Set the desired voltage using the manual Variac. Gradually increase the output voltage while monitoring the analog display. The breakdown voltage is detected instantaneously, indicated by the breakdown lamp and meter response.
Q: What safety features are provided in the Metravi 60-OTS Oil Test Set?
A: The unit includes a transparent protective cover, interlock protection to prevent accidental operation, high voltage cut-off, and fuse protection. These features ensure operator safety during high-voltage tests.
Q: When should transformer oil be tested with the 60-OTS device?
A: Transformer oil should be tested periodically during routine maintenance, after installation, or whenever contamination or deterioration is suspected. Regular testing helps ensure the insulating oil maintains adequate dielectric strength, reducing the risk of transformer failure.
Q: Where can the Metravi 60-OTS Manual Oil Test Set be effectively used?
A: This device is ideal for electrical laboratories, transformer manufacturing plants, utilities' maintenance workshops, and research centers throughout India or similar environments where transformer oil quality verification is needed.
Q: What is the process of adjusting the voltage during the oil test?
A: Voltage is adjusted manually by turning the Variac control knob. Start from zero, as indicated by the zero-start indicator, and increase the voltage steadily until breakdown occurs, as shown on the analog meter and breakdown lamp.
Q: What are the primary benefits of using this oil test set for transformer oil testing?
A: The Metravi 60-OTS offers accurate, reliable, and rapid assessment of oil's dielectric strength, enhancing preventive maintenance strategies. Its robust build, safety covering, and adherence to IS 6792 and IEC 60156 standards make it a trusted solution for electrical professionals.
