CALTRANâ„¢ 60-40 GROUP I TRANSFORMER OIL

Calumet Specialty Products Partners has over 25 years of experience producing highlyrefined, clean, and stable electrical insulating fluids. Calumet participates in the Annual DOBLE Survey on transformer oil. Developed in-house house by Calumet’s R&D group, CALTRAN™ 60-40 Group I is a superior paraffinic transformer oil that fully meets IEC 60296, ed. 4, 2012 general specifications for inhibited oil.

IEC 60296 is a recognized, continually updated, international standard and applicable to specifications and test methods for unused mineral insulating oils. Transformer oil is
categorized into three grades: Trace Inhibited (<0.08% inhibitor content), Inhibited (0.08% - 0.40% inhibitor content), and Uninhibited which contains no inhibitor or antioxidant additives such as DBPC or DBP.
