SF6 Gas Collection and Transfer Unit – the New Model GCTU

  1. Attach analysis instrument to the GCTU
  2. Collect SF6 into the GCTU
  3. Analyse or Measure sample
  4. Then transfer SF6 back to source safely without leakage

The Alpha Moisture Systems Model GCTU has been specifically developed to collect all SF6 sampled for moisture and purity analysis.

The GCTU is designed to transfer and recycle the entire SF6 Gas sample back to the High Voltage Circuit Breaker, Switchgear, Transformer or Manufacturing Equipment giving a zero effect to the SF6 applications and protecting the environment by eliminating any discharge to the atmosphere.

  • Fully portable – rechargeable batteries
  • 20 fill/discharge cycles on single battery charge
  • 12 bar maximum back fill pressure
  • Rugged IP67 transport case
  • User friendly operation with built-in fail safe features
  • Supplied ready for use with connectors and a high quality hose

The common usage of SF6 in high voltage switch gear has brought significant advantages in performance and reliability but, because SF6 is a “greenhouse gas”, special precautions should be adopted when routine sample analysis is undertaken.

The NEW GCTU can be utilised with any field analysis instruments and because it is battery operated and fully portable this provides a simple and effective method of achieving an environmentally friendly solution to SF6 analysis and recycling.

Model GCTU is fully compatible with all Alpha Moisture Systems portable dewpoint hygrometers: Model SADPµ, Model SADPMini, Model P35, Model DSP-FCI, Model DSP-Ex
