The filter industry is in a state of confusion about rating their filters. Customers want a simple way to compare filter elements so the micron ratings system was invented. A micron rating is an arbitrary value assigned to a filter by the manufacturer, not an actual measured value. It quotes a particle size without establishing the filter’s efficiency at removing that size particle.

The function of transformer oil is insulation and cooling of transformers. A transformer consists of metal, oil, and cardboard insulation. The oil is actually insulating oil and is used not only in transformers, but also in circuit breakers, capacitors, bushings, and tap changers. Insulating oil is a refined mineral oil obtained from fractional distillation of crude oil. It is free of moisture, inorganic acids, alkali, sulfur, asphalt, tar, and vegetable or animal oils.

Phosphate esters are polar fluids with excellent lubricating properties that can operate under extreme conditions such as electro-hydraulic compounds for steam and gas turbines, aircraft carriers, as well as steel mills and foundries. However, phosphate esters require strict control in order to extend their useful lifespan.
