Nynas has launched an Arctic grade transformer oil that complies with one of the world's most advanced standards regulating the use of mineral oils in transformers.

The new oil, NYTRO Polaris GXN, is an Arctic grade oil that withstands the toughest climate conditions and complies with the Canadian Class A CAN/CSA-C50-14 specification, one of the world's most advanced standards regulating the use of mineral oils in transformers, Nynas states in a press release.

Class A oil is recommended for use in power transformers, especially those subject to cold start-up or that have forced oil cooling, including associated on-load tap changers, all of which operate in ambient temperatures below -25°C.
