Application Notes:
 

electrical insulating oil


is high-quality oxidation-resistant naphthenic based oil refined to give long service as a dielectric and coolant for transformers, load tap changers (LTC), oil filled circuit breakers (OCB), reactors, switches, voltage regulators and the like. . Its most common application is as a transformer oil. An insulating oil must resist the effects of elevated temperatures, electrical stress, and contact with air, which can lead to sludge formation and loss of insulation properties. It must be kept dry, as water is detrimental to dielectric strength.  Degradation of these fluids result in the formation of Coking and Filming compounds.

LTC3 Technology.
