We developed the AGRU-8 for our customers who found they needed more storage and recovery capacity than smaller handcart mounted units, the AGRU-8 is available without the bulk and high price of a large skid or trailer mounted unit. The equipment is designed for use in field service of insulated metal clad switchgear, bus ducts and individual circuit breakers. The AGRU-8 SF6 Gas Servicing Cart shall be fully assembled on a two-wheeled heavy-duty handcart, which shall be sufficiently braced to minimize vibration. Handcart will be complete with lifting eye, hose hook and power cable storage.

One diaphragm type vacuum compressor, 0.24kW motor, 5 m3h-1 displacement (60 Hz), ultimate vacuum: 20 mbar. (Optionally available - Scroll vacuum compressor with ultimate vacuum whilst recovering SF6 of < 1 mbar – allows 99.9% SF6 gas recovery) |
Equalization circuit |
One Equalization circuit, to allow for high-pressure restarts of the compressor |
Discharge check valve |
Nine discharge check valve, brass, prevents high pressure going back to compressor when performing a low-pressure equalization. |
Condenser |
One High efficiency, 4-pass, air-cooled SF6 condenser to aid in liquification of SF6 at higher ambient temperatures. |

Blank off pressure: 0.08 mbar. |
Storage Tank |
Cylinders secured onto a tray and manifold, in order to store up to 156 kgs. of SF6 in liquid form indefinitely, at ambient temperatures of less than 114ºF (45.5ºC), without the need for refrigeration. The AGRU-8 shall come equipped with an external storage port, to which any SF6 Gas cylinder or tank rated at 40 bar minimum) can be attached to allow for unlimited storage of SF6. All storage tanks shall include an isolation valve, and an approved safety relief valve. |
Filters |
(D1) & (D2) – Dryer Pre- Filter & Filter - Contains activated alumina to aid in the drying and purification of SF6 Gas |

Pressure Gauges |
One (4” stainless steel) for equipment pressure (compound) |
Vacuum Gauge |
0-50 mbar for vacuum system |
Pressure Regulator |
One Pressure Regulator, Brass body, 0-7 bar spring, to allow for safe regulated filling of SF6 equipment. |
Hoses |
Two Permeation Rubber Resistant Hoses: 12 mm I.D. X 4.5 meter. Long, complete with quick disconnect self-sealing end fittings. Hoses will be suitable for system pressure, temperature and flow. |
AGRU-8 - Optional Upgrades and Accessories |
|
Stainless Steel (SS) Tubing |
Unit can be supplied with stainless steel tubing replacing the standard copper tubing |
Stainless Steel Hoses |
Unit can be supplied with stainless steel hoses replacing the standard rubber hoses |
Storage Tank |
- An optional SF6 Cylinder, Size H - 52 kg., with CGA 590 valve connection with no check valve, 99.9% dry can be provided. The AGRU-8 has a capacity to hold 3 bottles on board to give a total storage capacity of 156 kgs. |
Storage Tank Heater |
300 W storage tank heater. Heater comes with its own power cable and has a thermostat preset at 125 ºF (52 ºC) and is protected from overheating by a thermal cut-off. The heater maintains an even temperature for a constant positive pressure that speeds up the charging process. |
Electronic Weigh Scale |
An optional electronic cylinder weighing scale to monitor the filling of the SF6 cylinders. Weigh scale system comes complete with an adjustable maximum weight set point and includes a weighing system and cylinder mounting bracket. |
DN-20 Style Quick Connections |
Unit can be supply with DN-20 style quick connections on equipment and hoses |
Increase Hose Length |
Unit can be supply with 6m. hoses instead of 3m. |
PLC Control Touch Screen |
Unit can be supply with PLC control Touch Screen with Automatic or Manual Valve Control instead of conventional panel control |
Increase Vacuum Compressor/Pump |
Unit can be supply upgrading ultimate pressure of vacuum compressor <1mbar (instead of 20mbar). Also, unit can be supply upgrading vacuum pump to 40 m3h-1(60 Hz) |
