Use Cases
From utilities to industrial operations, these are the challenges Delta-X Research helps solve.
Avoiding Unplanned Outages
The most catastrophic transformer failures are ones that could have been predicted. By applying Reliability-based DGA, maintenance teams identify transformers with elevated fault energy before they reach the failure threshold — enabling planned intervention instead of emergency response.
Eliminating False Alarms
Conventional DGA limits generate a high volume of alerts that don't correspond to real problems. Maintenance teams that chase too many false alarms burn through resources and gradually lose confidence in their monitoring programme. R-DGA reduces false alarms by grounding alerts in failure statistics — not arbitrary thresholds.
Fleet Prioritisation
When multiple transformers show elevated gas levels, which one gets attention first? TOA's fleet view ranks every transformer by risk level, giving asset managers a clear, defensible basis for maintenance prioritisation and capital planning.
Online Monitor Integration
Online DGA monitors produce continuous data streams — but raw monitor data is noisy and difficult to interpret reliably. Monitor Watch brings that data into TOA's analytics engine, applies signal processing, and delivers the same quality risk assessment as lab samples.
“If we prevent one transformer failure by a proactive replacement, the find pays for all services rendered and subscription costs.”
