SIGNIFICANCE OF PROPERTIES PARTICULAR TO NATURAL ESTER INSULATING OILNOTE X2.1The significance of common electrical insulating fluidproperties not listed here may be found in Guide D117.X2.1 Physical PropertiesX2.1.1 Aniline PointThe aniline point of

29、natural esterinsulating fluids varies dramatically from source to source. Thevariation is such that the aniline point may not be a dependableindicator of solvency of some materials in natural esterinsulating fluids.X2.1.2 Interfacial TensionInterfacial tension performancecriteria are being assessed;

30、 therefore, requirements have notbeen established. Interfacial tension of new natural esterinsulating fluids, typically in the 26 to 30 mN/m range, is lowerthan that of new mineral oil.X2.1.3 Pour PointThe pour point of a natural esterinsulating fluid is important as an index of the lowest tempera-t

31、ure to which the material may be cooled without seriouslylimiting the degree of circulation. Some natural ester fluids aresensitive to prolonged storage at low temperatures, and theirpour points may not adequately predict their low temperatureflow properties.X2.2 Electrical PropertiesX2.2.1 Dissipat

32、ion FactorDissipation factor (power fac-tor) is a measure of the dielectric losses in fluid. A lowdissipation factor indicates low dielectric losses and a low levelof soluble contaminants. Natural ester insulating fluids usuallyhave higher dissipation factors than mineral insulating oils,especially

33、at elevated temperatures.X2.3 Chemical PropertiesX2.3.1 Water ContentA low water content of natural esterinsulating fluid is necessary to achieve adequate electricalstrength and low dielectric loss characteristics, to maximize theinsulation system life, and to minimize metal corrosion.Reagents for a

34、ldehydes and ketones should be used. Thestandard reagents for mineral oil may yield both elevated anderratic results. The amount of water required to saturate naturalester insulating fluid at room temperature is roughly 20 timesthat of mineral insulating oil. Comparisons to mineral insulat-ing oil s

35、hould be made on a percent saturation (relativesaturation) basis rather than using absolute water content.X2.3.2 Neutralization NumberA low total acid content ofa natural ester insulating fluid is necessary to minimizeelectrical conduction and metal corrosion and to maximize thelife of the insulatio

36、n system. The neutralization numberstypical of natural ester insulating fluids are usually higher thanthose of mineral insulating oils. Natural ester insulating oilstend to form long-chain fatty acids. Mineral insulating oils tendto form shorter chain organic acids.X2.3.3 Oxidation Inhibitor Content

37、The oxidation inhibi-tor additives that may be present in natural ester insulatingfluids vary by manufacturer. The manufacturer should becontacted to obtain information and recommended analysismethods for additives.X2.3.4 Oxidation StabilityOxidation stability require-ments and appropriate test meth

38、ods for natural ester insulatingfluids have not been established. Oxidation stability perfor-mance criteria are being assessed, and may differ for sealedsystems, conservators, and free-breathing apparatus.D6871 173ASTM International takes no position respecting the validity of any patent rights asse
