Replacing mineral-oil-filled reclosers with solid-dielectric or vacuum interrupter technology is essential for a safer, greener, and more sustainable power grid.
Mineral-oil-filled reclosers pose environmental and safety risks.
Siemens solid-dielectric and vacuum interrupters eliminate oil-related hazards.
Transitioning supports sustainability goals and reduces cleanup costs.
Legacy mineral-oil-filled reclosers are outdated and hazardous, causing oil leaks that require expensive environmental cleanup and soil remediation efforts. Switching to modern technology is critical to mitigate these risks.
Siemens provides solid-dielectric and vacuum interrupter reclosers, entirely eliminating oil from grid equipment. These modern solutions reduce environmental risks, maintenance complexity, and operating costs.
"Siemens is the right partner to accelerate the sustainability transformation. We offer our customers innovations to drive decarbonization, save resources and improve the lives of people around the world."
Transitioning away from mineral-oil reclosers aligns directly with corporate sustainability targets. With Siemens oil-free technology, utilities eliminate hazardous waste disposal and significantly decrease their environmental footprint.
Eliminating mineral oil dramatically reduces the risk of fires and environmental hazards, improving public safety and community relations. Siemens reclosers help utilities meet public safety expectations effectively.
Modern Siemens reclosers are designed as easy drop-in replacements, minimizing installation efforts. Reduced maintenance requirements and fewer operational interruptions further optimize cost savings.
Upgrading to Siemens solid-dielectric or vacuum interrupters marks the end of hazardous mineral-oil-filled reclosers, significantly enhancing environmental safety, reducing costs, and aligning with sustainability commitments.

1. Why are mineral-oil-filled reclosers being phased out?
Mineral-oil-filled reclosers present environmental hazards due to potential oil leaks, soil contamination, and fire risks. As utility companies focus on sustainability and safety, transitioning to oil-free technology is a proactive step to eliminate these liabilities.
2. What makes Siemens oil-free reclosers a better alternative?
Siemens solid-dielectric and vacuum interrupter reclosers remove oil from the equation entirely. This reduces environmental risk, simplifies maintenance, and supports long-term sustainability goals — all while improving system reliability and safety.
3. Are oil-free reclosers more expensive to install and maintain?
While the upfront investment may vary, Siemens oil-free reclosers are designed for easy integration as drop-in replacements. Over time, utilities see significant cost savings through reduced maintenance, fewer service interruptions, and no environmental cleanup expenses.
