Transformer Insulating Oil Recycling
Water and particulate contamination are the main causes of dielectric oil breakdown and transformer failure. Water acts as an “acid-enabling” mechanism that reduces TAN (total acid number) while particulate contaminates decrease IFT (interfacial tension) and power factor.
As the amount of contamination grows in the insulating oil, the ability of the dielectric oil to maintain the minimum
30Kv performance is degraded, and system failures and service outages will occur.
We have both the knowledge to help you - and a range of filtration systems designed specifically for transformer oil. These systems range from single filter element portable systems to large, in-plant multi-stage, PLC controlled systems with 1 micron particulate filtration, Fullers Earth stage and post filtration.
