Dismantling of transformer substations
Dismantling from a single source
If you are planning the conversion of voltage fields, switching stations or entire transformer substations, we are the right partner for you.
We separate, dismantle and disassemble complete outdoor systems, transformers and switching equipment on site to transport size and then transport the materials to our recycling facilities using our own vehicles. Our experienced staff then dismantles masts and gantries on site. We dismantle your transformers, circuit breakers, electric coils, stranding and piping and recycle them as waste in our plant. Pollutants such as SF-6 gas or oil-bearing cables are professionally emptied by us before dismantling and the remaining recyclable materials are then recovered by us and returned to the material cycle.
As we have decades of experience in the scrap and metal trade, we dismantle transformers, joints and other devices with composite materials ourselves and strip cables of all kinds in our own approved recycling facilities. We then return the recovered individual metals to the material cycle.
Your advantage – when working with us you get the complete dismantling from a single source and do not have to coordinate different trades. This simplifies communication and documentation.
Dismantling transformer substations
Are you planning to dismantle a transformer substation with or without demolition? We would be happy to make you an offer. Depending on your requirements, we can take over the dismantling of parts or the complete dismantling and disposal. We remove cables, recycle portals and aluminum or copper cables and dismantle entire fields or individual parts of the system. We dismantle contaminated plant components such as SF 6 gas circuit breakers, oil cables or oil-containing plant components in accordance with legal requirements. We are a specialist company in accordance with the German Water Resources Act (WHG) and are qualified to work in accordance with TRGS 519, TRGS 521, the PCB Ordinance and other relevant regulations. We have suitable transport containers and transport hazardous goods in accordance with ADR regulations if required. Set us your task - we will be happy to make you an offer.
What can we do for you?
Dismantling of switchgear
We offer complete dismantling and disposal solutions for partial and complete conversions of transformer substations. We undertake the complete demolition and dismantling and recycle scrap as well as copper cables and the dismantled hazardous waste such as transformers, circuit breakers, transformers and oily cables in an environmentally friendly manner in our own recycling plant. We also evacuate SF 6 gas-filled plant components before transportation in accordance with legal regulations.
Dismantling of oily cables
Our teams dismantle your oily cable routes on site and load them directly into suitable containers. We have oil-tight roll-off containers with a volume of 20 cbm in which we transport the cables safely and in compliance with the law. In our approved recycling facility, we accept high and low-pressure oil cables and recycle them in accordance with the statutory regulations under AVV number 17 04 10. We also accept oil-containing joints or cable fittings under AVV 17 02 04.
SF6 gas plants
Especially when it comes to the disposal of SF 6 gas-filled appliances and systems, it is important that hazardous substance- , hazardous goods- and waste regulations are complied with. Depending on the decomposition products contained, very different legal regulations apply, all of which we comply with. We specialize in the disposal of SF6 gas-filled equipment and switchgear and have our own analysis- and evacuation equipment with the appropriate connections for any SF6 gas disposal tasks.
Deconstruction of switchgear
The conversion or dismantling of indoor switchgear poses special challenges in terms of limited space and the removal of hazardous substances. So thought advanced materials were often used at the time of construction that are now hazardous waste when being disposed of. We have the tools and licenses necessary and are able to analyze and dispose of asbestos or PCB-containing adhesives and flooring just as professionally as SF-6 systems or mineral fiber waste. Of course, we will provide you with all required waste disposal documentation once the work has been completed.
Transformer dismantling
We dismantle and recycle transformers of all sizes in our own BImSchG-approved facility. We organize and handle the removal of the transformers and their transport to our grounds. Of course we provide you with the proper waste disposal certificates in accordance with the NachwV. For transformers under 20 tons per source and year, our collective disposal certificate is used.
Moving of large transformers
We have the expertise and equipment to move large transformers from their foundations to a new location or onto a low-loader. We use mobile hydraulic rams, mobile hydraulic pumps as well as the cable winches and hydraulic units of our Unimog to move transformers that cannot be craned due to low roofs or nearby live cables.
