A system, device, and a method for determining a compound content in transformer oil are provided. The method includes positioning a syringe filled with transformer oil in the device to transfer the oil to a vial using the device. The device includes a stand, a threaded rod, a handle, a disc, and a syringe holder. The threaded rod is movable in a vertical direction by rotation of the handle and is configured to apply pressure via the disc on a plunger of the syringe positioned in the syringe holder to maintain an airtight connection between the vial and the device. The compound content is determined using a gas chromatograph by analyzing an aliquot extracted from a headspace gas of the vial.

Device, system, and method for analyzing transformer oil

An apparatus for measuring the rate of CuS formation in power transformers comprising a sealable transformer vessel and a sealable lid with at least four sealable ports, and an internal apparatus configuration involving a copper metal sheet, a power transformer, a temperature sensor, and a weighing device providing real-time feedback data, whereby these components are submerged in an effective amount of a reactive sulfur-containing transformer oil and sealed. An inert gas atmosphere is provided within the transformer vessel by a gas bubbler. The transformer oil is heated with a heating bath to a reactive temperature for CuS production. A method of measuring the rate of CuS formation whereby the apparatus is purged with an inert gas, heated to a reactive temperature, examined for CuS formation, the CuS produced is quantified and the rate of formation of CuS is calculated.
