In industrial transformers, silicone oil is used as an insulating and cooling fluid, particularly in applications requiring high thermal stability and fire safety. Its use allows transformers to operate efficiently under high loads and in harsh environments. Benefits include reduced fire risk due to low flammability, extended service life from resistance to oxidation and degradation, and consistent performance across a wide temperature range. Silicone oil’s environmental friendliness and low maintenance requirements further enhance its suitability for industrial applications.
