Oil Dehydration

The four major causes of oil deterioration are: particulate contamination, moisture contamination, acid build-up, oxidation products. These four causes of hydraulic oil deterioration create contaminated oil and viscosity fluctuation, which in turn creates the need for frequent oil changes and/or cleaning. Failure to address these issues results in a myriad of mechanical and operational problems.

In this process, we can eliminate the solid particles, dissolved water and dried up the moisture and sludge from the transformer oil.

Dehydration method is also used to maintain the temperature of the transformer oil. 75 % of the transformer can fail due to the moisturization in transformer oil. The Centrifuge is another method to filtrate dirt from the transformer oil. Before the filtration of oil in high vacuum transformer oil filtration the oil is mixture with 10% of water and 15% of air.

Dehydration increase the insulating properties of transformer oil. The life of the transformer depends on the quality of the transformer oil. So the oil should be filtrate and dehydration method is important for the transformer.

Transformer oil is necessary for insulate the transformer. If the transformer oil is impurity less, then the transformer can be lasting for a long time. Filtration and dehydration of transformer oil are most necessary for the transformer.
