We provide a transformer condition assessment service based on the Transformer Condition Assessment TCA® method. This is a comprehensive assessment of the dielectric and mechanical condition of the transformer by analyzing the insulating fluid.
Monitoring aging processes of oils and their insulating and cooling
Evaluation Condition of a device, e.g., a transformer and its suitability for further operation operation
Possibility Avoid failure, which often has very serious consequences economic
Planning Maintenance activities well in advance
Low Testing costs compared to electrical measurements
Possibility Sampling of running equipment
We use the Transformer Condition Assessment TCA® method to obtain the best possible source of information. The TCA® offered by Ecol is a comprehensive assessment of the dielectric and mechanical condition of a transformer by analyzing the insulating fluid. The tests include, in addition to the usual physicochemical, DGA and furan compound tests for insulating fluids, among others, a microscopic examination to better understand the problems and risks associated with continuous transformer operation.
The TCA® testing program includes:
One way to obtain diagnostic information from a transformer is to identify suspended particles and sludge contained in the oil. These particles provide information about current and past processes in the transformer.
Integrating particle analysis with traditional testing is a useful tool to help understand the mechanisms underlying transformer operation under non-standard conditions or to assess the degree of aging.
TCA® integrates test data, trend analysis and provides important information for managing transformer operation
Information on the dielectric and mechanical condition of the transformer enables better management of its load
Support for repair procedures and risk management leads to fewer failures and increased reliability
Dissolved gas analysis (DGA) is the most useful method for detecting the initial phase of defects, the development of which can lead to equipment damage.
DGA diagnostics, carried out on the basis of chromatographic examination of dissolved gas content, their dynamics of change as well as mutual relations, is a valuable source of information on the current technical condition of transformers, transformers, switches and other electric power equipment, in which electrical insulating fluids (mineral and silicone oils, esters) are used.
