SPI® : ANTI-HYDROCARBONS FILTRATION SYSTEMS

RAINWATER DRAINAGE WITHOUT HYDROCARBONS SPI® Hydrocarbon Filters for Electrical Transformers Many pieces of industrial equipment, such as electrical transformers, use oils or hydrocarbons for internal cooling or insulation. These dielectric oils can contaminate soil and water if spilled. When the oil-filled transformer is placed outdoors and exposed to weather conditions, rainwater can fill this secondary containment. To prevent overflow in the event of simultaneous rain and oil leakage, the containment basin must be equipped with a system capable of continuously filtering and evacuating...

3- BLOCKAGE FUNCTION: « Tackifying » solidification The filter becomes saturated with oils and hydrocarbons. Following a massive influx of hydrocarbons into the filter, or an amount equal to the filter's saturation capacity, the active material autonomously clogs and forms a tight seal: oil and water can no longer pass through and remain blocked upstream of the retention. Human Intervention Required: A leak causing the blockage must be identified and addressed, the pit cleaned, and the filter replaced. This hermetic seal can withstand up to 1 bar of pressure (approximately 10 meters in a...
