Dry-type Transformers
Dry-type Transformers
Siemens Energy dry-type transformers provide customers with maintenance-free transformer with minimal cleaning and inspections requirements.
Key characteristics:
- Maximum power-to-volume ratio
- Highly efficient cooling system
- Handles peak loads up to five times the rating
Rated power: up to 50 MVA
Voltage: Up to 52 kV (secondary voltages typically 415 V, but can be 690 V to 33 kV)
Application areas include anywhere bulk-oil can’t be tolerated due to fire or environmental concerns such as:
- within buildings/basements
- within wind turbines
- on offshore platforms or ships
- mining or refineries
- on the residential curb near housing
With the Siemens Energy GEAFOL series of cast resin dry-type transformers, efficiency is just as import as the quality! Siemens Energy GEAFOL series dry transformers deliver value over the whole-of-life because Siemens:
- induce twice the rated voltage to ensure the units are free from partial discharges
- type-test in harsh environments with high and low temperatures to ensure the design is moisture-resistant and tropicalised
- carefully consider noise design, with quality build processes being followed to ensure low noise levels of delivered product
- ensure that over 95% of the components are economical and feasible to recycle
