medium and large power transformers. Waukesha has done a variety of tests to
understand how to use natural ester fluid in larger transformers. Waukesha has
built more new power transformers and retrofilled more existing units with FR3
than any other manufacturer on record.

Natural Ester Fluids / Envirotemp™ FR3™ Fluid

Envirotemp FR3 fluid is a patented, biodegradable, seed-based dielectric fluid
designed by Cooper Power Systems. Made from a formulation that includes
vegetable oils, FR3 fluid has been proven to add value to new and retrofilled power
equipment.

Main Benefits
• Environmental biodegradability
In conjunction with recognized testing organizations, the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (EPS) created the Environmental Technology Verification
(ETV) Program to further environmental protection by accelerating the
acceptance and use of innovative, improved and more cost-effective
technologies. By objectively and systematically documenting the performance
of commercial-ready environmental technologies, the ETV program assists and
informs those in need of credible data before utilizing a new technology.
• Fire safety
This benefit comes from having an exceptionally high fire point (360°C).
Because of this, FR3 fluid is listed as a Less-Flammable Dielectric Liquid by
Factory Mutual and Underwriters Laboratories for use in complying with the
National Electric Code™ (NEC) and insurance requirements.
• Slows the aging rate of cellulose insulation versus the same material in mineral
oil tests conducted by the developer, indicating a dramatic increase in cellulose
insulation life.
• Dramatically smaller carbon footprint than traditional mineral oil. According
to calculations made by the National Institute of Standards and Technology
(NIST) using their B.E.E.S. calculator, natural esters have less than two percent
of the carbon footprint of mineral oil.

Insulating Oil Treatment

Vokes® Streamline™ is a high-efficiency insulating oil filtration system that returns
the oil to a high level of dielectric strength.
• Removes particles, including fibers, rust and colloidal carbon
• Eliminates free and dissolved water Streamline
