Delta-X Research

Delta-X Research provides Transformer Oil Analyst™ (TOA), the market leading tool for managing and interpreting insulating fluid test data for high-voltage apparatus. Our diagnostic software is a critical decision support tool that delivers accurate and timely assessments into the health of transformers. Transformers are your most expensive assets, and dissolved gas analysis (DGA) is the leading indicator of incipient faults. But interpreting test data is complicated, so Delta-X Research invests in scientific research and development of our extensive test history database to thoroughly understand the relationship between transformer performance and changes in insulating fluid. With the application of sound reliability engineering statistics combined with new metrics (NEI – Normalized Energy Intensity), we are creating the most advanced analytical methods in the industry. With our enhanced analytics, our customers: - detect problems earlier so remediation costs are minimized; - reduce expenses for maintaining equipment that does not require maintenance by avoiding “false positives”; - extend the life of assets as they receive more appropriate levels of maintenance; - improve decision making regarding the application of capital spending for transformer replacements; and - reduce transformer failure rates, thereby avoiding significant replacement/repair costs and unplanned outages that adversely affect revenue and relations with customers & regulators. Generation, transmission and distribution utilities, as well as leading industrial operations around the world, rely on Delta-X Research to provide accurate and timely insights into the health of their high-value assets. TOA Monitor Watch extends TOA to process online DGA monitor data automatically and provide high-quality status and diagnostic information to operations & maintenance teams and enterprise systems.
