Upcoming Live Lesson: Understanding Alternative Fluids in Transformers

We are excited to announce the 17th live session of the Transformer Oil course, titled:
“Alternative fluids – basic features influenced by chemical structures”
📅 Date: July 10, 2025
🕑 Time: 2:00 PM CET
📍 Location: Online – Transformers Academy Platform
💡 Available on demand after the live session
This master’s-level lesson will explore the key chemical and physical characteristics of alternative transformer fluids—including natural esters, synthetic esters, and others—and how their molecular structure influences properties such as dielectric strength, cooling performance, aging behavior, and environmental impact.
What you’ll learn:
Differences in chemical structure between mineral oil and alternative fluids
How molecular design affects transformer operation and longevity
Overview of bio-based fluids and their role in sustainable design
Real-world applications and performance considerations
The session is designed for transformer and fluid manufacturers, utility engineers, chemists, laboratory experts, students, and all professionals interested in sustainable transformer solutions.
Thanks to the support of Ergon, this lesson is free of charge and remains accessible on demand for 365 days.
