In today’s world, the Installation, Operation and Maintenance of electrical power and distribution assets are vitally important. Effective Maintenance and asset management can have a profound impact on your business, its level of customer service and also can be a key driver to your operational decisions that is why maintenance and Asset Management are becoming increasingly important.
The aim is to reduce the costs for replacement and repair and to increase the lifetime of your capital goods. Therefore, early determination of possible malfunctions is an important aspect in your routine maintenance to try your best level to avoid any unexpected breakdowns or “Black Outs” under all circumstances.
Golden Say “High reliability is equal to an increase in efficiency and profitability”. Insulation Oil is considered to be one of the weakest points on a transformer. This perception must be considered in any maintenance concept. That is where our SERVICE starts with.
SERVICE:
The lifetime of transformer oil is not equal to the lifetime of a transformer itself. There are several predictive maintenance techniques to take into account and determine the condition of the insulation oil.
The most known measurements are:
- Dielectric strength testing.
- Loss factor measurement in oil.
- Water content measurement accord to Karl Fischer.
- Total gas content measurement.
- Dissolved gas analysis (DGA).
All these parameters will give you a clear understanding of the overall condition of your transformer oil. The service approach at KALMEN - ME brings together the ability, skills and associated product knowledge to provide a comprehensive range of services.
