To regenerate silica gel effectively, it is crucial to heat it to a temperature between 120°C and 150°C. This heat causes the moisture trapped in the gel to evaporate, restoring its absorption properties. Place the silica gel in a thin layer on a baking sheet for 2-3 hours in a conventional oven. For industrial needs, GlobeCore offers advanced silica gel regeneration units that automate the process, ensuring optimal heat distribution and consistent regeneration results, which helps maintain high performance for reuse.

First, ensure that the transformer is disconnected from any circuit. Use a multimeter to test the primary and secondary windings; measure the resistance across the windings to ensure they are within acceptable ranges and do not show an open or short circuit. Next, apply a low AC voltage to the primary side and measure the corresponding secondary voltage using a voltmeter to confirm the output aligns with the specifications. Additionally, a dielectric test may also be performed to ensure the insulation integrity, which is crucial for operational safety. It is important to wear appropriate safety gear during this testing process and handle the transformer carefully to avoid electrical hazards. Proper testing of components like microwave transformers is essential for ensuring safe and effective operation in industrial applications, just as precise testing of industrial oils ensures their optimal performance in machinery and systems.
