Transformer Site Services
To save Canadian institutional, commercial and industrial businesses time and money, Aevitas owns and operates a fleet of transformer oil trucks, tankers and equipment which allows us to safely and efficiently provide such transformer site services as:
Transformer drainingFor both small and large quantities of transformer oil, we offer full environmental protection with the use of our portable "spill containment berm". This enables our transportation service vehicles’ full transformer oil volume to be contained should an emergency rupture or spill occur while draining your transformer oil.
Transformer degasificationDissolved moisture and gases in transformer oil can cause arcing, corona discharges and overheating, affect its insulating strength, and reduce its overall efficiency. Our transformer degasification service extracts dissolved gases and moisture from transformer oil, helps to prevent damaging issues from occurring, and prolongs the service and life of your transformer.
Transformer retro-fillingRetrofilling the oil in a transformer is a great way of reducing PCB contamination. During our company’s PCB transformer retrofill process, transformer oil is drained from your transformer, then it is flushed and refilled with new insulating oil. During the refilling stage our company will degasify the oil and vacuum fill the equipment. Flushing the equipment is critical to the process in order to eliminate internal surfaces of PCB contaminants, and to remove sludge build-up from the transformer. We can use your oil, or provide insulating oil that meets the demands of your unique application. Our transformer site service experts can help you choose the best transformer oil for your needs: naphthenic based or new paraffinic oil, silicone fluid, or new MODEF 60 transformer oil.
