Why C-7400 Is Ideal for Transformer Applications
Transformers require gasket materials that can withstand continuous exposure to insulating oils, temperature fluctuations, and years of compression without losing sealing integrity. KLINGERSIL® C-7400 excels in these critical areas:
- Excellent Oil Resistance helps maintain gasket performance when exposed to transformer insulating fluids and oils.
- Outstanding Aging Properties support long service life and reduced maintenance requirements in utility and industrial transformer installations.
- High Dielectric Strength (22 kV/mm) provides an additional level of electrical insulation performance, making it particularly well-suited for electrical equipment applications.
- Low Gas Permeability and Excellent Sealability help minimize fluid leakage and protect valuable transformer assets from contamination and oil loss.
- Strong Recovery and Compression Characteristics allow the gasket to maintain sealing force despite thermal cycling and equipment vibration.
- Chemical Resistance to moderate acids and caustics adds durability in challenging operating environments.
