Transformer Oil Management & Conditioning

Your transformer’s oil is more than just an insulating medium — it plays a critical role in cooling, protection, and the overall reliability of your equipment.

At AM Transformer Services , we provide professional transformer oil management solutions designed to extend transformer life, improve performance, and reduce the risk of costly failures.

Over time, moisture, gases, and contaminants can accumulate within transformer oil, compromising insulation strength and accelerating internal deterioration. If left untreated, these conditions can lead to serious equipment damage, unplanned outages, and in severe cases, catastrophic transformer failure.

Following Dissolved Gas Analysis (DGA) or moisture testing, our team can perform on-site oil dehydration and degassing without the need to completely drain the transformer. Using advanced heat and vacuum processing technology, we restore oil quality while the transformer remains in service wherever possible.

Our specialised oil treatment process:
✅ Removes moisture and dissolved gases
✅ Improves dielectric strength
✅ Helps prevent insulation breakdown
✅ Extends transformer service life
✅ Reduces the risk of costly downtime and failures

By heating the oil and applying vacuum extraction, trapped gases and moisture are effectively removed from both the oil and transformer windings, helping to restore the transformer to optimal operating condition.

Protect your investment. Improve reliability. Extend transformer life.

Transformer Oil Management – Protecting Your Transformer Investment

At AM Transformer Services , effective transformer oil management is a key part of ensuring the reliability, efficiency, and longevity of your transformers.

Transformer oil plays a critical role in both insulation and cooling. Over time, moisture, gases, and contaminants can accumulate within the oil, reducing performance and increasing the risk of equipment failure. If left untreated, these issues can lead to costly breakdowns, unplanned downtime, and even catastrophic transformer failure.

When oil analysis indicates elevated moisture levels or abnormal dissolved gas concentrations, our specialist oil treatment services can restore the oil's condition without the need for complete oil replacement.

Using advanced heat and vacuum dehydration and degassing technology, we remove harmful moisture and dissolved gases from transformer oil, helping to:

✅ Extend transformer life
✅ Improve operational reliability
✅ Reduce the risk of failures
✅ Minimise costly downtime
✅ Restore oil performance and insulation properties

Our oil processing system continuously treats and returns conditioned oil while preventing gas contamination. The controlled heating process also assists in releasing trapped moisture and gases from transformer windings, ensuring a more effective treatment process.

Protect your assets before problems arise.

🔥 Prevent costly breakdowns before they happen.

Using advanced thermal imaging technology, we at AM Transformer Services can detect hidden hotspots and abnormal heat in DB boards, transformers, and electrical equipment — long before they lead to failures, downtime, or safety risks.

Infrared thermography allows us to identify problems that are invisible to the naked eye, helping businesses improve reliability, reduce maintenance costs, and keep operations running safely and efficiently.

✅ Detect hotspots early
✅ Prevent unexpected failures
✅ Improve equipment reliability
✅ Reduce downtime and costly repairs

Thermal imaging is a powerful predictive maintenance tool designed to protect your electrical systems and keep your business powered. ⚡

Oil in the transformers needs to be routinely sampled, the results of these samples will indicate the status and health of the transformer.

This serves to confirm that AM Transformer Services, works with the highest integrity, therefore in our services we undertake to do your oil sampling and send them to Oilwatch to be analysed. This is a registered laboratory and is ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and 17025 registered company.

On receipt of the reports, AM Transformer Services will send you the accredited report, with a quotation should any further work to be done.

AM Transformer Services employees highly qualified transformer services staff with over 25 years of experience in this field. AM Transformer Services will send a fully qualified team to do any work on your premises which includes:
TRANSFORMER MAINTENANCE | OIL SAMPLING AND ANALYSIS | OIL PURIFICATION | SWITCHGEAR MAINTENANCE | ELECTRICAL SCANNING | HV VAULT FINDING.
