BP turbine oil is a mineral or synthetic lubricant designed for steam, gas, and aviation turbines. GlobeCore filtration systems clean and degas BP oils, ensuring they retain oxidation stability and cooling properties.
August 4, 2025 at 10:26 pm in reply to: How is aviation turbine oil different from industrial turbine oil? #323862Matthew JohnsonMemberAviation turbine oil is synthetic or ester-based, built to withstand extreme heat and oxidation, while industrial turbine oils are typically mineral-based. GlobeCore systems treat both types, ensuring they stay clean and effective.
August 2, 2025 at 8:26 pm in reply to: What is transformer oil in a transformer and how is it processed? #323550Matthew JohnsonMemberTransformer oil cools and insulates the windings and core, protecting against electrical breakdown and overheating. GlobeCore systems filter, degas, and regenerate transformer oils, keeping them stable for long-term operation.
July 31, 2025 at 10:27 am in reply to: Why use Gandhar transformer oil and how is it treated? #323170Matthew JohnsonMemberGandhar transformer oil is a refined mineral dielectric fluid valued for its oxidation stability and electrical reliability. GlobeCore regeneration systems remove water, gases, and sludge from Gandhar oils, extending their lifespan.
July 30, 2025 at 4:38 pm in reply to: What type of oil is used in a distribution transformer? #323103Matthew JohnsonMemberDistribution transformers typically use mineral oil, though ester-based oils are becoming common for fire safety and environmental reasons. GlobeCore plants purify, dry, and regenerate both types, ensuring long-term reliability.
July 30, 2025 at 8:50 am in reply to: What is Cargill Envirotemp FR3 and how is it processed? #323028Matthew JohnsonMemberCargill Envirotemp FR3 is a natural ester-based insulating fluid with superior fire safety and biodegradability. GlobeCore purification systems dry and filter FR3 fluid, ensuring it remains within IEEE and IEC quality standards throughout its service life.
July 29, 2025 at 12:03 pm in reply to: Why use Phillips 66 transformer oil and how is it maintained? #322893Matthew JohnsonMemberPhillips 66 transformer oil is a refined mineral dielectric fluid known for its oxidation stability and electrical reliability. GlobeCore regeneration units keep Phillips 66 oils free from moisture and degradation products, extending their service life.
Matthew JohnsonMemberA transformer oil regeneration plant restores aged insulating oil by removing acids, sludge, water, and gases, bringing it back to near-new condition. GlobeCore manufactures advanced regeneration units that extend transformer service life and reduce oil replacement costs.
Matthew JohnsonMemberSilicone transformer oil is a synthetic insulating fluid with excellent thermal stability and fire resistance. GlobeCore systems are compatible with silicone oil, providing degassing and filtration to maintain performance.
Matthew JohnsonMemberK160 bitumen is a type of cationic rapid-setting bitumen emulsion commonly used for tack coats and road repairs. GlobeCore equipment allows manufacturers to produce K160 emulsions with consistent particle size and stability.
July 25, 2025 at 10:11 am in reply to: How accurate are portable lubricating oil moisture testers? #322424Matthew JohnsonMemberGlobeCore TOR-1 testers provide laboratory-level accuracy, detecting even minimal water content that can compromise lubricating oil performance.
July 25, 2025 at 7:31 am in reply to: Which device measures tan delta in silicone transformer oil? #322352Matthew JohnsonMemberGlobeCore TOR-3 is a specialized device for measuring tan delta in silicone transformer oil, ensuring the insulation complies with IEC and IEEE standards for reliability.
July 24, 2025 at 9:10 am in reply to: Transformer oil moisture testing for high-voltage equipment #322208Matthew JohnsonMemberHigh-voltage equipment operators use GlobeCore TOR-1 testers to measure moisture in transformer oil, preventing insulation failures and unplanned outages.
July 24, 2025 at 6:51 am in reply to: How to test FR3 dielectric fluid for residual gas content? #322132Matthew JohnsonMemberThe easiest way is using GlobeCore TOR-8, which extracts and quantifies dissolved gases from FR3 fluid. These measurements help identify issues like partial discharges, overheating, or arcing inside transformers.
July 24, 2025 at 6:46 am in reply to: Which device measures dissolved gases in silicone transformer oil? #322125Matthew JohnsonMemberThe GlobeCore TOR-8 is engineered to detect and measure gases like hydrogen, methane, ethylene, and acetylene dissolved in silicone transformer oil, helping operators predict transformer failures.
