Above- right: Used transformer oil  Above- left: Same oil after dehydrated.

Transformer oil must be clean and free of water to perform its insulation property.

Oil gets dirty before maintenance period is reached and dirty oil with humidity will accelerate oxidation.

It is possible to use our filtration units to clean and dehdrate the oil while the transformer is in use.

 

Transformer Oil Condition Maintenance Units
Transformer oil gets dirt while in use, this will affect insulation properties of the oil. Use our  filtration unit with water absorbent elements to clean and dehydrate the oil while the transformer is in use. As the oil will be warm, there is no need to warm up and further strain the oil.

TURBINE OIL FILTRATION (GAS TURBINES - WIND GENERATORS)

Turbine oil to lubricate the bearings must be ultra-cean and free of water to prevent oxidation.

Sludge, debris, oxidation by-products and varnish, rust, particle contaminants and wear-out deposits will accumulate in the lube oil system. Oil coolers will be covered by varnish will reduce cooling and further accelerate oxidation.

 

Turbine oil: dirty oil and the same oil filtered on the left. 

Dirt and aging-products in turbine oil will increase viscosity and further contribute to oxidation. High temperature is an oil killer, every 10 degrees over normal temperature will reduce oil life by half. The bearings and lube oil system will be affected.

WIND GENERATORS OIL FILTRATION AND DEHYDRATION

Wind turbine generators operate at high altitudesover 100 meters in an environment where the gearbox oil is subject to contamination and humidity under heavy wind and rain conditions. Maintence and repair is difficult and costly.

Basic problems with wind geneator gearbox lube oil are:

  • Particle contamination

  • Water and humidity

  • Oxidation by-products (Varnish)

   Oil cleanliness requirement for wind turbine gearbox oil

Location of the oil for sample analysis

Expected cleanliness level to ISO:4406

Cleanliness before filling into gearbox

16/14/11

At least 2 micron filtration

Oil in the gearbox after the factory tests

17/15/12

At least 2 micron filtration

Oil in the gearbox during service life

18/16/13

At least 2 micron filtration

Emulsified oil and the same oil dehydrated. Water in free or emulsified state will cause damage to the components and cause oil degradation.
