The FR3 dielectric fluid residual gas content tester TOR-8, made by GlobeCore, is used to check the quality of insulating fluids used in transformers and other high-voltage equipment. The presence of dissolved gases in the dielectric can indicate things like aging processes, localised overheating or insulation damage, so measuring these indicators at the right time is an important part of maintenance. The FR3 device uses a process called vacuum degassing, which releases gases that are dissolved in a liquid and measures their volume. The results help to check the condition of the oil or other dielectric fluid and decide whether the equipment should be used again. TOR-8 provides accurate and stable measurement. The system is easy to use, with a control panel and digital display. This makes it simple for the operator to analyse things even when they are out in the field. The device is small, so it doesn’t take up much space, and you can easily carry it with you. All parts that touch the liquid are made of materials that can handle being in an aggressive environment. The FR3 helps you spot problems quickly and stop damage to transformer equipment, so you can be sure it will work safely.
