AIR CELL FOR TRANSFORMER

In addition to their superior strength, flexibility, chemical resistance and ease of installation, SOFTEXs conservator bladder tanks are remarkably inexpensive. Custom conservator bladders can be quickly built to any size, complete with flanges and fittings.

SOFTEXs Conservator Bladders, also known as Air Cells, are fully collapsible bladder tanks which are readily fitted into the conservator vessels of utility transformers. These air filled bladders are designed to expand and contract with the transformer oil so as to isolate that fluid from the atmosphere. Conservator bladders are open to atmospheric pressure and exclude moisture, dirt and oxygen from the dielectric oil chamber. SOFTEX conservator bladders exhibit superior flexibility which allows instant volume compensation as the transformer oil expands and contracts. Maximum chemical and abrasion resistance are achieved by a double-layer coating of SOFTEXs unique rubber compound. Superior puncture strength is also provided by a high-tenacity nylon mesh insert fabric.
