Dry type transformer

Dry type transformer

Dry type transformer is an electrical energy conversion device that uses air as the cooling medium and solid insulation materials such as epoxy resin to encapsulate the winding. It achieves the rise and fall of AC voltage through the principle of electromagnetic induction. With its core characteristics of oil-free, fireproof and explosion-proof, and environmentally friendly and pollution-free, it has become the preferred distribution equipment for scenarios with high requirements for safety and environmental protection.

Its core structure consists of iron core, epoxy resin encapsulated winding, cooling fan, temperature controller, wiring terminals and other components. The voltage level mainly covers the medium and low voltage fields of 35kV and below, and the capacity can be flexibly customized from a few kVA to hundreds of MVA. It is widely used in indoor power distribution, precision equipment power supply and other scenarios, and is a key equipment in modern power distribution systems that combines safety and environmental protection.

Features

1. Fire and explosion prevention, outstanding safety performance:

adopting oil-free design, the winding is vacuum sealed with epoxy resin, and does not use flammable and explosive transformer oil. There is no oil leakage or fire hazard during operation, and even if there is a fault, there will be no explosion. It can be directly installed indoors, in densely populated areas or areas with extremely high fire prevention requirements, and its safety far exceeds that of oil immersed transformers.

2. Environmentally friendly and pollution-free, suitable for harsh scenarios:

no oil volatilization, no harmful gas emissions, no pollution to soil and water sources, low noise level (usually ≤ 65dB), in line with modern environmental standards, suitable for office buildings, hospitals, schools, data centers and other places with strict environmental and noise control, without the need for additional protective facilities such as oil storage pits.

3. Compact size and easy installation:

With a compact structure and light weight, compared to oil immersed transformers of the same capacity, the volume is reduced by 30% -50%, without occupying too much installation space. It can be directly installed in indoor distribution rooms and equipment rooms, with simple transportation and installation processes, greatly reducing installation costs and site requirements.

4. Easy operation and high reliability:

The winding is tightly packaged with good sealing, which can effectively resist external environmental influences such as moisture, dust, and corrosive gases, reducing the risk of insulation aging; Daily maintenance only requires regular cleaning of dust, inspection of temperature control system and cooling fan, without the need for oil quality testing, oil change and other operations, with low operation and maintenance costs and strong long-term reliability.

5. Accurate temperature control and adaptability to load fluctuations:

Equipped with intelligent temperature controllers and forced cooling fans, the winding temperature can be monitored in real time. When the temperature reaches the set value, the fan will automatically start to dissipate heat, which can quickly adapt to fluctuations in electrical load, avoid affecting equipment life due to high temperature rise, and adapt to unstable load scenarios such as precision equipment and data centers.

    FAQs

    Is it necessary to regularly replace insulation materials during the daily operation of dry-type transformers?

    No need to regularly replace insulation materials. The dry-type transformer winding is vacuum sealed with epoxy resin, which has stable insulation performance and long service life. Under normal operation, the insulation material can be used with the equipment throughout the entire process (about 20-25 years); Regularly check whether there is dust accumulation or damage on the surface of the winding. If any abnormalities such as damage or aging occur, it is necessary to contact professional personnel for maintenance and replacement in a timely manner.

    What are the core differences between dry-type transformers and oil immersed transformers?

    The core difference lies in the insulation and heat dissipation medium: dry-type windings are encapsulated with solid insulation materials such as epoxy resin, and air is used as the heat dissipation medium, which is fire-resistant, explosion-proof, environmentally friendly, and pollution-free. It is suitable for indoor and densely populated scenarios, but its capacity and heat dissipation ability are relatively limited; Oil immersed type uses transformer oil as insulation and heat dissipation medium, with high heat dissipation efficiency and larger capacity, suitable for outdoor and high load scenarios, but requires proper sealing protection, which poses certain fire hazards.

    What could be the possible cause of high temperature during the operation of dry-type transformers?

    There are four common reasons: ① Overloading, operating beyond the rated capacity of the transformer; ② Cooling fan malfunction (such as stalling, insufficient wind speed), poor heat dissipation; ③ Poor ventilation and excessive dust accumulation around the equipment affect heat dissipation; ④ The insulation aging or short circuit of the winding leads to increased losses and sudden temperature rise. When the temperature is too high, the load should be immediately reduced, and the ventilation and cooling systems should be checked. If the problem is not resolved, the machine should be stopped to troubleshoot.

    What are the requirements for the installation environment when installing dry-type transformers?

    The installation environment should meet three requirements: ① For outdoor installation, choose an area with high terrain, dry and ventilated conditions, no standing water, and away from flammable and explosive materials, and take measures to prevent rain, dust, and collision; ② Indoor installation should ensure good ventilation in the computer room, reserve sufficient maintenance space (usually no less than 1.5 meters on both sides), and avoid moisture and dust accumulation; ③ The installation area should be kept away from strong electromagnetic interference and vibration sources to avoid affecting the stability of equipment operation.

    What is the usual warranty period for dry-type transformers? What after-sales guarantees are provided during the warranty period?

    The regular product warranty period is 1-2 years (can be extended according to the contract agreement); During the warranty period, if the equipment malfunctions due to its own quality problems (non-human damage, force majeure), our company will provide free repair and replacement services for faulty parts, and arrange professional personnel to come to inspect and debug to ensure that the equipment quickly resumes operation; In addition, free technical consultation and operation guidance services are also provided.
