Technical Benefits of Biovolt Vegetable Oil

Global Reach

With the growing expansion of power networks worldwide, the use of insulating vegetable oils has become a global reality due to the benefits of the technology, reaching over 1 million devices utilizing it in recent years.

Extended Service Life

Biovolt vegetable oil has a much higher water saturation capacity (15 to 20 times) compared to mineral oils, which significantly reduces the aging rate of insulating paper, directly extending the transformer's service life.

Superior Thermal Class

Transformers with vegetable oil can operate at higher loads compared to conventional fluids, as the same insulating paper in contact with vegetable oil has a higher thermal class (20 °C) without accelerated loss of lifespan.

Compact Transformers

Maximizing the thermal class of Biovolt vegetable oil allows the design of smaller transformers with the same load capacity as mineral oil, without compromising equipment performance.

Greater Reliability

The energy market seeks alternative fluids like Biovolt to ensure electrical system reliability under grid demands, reducing failure rates and improving performance indicators.

Efficient and Sustainable

Using more compact transformers reduces technical losses, especially “no-load losses,” and decreases material usage, making equipment more efficient and sustainable.
