5.3. Sampling rules:

Bad weather (rain, snow, fog, windy days are not outdoors sampling), inevitably do not pollute the oil

The container should be dry, the container mouth with a clean cotton cloth wipe, release part of the oil rinse sampling port and catheter

Start sampling to allow oil to flow along the container wall, to avoid bringing more air casing, the transformer must be sampled when the power outage

For special tests, please use a special test

The need to use the syringe must check the sealing performance of the syringe

Each sample should have an accurate mark

6. Transformer oil test

6.1. Appearance

Test method: visual inspection

Quality standards: transparent, no impurities or suspended solids

New oil is generally light yellow, China's production of transformer oil, especially the No. 45 transformer oil, due to cut the lower temperature of the fraction, and the use of excessive refining and antioxidant process, the appearance of the color lighter, almost colorless. Transformer oil in operation, affected by the environment and their own oxidation of resin and other factors, the color will gradually deepen. Transformer oil color of the rapid changes in the oil is usually generated when the arc caused by carbon.

6.2. Pour point, pour point

Testing method:

Solidifying point:

Implementation of the standard: GB / T 510

Method of operation: the test sample installed in the test tube, and cooled to the expected temperature, the test tube tilted 45 ° after 1min, observe whether the flow of liquid.

Calculation and judgment: When the test tube tilted 45 ° angle after 1min, the liquid does not flow the maximum temperature, that is, the freezing point.

Precision: The same operator repeated the difference between the two results should not exceed 2.0 ℃.

Note: ⑴ to strictly control the cooling rate, can’t be too fast; ⑵ measured the temperature of the thermometer in the test tube position must be fixed firmly; ⑶ sample to do a test, you must reheat to 50 ± 1 ℃, do Next test. ,

Pour point:

Implementation of the standard: GB/T 3535

Method of operation: the sample after preheating, at the required speed of cooling, every 3 ℃ check the flow of a sample.

Calculation and judgment: observe the sample can flow the minimum temperature, that is, pouring point.

Precision: The same operator repeated the difference between the two results should not exceed 3.0 ℃.

Note: the same sample measured on the pour point and pour point is not exactly the same, generally pour point higher than the freezing point 1 ~ 3 ℃.

6.3. Closed flash point

Implementation of the standard: GB/T 261

Method of operation: the sample in a continuous stirring, with a very slow constant speed of heating. In the case where the provisions are temperature intervals and interruption of agitation, a small flame is introduced into the cup, and the experimental flame causes the minimum temperature at which the steam flashes on the pattern is the closed flash point.

Calculation and judgment: the effect of atmospheric pressure on the flash point of the correction, according to the following formula ⑴ or ⑵ calculated at the standard atmospheric pressure 101.3kPa or 760mmHg column flash point correction number Δt (℃)
