Read MoreOverheating in a transformer will acclerate the aging process of the celulose paper and other insulation materials. According to IEEE Standards C57.91, approximately each 6-8 degree increase in temperature will doubles the rate of decay in the transformer limiting it's useful life.
Pressure builds within a transformer due to temperature increases sustained during an internal fault situation. Qualitrol manufactures a variety of pressure devices to mitigate pressure build-up within a transformer.
Often overlooked as an important indicator, measuring oil level is a necessity as it monitors the insulating fluid in the transformer. A high level may indicate overheating conditions as the oil is expanding or indicate over-filling of the tank. A low level may indicate a leak or a catastrophic issue.
Dissolved gas is a vital indicator of the winding health of the transformer. Overheating and arching liberate a variety of gases that can be measured and used to pinpoint potential problem areas to avoid catastrophic failures.
