  • How long does transformer oil last after reclamation?
  • For some transformers, there is data available for up to 10 years after reclamation. The data shows very little change in acidity and color after 10 years of operation since the oil was reclaimed. To prevent excessive production of acids due to oil degradation, it is recommended that the oil be reclaimed before it is severely degraded.
  • How does oil reclamation work?
  • By performing oil reclamation, where the oil is passed through an absorbent, the oil can be reinserted into the transformer in a new state. Oil is a natural material that ages due to the operating environment and transformer properties. Through oil sampling and analysis, the condition of the oil can be inferred.
  • Why is oil processing performed while a transformer is in service?
  • The processing is performed while a transformer is in service to achieve maximum effectiveness with minimum impact on on-site operations. The oil affects the insulation in the transformer, and the insulation affects the oil; hence the condition of the oil impacts the expected life of the transformer.
  • How does oil affect the life of a transformer?
  • The oil affects the insulation in the transformer, and the insulation affects the oil; hence the condition of the oil impacts the expected life of the transformer. The modern reclaiming technology with the reactivation of the absorbent makes it economically feasible to use much more active absorbent material.
