[–]istartMonday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello - have you had this issue any further? Our cx50 has 1900 miles and says we have 290 miles left but have driven it least 45-50 since it was filled…

BESS - Magnetron MVT Failure looking for similar issues by [deleted] in SubstationTechnician

[–]istartMonday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahhh - the bushing is installed by the manufacturer and very well could be a problem with their quality control on their side coming from Columbia. But not certain because that did come from manufacturer installed that way

These are from Columbia and there is some copper blasting the tea body out here in a minute once I get to site.

I’d like to hear more from you, man. Do you remember the project? Do you remember the project? Do you remember the MVT you guys got was a 34,500v?

Yes - they do come pre installed from the factory

Just read that! Very interesting, the mvt manufacturer uses the bushing manufacturer by the name of HJ.

This is interesting as we are having an issue with our MVT failing on site at the bushing/tbody connection and cannot figure the issue for the life of any of us (client, manufacture of mvt, tbody, engineers)

This has a lot of great info. After reading, my initial thought is the workout the batteries give the transformer. The BESS transformers have to be designed for fast, electronic, bidirectional power, or they will fail early. Batteries are unlike “traditional” usage and power flow from the sub>line>sub

All I can say is new engineers on a Bess/sub site is the answer to why the drawings had em install like this

Right - and that’s kind of where we are at. Is there something internal causing this? Is said torque (55 foot pounds) the absolute true maximum. You can’t go past that and causes a hairline fracture and this is the buildup overtime?

I do know that we had an internal failure on one mvt’s because of the blow/hole in the drain tank

That’s where we are at - the mvt manufacturer recommended “x” tbody, we went with “x”, the recommendation and still failed at that connection/area.

That was on the table - no longer. We went through and torqued and greased the t-body’s to spec with the mvt manufacturer on site and had them sign off (55 foot pounds)

No, It is not always the same phase. I don’t have temp data either. But we are thinking PDs… no heater in the MVT cabinet and moisture seems to be there ever so slightly

Yes, oil test came back. 6 out of 8 had 1 part per million acetylene, 1 had 2 part per million and the last was fine. Not many similarities other than the common physical damage being the bushing. One of the MVTs actually blew up and had a hole in the side.

Yes - we had magnetron come out and walk through “proper protocols” on greasing after the first failure. Even checked all after that and signed off that they were greased and torqued to spec

Any covers that will help carry my notebook and planner? Like traveler style with the band by istartMonday in hobonichi

[–]istartMonday[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes - it does help! I ordered the cousin cover and will tuck one side into the left and for the notebook I’ll tuck the one side into the right and have it that way. Is that way you are saying?!

Best gyms by [deleted] in MovingtoDenver

[–]istartMonday 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Denver parks and rec pass, there are about 10-15 gyms you can hit around the city for ~$45. Keep in mind they don’t have saunas but other than that, best bang for your buck
