MIDEL 7131
Synthetic Ester Transformer Fluid
Fire safe and Biodegradable
MIDEL 7131 has a high fire point, significantly increasing the fire safety of your
transformers and reducing the need for fire protection equipment.
MIDEL 7131, with its extremely low pour point of -56˚C, is a highly
effective solution for colder climate installations.
MIDEL 7131 offers the ability to safely increase transformer loading or reduce
transformer size.
MIDEL 7131 Transformer fires are a frequent occurrence in the world’s power networks. Such
IS PROVEN UP fires are notoriously unforgiving, spreading very quickly and causing extensive
damage, sometimes involving loss of life. MIDEL 7131 offers a proven solution
TO 433kV in terms of fire risk mitigation. Specified and used across the globe, MIDEL 7131
has a 100% fire safety record since its introduction in the 1970s.
MIDEL’s engineers and chemists have built close working relationships with end
users and the major transformer manufacturers. They are also active in IEEE,
CIGRÉ and IEC working groups and regularly undertake extensive projects with
industrial associations and academic bodies. Such depth of experience allows
the MIDEL team to provide an unrivalled level of expert technical guidance.
