3-phase transformer testing is performed by using specialized equipment that measures various parameters, such as insulation resistance, winding resistances, and turns ratios. First, insulation resistance is measured using a megohmmeter to ensure that the transformer insulation is intact. Next, winding resistances are checked using a low-resistance ohmmeter to identify any potential issues in the windings. Turns ratio tests are conducted using a transformer turns ratio tester to ensure that the transformer is performing according to specifications. Additionally, power factor testing can be carried out to assess the quality of the insulation in the transformer. It’s essential to follow safety protocols and manufacturer guidelines during testing to ensure reliable results and prevent damage to the equipment. Globecore offers a range of testers and devices specifically designed for comprehensive 3-phase transformer testing, ensuring accuracy and reliability in diagnostics.
September 17, 2024 at 2:52 pm in reply to: What is the short circuit test for a 3-phase transformer? #120022Yara HaddadMemberThe short circuit test for a 3-phase transformer involves applying a low voltage to one side of the transformer while short-circuiting the other side, which allows us to determine its equivalent series impedance, losses, and other performance characteristics under nominal loading conditions. This test is crucial for assessing the transformer’s ability to handle full-load current and helps in calculating parameters like the copper losses and voltage drop during operation. For industrial oils used in transformers, ensuring adequate cooling and lubrication properties can determine the efficiency of energy transfer. Knowing the health of industrial lubricants through testers, such as those offered by Globecore, can provide insights into potential failures and performance degradation in transformers.

Soil Application: Use 2 to 5 kilograms per hectare. Mix it with soil or apply around the root zone to enhance nutrient uptake and soil fertility.
Seed Treatment: Apply 0.5 to 1 kilogram per ton of seeds. Soak or coat the seeds with the solution to improve germination and early root development.
Always follow the manufacturer’s guidelines and consider conducting a small-scale trial to determine the optimal dosage for your specific crops and soil conditions.Yara HaddadMemberZeolite acts as a molecular sieve in an oxygen concentrator, playing a crucial role in separating oxygen from other gases in the air. Its unique crystalline structure with micropores selectively adsorbs nitrogen when air is passed through under pressure. This selective adsorption increases the concentration of oxygen in the remaining gas stream. The zeolite’s ability to adsorb and release nitrogen efficiently is the cornerstone of the Pressure Swing Adsorption (PSA) technology commonly used in oxygen concentrators. Without zeolite, the concentrator would not be able to provide a high-purity oxygen supply needed for medical or industrial applications.
Yara HaddadMemberA zeolite oxygen concentrator is a device that extracts oxygen from ambient air using zeolite minerals as a molecular sieve. The concentrator draws in air and passes it through zeolite pellets, which selectively adsorb nitrogen due to their porous structure and chemical properties. This process enriches the remaining gas with a higher concentration of oxygen, typically around 90-95%. The technology operates on the principle of pressure swing adsorption (PSA), where pressure changes facilitate the adsorption and desorption of gases. Zeolite oxygen concentrators are commonly used in medical settings for oxygen therapy, as well as in industrial applications requiring high-purity oxygen.

These hydrocarbons are characterized by their long-chain molecular structures, providing excellent dielectric properties vital for electrical insulation. Additionally, transformer oil may contain small amounts of aromatic hydrocarbons, additives for oxidation stability, anti-corrosion, and anti-foaming agents, enhancing its performance and longevity in electrical applications. The transformer oil chemical composition is crucial for ensuring optimal operation, safety, and efficiency in transformer systems.
Yara HaddadMemberPower transformer oil is primarily used as an insulating and cooling medium in electrical power transformers. It helps in dissipating heat generated during the electrical operation and prevents arcing and electrical breakdown by providing high dielectric strength. Additionally, power transformer oil serves to protect the internal components from oxidation and moisture, thereby prolonging the lifespan of transformers. It also helps in the efficient transfer of thermal energy within the transformer, ensuring reliable and safe power distribution in electrical networks.
September 10, 2024 at 4:30 pm in reply to: How is the breakdown voltage of transformer oil tested? #119166Yara HaddadMemberBreakdown voltage testing of transformer oil is conducted using a specific procedure that involves measuring the oil’s electrical insulating properties. The method typically requires a breakdown voltage tester, which applies a controlled voltage to the oil sample until dielectric breakdown occurs, indicated by a spark or arc. During the test, the oil is usually placed between two electrodes within a reactor, and the voltage is gradually increased at a defined rate. This testing assesses the oil’s ability to withstand electrical stress and helps determine its insulation quality. It’s essential to follow standardized testing methods, such as ASTM D877 or IEC 60156, to ensure accurate and reliable results. Globecore offers modern testers designed specifically for determining the breakdown voltage of transformer oil, ensuring compliance with industry standards while providing efficient and precise measurements.
