Toronto, ON - Kinectrics is excited to announce that its
state-of-the-art, low-frequency heating (LFH) transformer insulation drying
service will be available in early 2023. Constantly striving to exceed clients’
expectations, this mobile, dry-out system will be the most powerful of its kind
in North America. This modern solution to managing moisture issues in power
transformers will offer the fastest and most-effective process for field-drying
transformer insulation. This technology will yield excellent results in days, offering
its clients an alternative to slower, less effective vacuum oil processing.
“Kinectrics is pleased to enhance its growing list of innovative
transformer services,” said David Harris, CEO and President of Kinectrics. “Led
by industry experts, our transformer low-frequency heating service offers our
clients a safe option that significantly reduces down-time and expedites
return-to-service.”
This
new LFH service can quickly and efficiently dry transformers up to 1200 MVA,
three-phase, 765 kV class. In addition, the dry-out system’s performance and
ability to remove moisture from the insulation can be easily validated using
dielectric spectroscopy, dew point measurement, and rate of moisture
extraction. Understanding the critical need for a robust and growing transformer
service portfolio, LFH drying is yet another way that Kinectrics can help keep
your transformers healthy and operating efficiently throughout their entire
life cycle. This capability also adds to Kinectrics’ other transformer services
that includes field testing, partial discharge testing, oil testing, forensic
studies, and transformer consulting.
