What is BS EN 61039 – Classification of insulating liquids about?
BS EN 60085 is an International Standard. BS EN 60085 establishes the detailed classification of the N family (insulating liquids) that belong to class L (lubricants, industrial oils, and related products). This is done in accordance with ISO 8681 and ISO 6743-99, affecting product categories that include products derived from petroleum processing, synthetic chemical products, and synthetic and natural esters.
Who is BS EN 61039 - Classification of insulating liquids for?
BS EN 60085 on the classification of insulating liquids is relevant to:
- Manufacturers and suppliers of insulation oils
- Electrical equipment industry and technologies
- Electrical engineers
- Mechanical industry
Why should you use BS EN 61039 - Classification of insulating liquids?
The main function is to protect solid insulation, quenching arc discharges, and dissipating heat, insulating liquids can also act as acoustic dampening media in power equipment such as transformers.
BS EN 61039 provides you ISO classification system, classification of insulating liquids and
Summarising the outline that enhances the thermal performance of the building envelope which refers to the part of the insulation.
If you are a manufacturer of insulating liquids, BS EN 61039 is beneficial as it could result in improved characteristics such as optimised liquid cost, increased cooling performance, improved flashpoint, extended insulation life, and reduced environmental impacts. BS EN 61039 can also make positive contributions to your product development initiatives.
