Always leading the pack

History
Always leading the pack

Since the company's founding in 1868, we have always been a step ahead of the competition in terms of technology. Our inventions have caught on globally and set the standard in energy technology to this day. The VACUTAP® on-load tap-changer, TAPCON® voltage regulator, ETOS® transformer operating system, MTraB® intelligent dehydrating breather and TESSA® asset performance management are five examples from our innovative product range that set the standard globally and are therefore rightly sold under the MR brand.

Condition Assessment of Power Transformers

The average age of installed transformers is increasing all over the world. Furthermore, as an operator, you are faced with new challenges such as higher and fluctuating transformer loads from renewable energies, higher probabilities of equipment failure, and a lack of information about the condition of your transformers. In order to enable cost-effective management of a transformer fleet, we have developed FLEETSCAN 2D ˗ a two-dimensional approach for precise condition assessment. Our recommendations for action supports you in the optimum allocation of resources and budgets.
