Testing container
View Patent ↗A testing container includes a right-parallelepiped-like container, electrical components of a transformer test system which are arranged in the container and which represent a respective heat source during a testing operation, and a cooling system including at least one heat exchanger. In addition, the testing container includes a movement apparatus configured to move the at least one heat exchanger from a transport position within the container into a working position which is located at least partially outside the container. Thus, the at least one heat exchanger is movable by means of the movement apparatus from the transport position within the container into the working position which is located at least partially outside the container.
1. A testing container, comprising
a right-parallelepiped-like container;
electrical components of a transformer test system which are arranged in the container and which represent a respective heat source during a testing operation;
a cooling system including at least one heat exchanger; and
a movement apparatus configured to move the at least one heat exchanger from a transport position within the container into a working position which is located at least partially outside the container.
2. The testing container as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the cooling system comprises a closed cooling circuit of a cooling medium, and
wherein the at least one heat exchanger is a condenser, and at least one evaporator connected to the condenser via the cooling circuit is comprised in an interior of the container.
3. The testing container as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the cooling circuit is formed between the at least one movable condenser and the at least one evaporator at least sectionally by a flexible hose line.
4. The testing container as claimed in claim 3 , comprising:
a plurality of evaporators in the direct vicinity of respective heat sources in the interior of the container.
5. The testing container as claimed in claim 2 , comprising:
a plurality of evaporators in the direct vicinity of respective heat sources in the interior of the container.
6. The testing container as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the at least one heat exchanger is movable in drawer-like fashion through openings provided for this purpose out of a side wall of the container.
7. The testing container as claimed in claim 6 , wherein a plurality of heat exchangers are movable out of one or more side walls of the container.
8. The testing container as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a plurality of heat exchangers are movable out of one or more side walls of the container.
9. The testing container as claimed in claim 1 , comprising:
means for effecting a forced flow of ambient air around or through the at least one heat exchanger.
10. The testing container as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the right-parallelepiped-like container has the dimensions of a standard transport container and is approved in accordance with CSC (International Convention for Safe Containers).
11. The testing container as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the right-parallelepiped-like container has an internal supporting structure comprising hollow struts, and at least some of the hollow struts, with at least a section of their respective interior, form part of a closed cooling circuit of the cooling system for the container.
12. The testing container as claimed in claim 11 , wherein a plurality of hollow struts are arranged on a base of the container, the hollow struts being configured to transfer a load due to the weight of components arranged in the container and whose respective interiors are flow-connected to one another as part of the closed cooling circuit.
13. The testing container as claimed in claim 12 , wherein the plurality of hollow struts are arranged parallel to one another.
14. The testing container as claimed in claim 12 , comprising:
an evaporator of a cooling system for the container, the evaporator being formed by at least some of the hollow struts.
15. The testing container as claimed in claim 11 , comprising:
an evaporator of a cooling system for the container, the evaporator being formed by at least some of the hollow struts.
16. The testing container as claimed in claim 15 , comprising:
a separate hose-like or tube-like hollow body guided in the interior of at least one hollow strut,
wherein a section of the closed cooling circuit is formed by the hollow body.
17. The testing container as claimed in claim 11 , comprising:
a separate hose-like or tube-like hollow body guided in the interior of at least one hollow strut,
wherein a section of the closed cooling circuit is formed by the hollow body.
18. A testing station system for power transformers, the testing station system having a modular design and comprising at least one testing container as claimed in claim 1 having corresponding power transformer test apparatuses.
19. The testing station system for power transformers as claimed in claim 18 , comprising:
an inverter for test purposes, the inverter being formed by the electrical components arranged in at least one right-parallelepiped-like container.
