Evolution of Cooper Power Systems Less-Flammable Transformer Fluids

Waukesha, WI, July 25, 2005 - For the past 30-plus years, Cooper Power Systems has marketed transformer fluids that outperform traditional petroleum-based mineral oils, particularly in the areas of fire safety and environmental compliance. The first entry into the market was R-TempÂ-® fluid in 1975. R-Temp fluid has significantly higher flash and fire points than traditional petroleum-based...

Modular Substations offer solution for custom needs.

Able to reduce on-site field installation time by up to 75%, pad-mounted modular substations are suited for sites with limited time and manpower. Components and equipment are pre-assembled on structural base and shipped ready for installation and energization. With aesthetically pleasing low profile, transformers are suited for urban and remote locations, including residential, industrial, and...

Distribution Switchgear does not use gas or oil insulation.

KyleÂ-® NOVA(TM) encases vacuum interrupter in cycloaliphatic epoxy to eliminate need for insulating fluid, gas, or foam. Requiring no maintenance throughout life of product, unit has polymer casing that resists UV radiation. It maintains self-cleaning, unblemished surface with low adhesion to contaminants. Polymer also resists tracking, reducing flashovers. NOVA technology is available in...
