The SCS series of steel secondary containment systems offer owner/operators

of oil filled transformers an extremely cost effective and practical solution in

providing oil containment for larger power or transmission grid transformers

and delivers true execution of CSR obligations with an appropriate balance between project expenditure and protection of the environment.

Our carbon steel containment systems are manufactured to the highest fabrication standards typically using 5mm carbon steel grit blasted with a 85µm galvanised finish giving a 30-year life for external applications. The containment retention integrity is fully tested using a NDT liquid penetrant of magnetic particle inspection, self certified with a PCN Level 2 certificate prior to leaving our factory. Utilising resistance seam welding joints to BS EN ISO 5817: 2014, Quality Level B which fuses the sheet metal surfaces together at the highest

possible quality level to produce a continuous leak-tight seam.

Individual containment design size and shape is dependent on the type of transformer I.E. number and position of the cooling radiators, cable approach (above or below ground) and connection point; the Capture Green secondary containment system delivers

complete flexibility which embraces all the necessary design challenges and provides a fully engineered manufactured solution delivered to site in a short period.

A containment flame suppression perforated grating system (option) is designed to starve and restrict the fires available oxygen and suppress any ignited oil inside the containment.

The transformer sits directly onto steel universal I beams located inside the containment area, which is supplied with M16 shoulder eye bolts (630kg vertical lift capacity). All containment systems are supplied with an isolation discharge valve with a 1½” or 2” BSP thread to accept the SFT HRC-80 type 1 or 2 hydrocarbon/sediment cartridge filters.

The SSC-DTX system requires a compacted hard and flat surface to sit on and comes with an earthing/grounding flexible copper braid connection to ensure optimum electrical conductivity. Acoustic noise and vibration pollution dampers are utilised where necessary to enable the installation to be as non-intrusive as possible to the local community.

Environmentally Sensitive (ESA) & Flood Risk Areas

The SSC-DTX secondary containment system is ideal for ESA or close to controlled water course electrical installations where situating oil filled transformers is normally a major risk without containing the equipment. The utilisation of a SCC-DTX containment system and HRC-80 hydrocarbon and sediment filter together provide the perfect solution and balance between providing energy to remote rural areas and complete protection of the environment. Traditional concrete bund solutions are simply not suitable for these types of locations due to their inaccessibility, negative environmental impact and high cost.

SSC containment systems can be installed at an elevated height to remove the electrical asset from danger of flooding and further aid flood defence policies and maintain crucial

electricity supply continuity.

SSC Specials & Bespoke Systems

Capture Green offers a custom design service to develop and manufacture steel secondary containment systems to accommodate any size or shape of containment for oil filled electrical equipment, such as transformers (auto, earthing, distribution, power), MV switchgear, inductance coils, capacitors, etc. Designs located within GRP housings are available.

Containment Capacity

Secondary containment systems must have a 110% minimum volume capacity of the equipment's oil volume; in certain circumstances this volume capacity needs to be increased to create a larger ‘freeboard’ area within the containment system.
