For dry-type transformers having a 220 [degrees] C insulating system and a winding hot-spot temperature of 220 [degrees] C, and with no unusual operating conditions present, the 20-yr life expectancy is a reasonable time frame.he 80 [degrees] C transformer requires operation at 75% or more of full load for a 2-yr payback, and at 100% load to payback in 1 yr over the 150 [degrees] C transformer.
Exposure to arsenic through drinking water is a great threat to human health. Arsenic is a carcinogen and its consumption can negatively affect the gastrointestinal tract and cardiac, vascular and central nervous systems.
Health Effects of Arsenic. It was stated in an earlier section (What is arsenic?) that the different forms of arsenic have different toxicities. This is probably due to a number of different factors: how well they get in to the body (absorption), where they are distributed, how they are modified in the body, and how fast they are flushed out. 1  If the poison is not in the body for long, it wonât have much time to exert its effect. It also wonât be able to build up to higher concentrations over time, so it is less likely to reach a toxic level. The form of arsenic determines whether or not it is charged and how soluble it is in water or lipids (fats).
