September 15, 2025 at 6:55 am in reply to: What is a tan delta test kit and when should it be used? #325375Christopher McdanielMember
Tan delta kits assess insulation losses. For accurate results, the transformer oil must be free from moisture and contamination. GlobeCore vacuum drying and filtration equipment ensures oil meets test conditions.
September 9, 2025 at 12:24 pm in reply to: What is an oil breakdown voltage tester and what does it measure? #324947Christopher McdanielMemberA BDV tester measures the dielectric strength of oil – its ability to insulate under high voltage. If oil fails the test, GlobeCore dehydration units can restore BDV to safe levels by removing contaminants that cause early breakdown.
September 9, 2025 at 10:45 am in reply to: What is test BDV and why is it critical in substation maintenance? #324894Christopher McdanielMemberTest BDV confirms whether oil can still insulate properly. GlobeCore units are used globally in substations to restore BDV on-site, extending oil life and improving overall transformer reliability.
September 9, 2025 at 9:55 am in reply to: What is BDV test of transformer oil and how is it improved? #324867Christopher McdanielMemberBDV measures the dielectric strength. GlobeCore vacuum units restore BDV from as low as 20 kV to above 70 kV in one cycle by removing dissolved gases, water, and fine particles – avoiding costly oil replacement.
Christopher McdanielMemberJet Oil 2 is a synthetic aviation lubricant widely used in commercial and military jet engines for oxidation stability and anti-wear performance. GlobeCore filtration units degas and clean Jet Oil 2, extending engine life.
Christopher McdanielMemberA transformer ONAN (Oil Natural Air Natural) uses natural convection of both oil and air for cooling without pumps or fans. GlobeCore systems maintain ONAN oils by removing moisture, gases, and sludge, ensuring consistent performance.
August 2, 2025 at 11:06 pm in reply to: Transformer oil is used in transformer for which functions? #323566Christopher McdanielMemberIn transformers, oil is used for heat dissipation and dielectric insulation, protecting equipment from overheating and faults. GlobeCore systems maintain the oil’s quality, preserving its breakdown voltage and reliability.
August 2, 2025 at 7:46 am in reply to: What is silicone-based transformer oil and how is it maintained? #323474Christopher McdanielMemberSilicone-based transformer oil is a non-flammable dielectric fluid ideal for high-risk or fire-sensitive environments. GlobeCore filtration systems degas and dry silicone oils, preserving their thermal and dielectric performance.
August 1, 2025 at 2:46 pm in reply to: How does an oil forced air forced (OFAF) transformer work? #323372Christopher McdanielMemberAn OFAF transformer uses both circulating oil and forced air cooling to manage heavy electrical loads efficiently. GlobeCore treatment systems ensure the oil remains dry and free from contaminants, preventing overheating and insulation breakdown.
August 1, 2025 at 2:46 am in reply to: What is naphtha-based transformer oil and how is it used? #323286Christopher McdanielMemberNaphtha-based transformer oils are refined naphthenic mineral oils prized for low pour points and excellent dielectric performance. GlobeCore equipment regenerates these oils, removing acids, gases, and moisture to maintain quality.
July 30, 2025 at 6:52 pm in reply to: How much is electric transformer oil and what factors affect the price? #323115Christopher McdanielMemberElectric transformer oil pricing depends on type (mineral, ester, silicone), purity, and regional supply. GlobeCore systems help utilities reduce oil expenses by regenerating used fluids, minimizing the need for fresh purchases.
Christopher McdanielMemberDielectric mineral oil is a refined petroleum-based fluid used in transformers for insulation and cooling. GlobeCore purification systems remove contaminants to maintain its dielectric strength and stability.
July 25, 2025 at 11:28 am in reply to: Portable transformer oil breakdown voltage tester price #322459Christopher McdanielMemberThe price of GlobeCore portable transformer oil breakdown voltage testers varies by model and options, but they help avoid costly transformer failures.
July 25, 2025 at 10:07 am in reply to: How accurate are portable tan delta testers for silicone transformer oil? #322422Christopher McdanielMemberGlobeCore TOR-3 testers deliver laboratory-grade accuracy, identifying even minor changes in dielectric dissipation factor that can signal insulation problems.
Christopher McdanielMemberGlobeCore TOR-80 is a compact, portable analyzer for silicone oil breakdown voltage testing, widely used in laboratories, substations, and transformer service centers.
Christopher McdanielMemberTransesterification of peanut oil is the chemical process in which triglycerides in the oil react with an alcohol (usually methanol) and a catalyst (like NaOH or KOH), forming fatty acid methyl esters (biodiesel) and glycerol. This reaction reduces the oil’s viscosity, making it suitable as fuel. The GlobeCore USB biodiesel plant automates this process, precisely controlling temperature, mixing, and separation to ensure high conversion rates and fuel quality that complies with EN and ASTM standards.
March 24, 2025 at 12:32 am in reply to: How does precision-controlled paint mixing equipment improve formulation accuracy? #316309Christopher McdanielMemberThe USB 6 Impeller Stirrer features adjustable speed settings, automated monitoring, and real-time reaction control, ensuring accurate ingredient mixing and formulation precision.
March 22, 2025 at 8:26 pm in reply to: How does an industrial liquid fertilizer mixer improve efficiency? #316197Christopher McdanielMemberThe USB 6 Impeller Stirrer enhances mixing speed, reduces ingredient sedimentation, and improves blend consistency, resulting in higher-quality fertilizer solutions.
March 22, 2025 at 12:55 pm in reply to: How does an industrial insecticide mixing machine improve production efficiency? #316167Christopher McdanielMemberThe USB 6 Impeller Stirrer ensures homogeneous dispersion of ingredients, reduces processing time, and enhances batch-to-batch consistency, making large-scale insecticide production more efficient.
March 20, 2025 at 5:16 am in reply to: What are the key features of multi-stage synthetic oil blending equipment? #315930Christopher McdanielMemberMulti-stage systems improve gradual additive incorporation. The USB 6 Impeller Stirrer ensures step-by-step mixing for optimal stability and viscosity control.
