TIDO® Series – Online Transformer Insulation Drying & Degassing Systems
The HERING TIDO® Series of online transformer insulation dry out systems dry and degasify oil filled transformers of all sizes while the transformers remain energized. TIDO® is the ideal long-term maintenance solution after an initial oil purification using HERING EOK® has been performed. This way the HERING TIDO® extracts moisture and dissolved gasses from the online transformer continuously without causing any downtime in the transformer’s operation. The HERING TIDO® online transformer drying and degassing system avoids equipment failures by stopping the underlying causes of transformer failure. The paper insulation of a transformer will degrade with time through various chemical processes leading to equipment failure & explosion risks.
The main factors influencing this decay are the moisture, temperature, and oxygen inside the transformer. A replacement or repair of the paper insulation is very costly and requires a decommissioning of the transformer as part of the overhaul. Instead, the HERING TIDO® is a non-intrusive solution which takes out both moisture(Transformer Moisture Removal) and gases from the insulation to immediately prevent the deterioration processes in the transformer.

Online drying and degassing your transformers with the TIDO® Series grants:
- Benefits for new transformers – moisture content and gas content can be kept below the original factory level, thus protecting the transformer from day 1
- Benefits for older or wet transformers – Continuous drying over several months brings down moisture & gas content to acceptable levels for extended lifetime
- Effective moisture and gas removal for oil & paper – TIDO® ensures lowest possible moisture and gas levels within transformer oil and insulation material
- Insulation drying for vacuum-rated and non-vacuum-rated transformers – The moisture removal takes place within the vacuum tight TIDO® equipment without affecting the transformer operation
- No downtime due to transformer overhaul – TIDO® units can be operated on energized transformers as effectively as on un-energized transformer
