A cost effective and reliable solution to ensuring compliance to Control of Pollution (Oil Storage)(England Regulations 2001,(OSR England).

The salient points are:-

• The regulations apply to containers greater than 200 litres.
• Oil must be stored in a container which is of sufficient strength and structural integrity to ensure that it is unlikely to burst or leak in its ordinary use.
• The container must be situated within a secondary containment system.
• Where a drum is used for the storage of oil in conjunction with a drip tray as the secondary containment system, it is sufficient if the tray has a capacity of not less than 25% of the drum’s storage capacity; or if there is more than one drum used at the same time with the tray, the aggregate storage capacity of the drums.
• The Environment Agency document also recommends labelling and consideration of rainwater on steel drums.

Four drum cover to encase drums and bund.

Used with the Eden four drum sump pallet, these covers ensure the drums are kept dry and rain water is prevented from entering the sump thereby affecting the sump's effectiveness.

Corrosive Sulphur Analysis with SEM / EDS

Caused by Dibenzyl Disulfide (DBDS) corrosive sulphur has received significant attention in the HV transformer industry over the last decade.

The underlying reason for concerns started in 2000 when several large and relatively new transformers unexpectedly failed.

Subsequent investigations found fine deposits and corrosion on some of the windings and fine deposits embedded in some of the paper insulation. These deposits were identified as copper sulphide, which is an electrically conductive compound. Its presence in the paper insulation formed a conductive path, lowering the dielectric strength of the paper, therefore resulting in failure.

This copper sulphide was created when corrosive sulphur compounds in the oil reacted with the copper conductors.

The British Standard Institute has today released the latest version of BS EN 60422 (IEC 60422)'Mineral insulating oils in electrical equipment. Supervision and maintenance guidance'.

ReActrans is a maintenance free and self regenerating transformer breather which uses the natural and environmental thermal cycle of the Transformer to trigger the reactivation of the desiccant and maintain a high adsorption capacity.

An outward flow of air results from the increasing temperature of the transformer.

This is the result of an ambient temperature change, solar heater or transformer duty loading. In some circumstances all three of these stimulation effects will act collectively.

An integral pressure switch detects a change in pressure caused by the outward air flow displacement.

Eden has now moved in to new offices and warehouse.

After many happy years at Hopewell Drive it was necessary to move in to larger premises to facilitate a wider range of stock in larger quantities.

Close to the A229 link road the new premises also bring closer proximity to the M2 and M20 motorways.
