What Information Is Needed For A Reliable Analysis?
Accurate transformer diagnostics depend on more than just the physical oil sample. To deliver the precise, reliable data you need to make confident decisions, AVO Diagnostic Services requires specific context about your equipment.
Provide Complete Nameplate Data
We base our diagnostics directly on your equipment's nameplate data. Supplying this foundational information allows our laboratory to establish the correct parameters for your analysis.
Include The Serial Number
The serial number serves as the unique identifier for your unit. Tracking this number creates a unified history for your asset, which helps us monitor trends and predict potential issues before they impact operations.
Specify The Equipment Type
Different assets operate under different environmental and electrical stresses. Identifying the specific equipment type ensures we apply the appropriate diagnostic criteria and safety standards to your unit.
Detail The Sample State
You must indicate the current state of the fluid, whether it is in service, reclaimed, or from new equipment. Each state has different expected values and acceptable limits.
Identify The Liquid Type
Not all insulating liquids are the same. Specifying the exact liquid type is essential, as we must apply different diagnostic limits and thresholds for each specific insulating fluid.
Note The Rated Voltage (kV)
The rated voltage of your equipment influences the acceptable limits for various tests. Providing the rated kV ensures our evaluation accurately reflects the operational demands placed on your system.
Why It Matters
Following these steps is foundational to the unified diagnostic process. It eliminates variables that could compromise your results and supports confident, data-driven decisions for your assets.
Turn Complex Data Into Actionable Insights
By supplying this critical data, you empower our team to transform traditional laboratory results into decisions you can trust. Let's work together to ensure your systems remain safe, reliable, and operational.
