• Transformers
• Circuit breakers
• Oil-filled switches
An insulator and arc extinguishing agent in switchgear and circuit breakers X-ray equipment

Performance Features:

• Highly resistant to oxidative degradation
• Resists the formation of oxidation products that can reduce the ability of the oil to insulate and cool electrical windings
• Rapid heat transfer properties
• An essential quality in electrical insulating systems
• Compatible with construction materials
• Compatible with all common construction materials used in electrical systems.
• Outstanding low temperature properties without the need for pour point depressants
• Shell Diala Oils A do not contain PCB's

Performance Specifications:

Shell Diala Oil A meets the ANSI/ASTM/NEMA Type I requirements without the addition of an oxidation inhibitor.

Health & Safety:

Shell Diala Oils A are unlikely to present any significant health or safety hazard when properly used in the recommended application, and good standards of industrial and personal hygiene are maintained.

For further guidance on Product Health & Safety refer to the appropriate Shell Product Safety Data Sheet

Storage Precautions:

The critical electrical properties of Shell Diala Oils A are easily compromised by minute concentrations of contaminants. Typically encountered contaminants include moisture, particulates, fibers and surfactants. It is imperative that electrical insulating oils be kept clean and dry.

It is strongly recommended that storage containers be dedicated for electrical service and include air-tight seals. It is further recommended that electrical insulating oils be stored indoors in climate-controlled environments.
