Shell Diala S4 ZX-IG is derived from purified natural gas which is used to produce a tightly controlled iso-paraffinic hydrocarbon chemical structure. This base fluid chemistry delivers consistent and reliable performance, compared to naphthenic- based oils whose molecular structure can vary significantly depending on the source and refining process. With its gas-absorbing characteristics it is an ideal choice for applications with severe dielectric stress where enhanced safe operation is desired.
HEAT TRANSFER PROPERTIES / THERMODYNAMIC PERFORMANCE
Its excellent low temperature viscometric properties promote proper heat transfer inside the transformer, even from very low starting temperatures. OUTSTANDING OXIDATIVE STABILITY Compared with naphthentic oil, its improved thermal properties help to reduce Shell Diala S4 ZX-IG performs better the aging rate of both the oil and insulating paper to extend the lifetime of your than the highest industry standard for transformers. It offers excellent performance across a wide range of temperatures oxidation stability, thereby ensuring and has especially outstanding low-temperature flow properties. better efficiency and a longer operational life. It offers improved transformer reliability owing to its resistance to degradation and effectively zero sulfur level1, which removes the risk of oil-related copper corrosion. Good oxidation stability also means less risk of forming sludge, and sludge free systems have better EASE OF HANDLING cooling performance. Shell Diala S4 ZX-IG is simple and easy Sulfur content below 1 ppm detection limit of ASTM D5185. to use. It is fully miscible with naphthenic 1
oils which eases the transition to Diala
from most all other products. In fact, adding it to typical naphthenic grades can improve their performance. It displays lower density, excellent air release and low foaming tendency thanks to its iso- paraffinic technology. Additionally, these characteristics help improve transportation cost, lower overall product weight for installation efficiency and facilitate improved transformer oil filling procedures.
