GENERAL WARNINGS
MAIN CHARATERISTIC
this is an off-circuit tap changers. It means all switching manoeuvre must be performed after disconnecting
transformer by the electrical net opening the sectionalising switches, both HV and LV side, so transformer
becomes off-circuit.
DIMENSION
All dimension reported in case of drawings attached are in millimetres (mm)
TRANSFORMER OIL
All our tap changers are suitable to work in oil immersed transformers according to standard IEC 60296.
In case user need to use specific oil (silicon, synthetic or vegetal) it is necessary consulted CAPT technical
office who verify the functionality of tap in all the mechanicals, electrical and chemical characteristics.
INSULATION MATERIAL
The insulating materials used are bakelite (paper laminates and phenoplastic resin) of “E” thermal class.
GASKET
Gasket supply in our tap changers and in our transmission drive handles are type NBR and they are suitable
for oil transformer, indicate for temperature in oil between -25°C and +100°C and for temperature on air
between -25°C and +40°C, according to IEC 60214-1/2.
On request, we can supply tap changer with special rubber for low temperature till -60°C and for high
temperature till +200°. These gaskets are suitable for oil transformer and they can be in HNBR, VITON, in
Silicon rubber. They can be used in arctic or tropical conditions.
DRYING TREATMENT
Different drying treatment can be process by customer: oven, in a vacuum autoclave, vapour-phase or
other. In this process is normally included tap changer too. The maximum temperature suggested by CAPT
for our tap changers is 100°C-120°C for a time or 24÷36h.

GENERAL
OCTC “Off Circuit Tap Changers” series “AT-M-KL” are rectilinear type TAP CHANGERS, oil filled installation,
inside transformer tank, horizontally or vertically assembled.
They are composed of a fixed Bakelite bar support, insulated material, where are assembled the fixed
contacts and a sliding Bakelite bar support, insulated material, where are assembled the sliding (moving)
contacts.
They can be three-phase, single-phase, two-phase, simple, double or triple, with a unique drive.
DIRECT DRIVE:
They are supplied with a pad-lockable manual drive handle (1.12.120, 1.12.130, 1.12.212, 1.12.212BE),
to install on the cover or on upper part of transformer tank wall.
INDIRECT TRANSMISSION:
All the manual commands are equipped with mechanical/manual locking mechanism with padlock (1.12.101,
1.12.104, 1.12.201, 1.12.202, 1.12.202-2, 1.12.202BE, 1.12.208, 1.12.209, 1.12.210, 1.12.401, 1.12.402,
1.12.408, 1.12.409, 1.12.501, 1.12.502) which are installed on the side of the transformer’s tank. Some of
these commands are also equipped with one or more micro-switches to consent the electrical locking of
the bus-couplers of the transformers and for the remote control of all the positions.
OVERLOADS
CAPT Tap Changers do not restrict the transformer emergency loading according to IEC 60076-7.
To perform the switching operation, the operator must proceed as follows. The first one and indispensable
operation is to disconnect transformer by the electrical net opening the sectionalising switches, both HV
and LV side, so transformer becomes off-circuit.
After that is necessary to open the padlock (where applied), lift the blocking knob on the drive and turn the
drive clockwise or anticlockwise according to the position change required up to reach the new position.
ENGLISH
Then put inside the blocking knob so that the final part comes in the correspondent hole, at the end replace
if necessary the padlock.
N. B. ALL SWITCHING MANOEUVRE MUST BE PERFORMED OFF-CIRCUIT.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS OF THE CONTROL DEVICE (INDIRECT TRANSMISSION)
When the control device with the indirect transmission is equipped with, not only the mechanic locking
mechanism, but also with micro-switches, the terminal board must be connected by following the procedures
shown in the enclosed drawings of the instruction booklet. It is absolutely necessary to connect the locking
mechanism, specially if the hand-wheel makes more then 1 rotation to change a single position.
If they are available, connect the micro-switches for the remote control of the positions and manoeuvres.
MAINTENANCE
It is recommended, during transformer maintenance or at least once a year, if tap changer has been always
in the same position, to perform at least 10 switching manoeuvre across its full range.
In this way will be avoided that a thin film build-up on the active parts of fixed and moving contacts, due
to oxidation, impurities, waste deposit in the oil and to guard against “pyrolitic” carbon formation which
can occur when contacts remain on one position for long periods with result an increasing of contact
resistance.
Before and after this self-cleaning operation, would be useful check the efficiency of tap changer by a
resistance of phase’s measurement.
DIRECT DRIVE:
It is not necessary to remove the tap changer from the cover but only lowering the oil level below the top
level of the tank.
In case of tap changer drive assembled on top of tank wall, lowering the oil level below the level of drive.
INDIRECT TRANSMISSION:
It is not necessary to disconnect the tap changer, but you only need to lower the oil-level to below the
line of the indirect transmission gear connection or of the control box mounted on the lid, or affixed
on either the top or the bottom section of the transformer’s tank side.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION
In case of any doubt concerning assembling or operational question, please contact CAPT Technical
office.
ASSEMBLING
Tap changer assembling procedure, drive and fittings are explained on attached drawings.
$URING ASSEMBLING OPERATIONS CHECK THAT SURFACES WHERE /2 SEALS ARE INSERTED MUST BE mAT AND CLEAN
without dusty or corrugated.
- Be very careful when the shaft must be drilled to insert the elastic/cylindrical pins. Avoid any slot and
check the correct drill diameter.
- Arrange tap changer and drive control in the middle position before to lock the gear shafts with pins to
DIVIDE THE CLEARANCE IN BOTH OPERATION DIRECTIONS I E WHEN TAP CHANGER HAS POSITIONS IN POS &IG
B/C pag. 11)
- Please check very carefully that in all phases, the moving contacts are well centered between the fixed
CONTACTS &IG $ PAG
- The tap changers have to be installed parallel with the tank wall/cover from which they exit. Therefore
THE DRIVESHAFT HAS TO BE PERFECTLY PERPENDICULAR &IG ! # PAG
INDIRECT TRANSMISSION:
In the case the assembly diagram instructions call for the use of universal type “1S” joints, pay great
attention to the drilled sections “Z” where the cylinder pins are inserted. These pins are highlighted in the
