Turbine oil prices vary by viscosity grade, mineral or synthetic base, certification, and supplier. GlobeCore regeneration systems help lower costs by extending oil life through purification.
August 3, 2025 at 11:26 am in reply to: What is virgin transformer oil and why is it preferred? #323640James ShepherdMemberVirgin transformer oil is unused, uncontaminated insulating fluid that meets strict purity standards. GlobeCore treatment systems ensure virgin oils remain clean during storage and processing before filling transformers.
James ShepherdMemberTransformer power oil is a dielectric fluid—mineral, ester, or silicone—used for insulation and heat transfer in high-voltage transformers. GlobeCore regeneration plants restore power oils by filtering, drying, and degassing them.
James ShepherdMemberOMG oil insulates high-voltage parts and cools the core and windings, preventing overheating and electrical failure. GlobeCore purification systems ensure OMG oils remain moisture-free and compliant with international standards.
James ShepherdMemberOld transformer oil often contains sludge, acids, and water, reducing its insulating performance, but it can be regenerated. GlobeCore regeneration plants restore degraded oils to near-new condition, making them reusable and cost-effective.
James ShepherdMemberIEC 60296:2012 updates testing and purity requirements for mineral transformer oils, tightening standards for oxidation and moisture control. GlobeCore regeneration plants ensure processed oils comply with the latest IEC 60296 revisions.
James ShepherdMemberFor a 33 kV transformer, the insulating oil BDV usually needs to exceed 40 kV. GlobeCore purification systems help achieve and maintain this by eliminating contaminants that reduce dielectric strength.
July 29, 2025 at 5:44 am in reply to: What is electrical transformer oil and how is it processed? #322845James ShepherdMemberElectrical transformer oil is a mineral or ester-based dielectric fluid used for insulation and cooling. GlobeCore systems purify and regenerate these oils by removing contaminants and dissolved gases, restoring their dielectric strength.
July 29, 2025 at 12:10 am in reply to: Why use synthetic ester transformer oil and how is it maintained? #322815James ShepherdMemberSynthetic ester transformer oils provide high fire resistance and environmental safety, making them ideal for urban and eco-sensitive areas. GlobeCore equipment degasses and filters ester oils, ensuring they maintain dielectric strength and stability.
James ShepherdMemberTransformer mineral oil is a petroleum-based insulating fluid used in most transformers for cooling and insulation. GlobeCore regeneration units restore used mineral oil to like-new condition, reducing replacement costs.
James ShepherdMemberSS bitumen emulsion refers to slow-setting emulsions used for priming and soil stabilization in road construction. GlobeCore plants allow efficient production of SS emulsions with adjustable breaking time and consistent quality.
James ShepherdMemberBitumen emulsion sold at retailers like Bunnings is typically a ready-to-use, water-based bitumen coating for household or light construction projects. GlobeCore supplies production plants for industrial-scale emulsions with superior consistency and durability.
July 25, 2025 at 11:51 am in reply to: Field testing kit for silicone transformer oil tan delta #322470James ShepherdMemberGlobeCore TOR-3 serves as a portable field testing kit for tan delta measurements of silicone transformer oil, ideal for mobile crews and substations.
James ShepherdMemberYou can quickly check water levels in lubricating oil with GlobeCore TOR-1 testers, ensuring oil quality remains high and avoiding corrosion or wear in critical equipment.
July 24, 2025 at 10:42 am in reply to: Field testing kit for residual gas detection in Midel 7131 transformer oil #322266James ShepherdMemberThe GlobeCore TOR-8 serves as a portable kit for dissolved gas analysis, enabling technicians to run tests during field maintenance without external lab support.
