valve, so much that the indicate value is reached; the internal
pressure value reached must be higher than the atmospheric pressure.
The recovered gas can be used again, if it suits IEC 376 standard.
If it necessary purify and dry the recovered gas by available treatment system.
