Application Case

Transformer oil furfural testing method with chromatography pump support

A transformer oil method targeted furfural as an aging indicator for transformer paper insulation, using the DL/T 984-2018 reference and chromatography pump support to build a practical industrial testing workflow.

Background

Requirement context

The China site explains that furfural in transformer oil is associated with paper insulation aging. This creates a useful industrial application page beyond food, pharmaceutical, and environmental testing.

Selection challenges

What needed confirmation

Connect the industrial sample matrix to a chromatography method rather than a general instrument inquiry.

Confirm pump performance, detector selection, column conditions, and sample preparation requirements.

Document the reference method and aging-indicator purpose for technical review.

Workflow architecture

From requirement to quotation

Instruments

High-pressure pump, HPLC system, detector, column, and workstation by final method selection.

Confirmation Layer

Transformer oil sample, furfural target, reference method, flow requirements, and documentation.

RFQ Review

Industrial chromatography RFQ for transformer oil aging-indicator testing.

Configuration path

Application stages

Flow delivery

LC-500Q high pressure infusion pump or HPLC pump module

Provide stable flow for transformer oil furfural method conditions.

Chromatography analysis

HPLC separation, detector, column, and workstation by final method

Measure furfural as an indicator related to transformer paper insulation aging.

Result

RFQ output and buyer value

Reference method

DL/T 984-2018 was listed as the reference.

Industrial buyers can start from a recognized power-industry method.

Application value

Furfural content is used to evaluate transformer paper insulation aging.

The case links chromatography equipment to a clear maintenance and risk-control purpose.

The case expands Tianzhao's application coverage into power equipment oil testing.

It gives LC pump and HPLC modules a method-based use case.

The RFQ should request sample matrix, method reference, pump requirements, detector, column, and documents.
