There are companies that specialize in this type of system constantly circulating and cleaning/reconditioning the oil to extend the life of the transformer....

The first step in the <..process...> is to telephone the equipment manufacturer for advice.

You cannot reclaim Tfx oil on a live Tfx. Once the level drops the Tfx will explode and you and your crew will be dead.

However, you can recycle the Tfx oil while energised to clean it of impurities, water and other contaminant gases and I will not explain how to do that here.

Reclaiming oil from a live Tfx, it is NOT SAFE. Recycling Tfx is Safe. Salaam Alaikum

Oh dear.. you don't understand a thing you might have learnt in college!
I suggest you give up and get a job collecting shopping trolleys at your local supermarket!
Damn it man, you are dangerous on paper, I hate to think what you'd be like face to face!

Maybe he was mislead in understanding reclaim and recycle.

When cycling down hill one can freewheel. When going up hill one must recycle. When reaching the top of the hill, one stops to reclaim ones breath and energy.
