Post date February 8, 2023

EMT continues to be at the forefront of innovation and ahead of the curve when it comes to insulating gas testing, analysis and handling technologies. That’s why we’re looking ahead to the introduction of alternative insulating switchgear gases including Novec 4710 (g3) & 5110 and Dry/Clean Air.

Our new multi-mode SF6 and Eco gas product portfolio addresses key concerns of preventative maintenance strategy including costs, labour, complexity and time; and delivers a number of operational benefits; to ensure you can be responsive to industry changes; with upgradeable equipment and tools for any future SF6 or Eco applications.

Eco+ Zerowaste 4in1 SF6 & Eco Gas Analyser

Our game-changing Eco product range is spearheaded by the Zerowaste Rapide Eco+ the world’s first 4in1 insulating gas analyser. This unique technology can determine the quality of SF6 insulating gas; in addition to SF6 alternative gases Novec 4710 (g3), Novec 5110, and Dry/Clean Air systems; allowing users to test any insulating gas and its breakdown products; on one portable, easy to use instrument, within just 1-2 minutes; 4x more productive than using multiple analysers; with just 1 calibration…

Verify Verification Gases

…for which we can provide NIST traceable gases for in the field verification and calibration.

Smartfill Filling and Topping Up Systems

Our trusted Smartfill technology also delivers future proof peace of mind, and is now available for portable filling, top-up and leak management of SF6 and Eco gas filled assets.

Moisture Pro Portable Dew Point Meter

We know that moisture is a big issue in on-going maintenance, so we’ve got that covered too; with the EMT Moisture Pro handheld dew point analyser; which is also Eco ready! In fact one of our largest and long established utility customers in the US is currently employing a large number of these units in their clean air applications.

Leak Hunter Handheld Detector

If leak detection is your priority, then we’re launching a new handheld SF6 & Eco gas leak detection product at the PowerTest show, which promises to make ‘hunting’ for leaks quick, simple and reliable.

SmartMix Automated Gas Mixing Products

There’s also some exciting new developments coming from the EMT engineering division; where the team have been hard at work on a new automated gas mixing system for Novec and Dry Air blends.

Dry Air Products

If you’re in the market for dry air switchgear specifically, EMT’s Eco+, Smartfill CTU, Smartfill MFU, and Moisture Pro products are all ready for dry air applications!

There are so many reasons to attend the PowerTest event and to visit EMT on booth 823

Post date November 23, 2022

EMT’s comprehensive and growing portfolio of insulating gas management solutions includes a range of portable and fixed monitoring and gas detection systems, to ensure the safety and protection of personnel and assets, whilst meeting global compliance standards.

EMT Smartfill CTU

Designed for managing leakage of SF₆ from circuit breakers and other plant, Smartfill CTU is a unique SF₆ ‘live topping up’ leak management device, which provides 24/7 monitoring and automated continuous top-up of leaking assets, dosing gas as required with no waste and no leakage. This smart system enables operators to start top up remotely; records cylinder pressure to eliminate downtime from empty cylinders; and alerts engineers of any issues via SMS. Smartfill technology reduces SF₆ usage, costs and inventory, provides transparency for legislative reporting, and ensures business continuity.

EMT Pressure Validation Kit

Designed to deliver fast, simple, accurate pressure gauge verification, EMT DPG solves the problem of inaccurate or out of calibration equipment pressure gauges. Supplied in kit format with fittings and hose for easy connection to asset test points, this essential tool provides engineers with an accurate NIST traceable (ISO 17025) pressure reading and is Eco gas ready.

Personnel Gas Safety Monitors

Operating companies have a duty of care to employees to protect them in the workplace from substances hazardous to health and are legally bound by Workplace Exposure Limits (WEL) on SF₆, alternative gases and their by-products. EMT offer a range of portable and fixed, personal and area gas safety monitors to protect personnel in hazardous areas such as indoor cylinder stores and confined spaces. From single to multi-gas detection, team protection and area monitoring, these critical devices provide low cost, low maintenance, effective solutions to ensure safety when working with SF₆, Novec, Dry Air, and breakdown gases.

EMT Site Services

Our Site Services team can provide a range of hire equipment to clients with urgent or short-term instrumentation requirements, including lease of the Smartfill CTU for 24/7 SF₆ gas monitoring and leak management. This smart solution negates engineer call outs, the challenges of scheduling engineers for repeated visits to site to top up leaking assets, and the associated costs of managing this.

EMT News SF6 Gas Handling

Products and services expertly developed for best practice SF6 gas handling

Post author By Lisa Redmond
Post date November 8, 2022

Driven by regulation and standards on SF₆ emissions, the energy industry is moving forward with strategies for carbon neutrality and the collection, treatment and recycling of SF₆ gas. IEC and CIGRE guidelines specify a number of gas handling requirements when performing key tasks within SF₆ operations and process control. Key to which, is monitoring and recording SF₆ passing through the network; operators must understand how much SF₆ has been used, lost, and replenished. Effective maintenance procedures, transparency and accuracy of data are all critical to meeting legislation.

EMT specialise in insulating gas management, delivering products and services expertly developed for best practice SF₆ gas handling. Our range includes everything from advanced technologies for SF₆ filling and topping up, nameplate verification, gas carts and pump systems; to fittings and accessories designed to ensure a more efficient fill during maintenance tasks; and onsite client support services including degassing, top-ups, gas replacement and regeneration.

EMT gas handling solutions take into consideration the safety of personnel, time, resource and costs, and deliver complete compliance and traceability of SF₆ inventory and usage. Find out more about our market leading portfolio…
