High Temperature Resistant Oil Immersed Power Transformers

2024-07-23
Hot summer, we have ushered in the hottest period of the year.
 
One is a massive power supply, one is thousands of households, to ensure the safety and stability of energy and power supply, to meet the peak of summer, power supply insurance, monitoring power grid equipment failure is the key to power grid operation.

High Temperature Resistant Challenge

In various industrial applications, maintaining consistent power supply under high ambient temperatures is a significant challenge. Traditional oil-immersed transformers often struggle in these conditions, operating at only 81% load under an ambient temperature of 40°C. This limitation poses a risk of high-temperature tripping, potentially leading to power outages and operational inefficiencies. High-temperature-resistant products, on the other hand, can operate at 100% full load under the same conditions, ensuring the safety and reliability of power supply during periods of high demand, particularly in the summer months.

High Temperature Transformer Solution

High-temperature resistant liquid-filled transformers provide a robust solution for industries requiring consistent power under high-temperature conditions. These transformers are designed to operate at full load without the risk of tripping, ensuring continuous power supply. The use of high-temperature resistant liquid enhances their performance, providing superior oxidation resistance and a slower aging rate compared to conventional mineral oil. Additionally, the coils are insulated with NOMEX insulation paper, which offers stable mechanical and electrical performance under high temperatures and has a long lifespan.

The benefits of the distribution transformer

1. Low Maintenance Cost

Conventional oil-immersed transformers typically use mineral oil, which requires testing and filtration every two to three years. In comparison, high-temperature resistant liquids exhibit superior oxidation resistance and age more slowly, necessitating testing only once every ten years. The coils in these transformers are insulated with unique NOMEX® insulation paper, providing more stable mechanical and electrical performance under high temperatures. This insulation material has a long lifespan, even at elevated temperatures.

2. Energy-Saving and Environmental Protection

High-temperature resistant transformers are designed with sustainability in mind. The materials used can be recycled and reused at the end of the transformer's service life, aligning with environmental protection goals. NOMEX insulation paper is biodegradable, and the high temperature-resistant oil operates well below its temperature resistance level, making it recyclable after proper treatment. The treated waste can be decomposed by soil microorganisms without toxicity, preventing long-term environmental pollution.

3. Safety and Reliability

For industries such as cement, steel, coal, and papermaking, high-temperature-resistant products are designed to handle fluctuating and unstable loads. The insulation system in these transformers remains intact under these conditions, ensuring safe and reliable long-term operation.

4. FR3 oil

Using natural ester insulating oil, specially designed to cope with the heat, with excellent high heat resistance, fire prevention ability, for the safe operation of power equipment escort.
