Insulating oil in x-ray tubes is tested using several methods, including dielectric strength tests, moisture content analysis, acidity testing, and dissolved gas analysis (DGA). Dielectric strength measures the oil’s ability to prevent electrical discharges, while moisture analysis checks for water content that can reduce insulation efficiency. Acidity testing detects oxidation byproducts, and DGA identifies gases that may indicate equipment faults. Regular testing ensures that the oil continues to function effectively. GlobeCore offers filtration systems that help maintain the oil’s quality by removing contaminants, extending its useful life.
