Robust, intuitive & reliable answer to air leaks

Transformers are sealed to keep ambient air and its oxygen from leaking in. Oxygen will prematurely age and weaken the paper in your transformer's windings, potentially shortening your transformer's operational life by years.

Measuring oxygen directly is not needed

While it seems like the obvious answer, using online oxygen measurement to detect air leaks is anything but simple. 

If you have an oxygen-consuming reaction inside your transformer, a direct oxygen reading may look low and lead you to think your transformer is sealed. In reality, you could have both an air leak and a reaction that consumes the oxygen.
