Product structure

The structure of amorphous alloy Dry type transformers is similar to that of traditional Dry type transformers, but because the core material is made of amorphous alloy, there is a special optimization in the design of core components, the specific structure is as follows:

Ⅰ.Iron core

1.Material: The core is iron-based amorphous alloy strip (only 20-30μm thick), with extremely high permeability and very low iron loss (no-load loss is 50%-70% lower than silicon sheet core), which is the core source of its energy efficiency.

2.Structure: It adopts winding molding (amorphous alloy strip material is brittle and cannot be stacked like silicon steel sheets), continuously wound into a closed magnetic circuit by special equipment, and the outside is tied and fixed with a non-weft belt to reduce vibration and noise.

3.Protective treatment: The surface of the core is coated with insulating paint or epoxy resin to enhance the insulation performance and prevent oxidation of the amorphous alloy strip.

Ⅱ.Winding

1.Materials: mostly high-purity electrolytic copper (excellent conductivity), aluminum can be used in some scenarios (to reduce costs), and the surface of the wire is coated with an insulating layer (such as polyimide film).

2.Winding method: high-voltage windings are usually segmented and layered cylindrical type, using epoxy resin vacuum casting molding (enhanced insulation and mechanical strength); Low-voltage windings are mostly foil structures (large ampacity, good heat dissipation), isolated by DMD insulation material between layers, and equipped with cooling air ducts in the axial direction.

3.Cooperate with the core: The winding set is outside the amorphous alloy core, and the insulation gap is kept between the two to avoid the damage of the brittle material of the core by mechanical stress.

Ⅲ.Insulation system

1.Main insulation: epoxy resin as the core (high temperature resistance, strong insulation performance), with glass fiber mesh cloth (to enhance structural strength) and insulating paper (for interlayer and end insulation).

2.Process: The winding is cured by vacuum casting to ensure that the insulation material is tightly combined with the conductor, improving the ability to resist short circuits and insulation reliability.

Ⅳ.Cooling system

1.Natural air cooling (AN): Suitable for small and medium-sized volumes, heat dissipation through shell heat sinks and air convection, simple structure, maintenance-free.

2.Forced Air Cooling (AF): Large-capacity models are equipped with cooling fans that automatically start when the temperature is too high, enhancing heat dissipation efficiency and improving overload capacity.

Ⅴ.Auxiliary parts

1.Temperature control system: built-in temperature sensor (buried in the winding) and intelligent controller, real-time temperature monitoring, with over-temperature alarm, trip protection function, can link the fan start and stop.

2.Housing: The protection level is mostly IP20 (indoor) or IP54 (outdoor), and the material is cold-rolled steel or stainless steel, which plays a role in dustproof, moisture-proof and safety protection.

3.Terminal Blocks: Copper or copper-aluminum transition terminals that support side outlet or ejector wires, ensuring reliable connection with external lines.

The most notable difference is the amorphous alloy core’s winding structure (replacing silicon steel sheet stacking) – it directly reduces no-load loss and improves energy efficiency, but the brittle core is more sensitive to vibration/impact, requiring enhanced fixation and protection in design.

FAQS

Amorphous Alloy Dry-type Transformers SCBH15/SCBH17/SCBH19 Series FAQs

You may want to know the following questions and answers when purchasing.

Ⅰ.Basic Concepts

Oil-immersed transformers, dry-type transformers, pre-installed substations, high and low voltage switchgear and supporting power equipment

Supplement: Covers 10kV-500kV full voltage level, maximum capacity 500MVA

It must be determined based on the nominal voltage, grounding mode, and maximum fault current of the system!

For example, a 10kV neutral point is grounded by an arc suppression coil, and the matching capacity is suitable according to 1.2 – 1.5 times the total capacitance current of the system. You only need to provide the grid parameters (voltage, load, grounding method, etc.), and our technical team will choose the model for free to accurately adapt to your system.

①Safety performance: dry type has no fire risk and can be close to densely populated areas; The oil-immersed type requires fire prevention measures, and leakage may pollute the environment.

②Applicable scenarios: dry type is used indoor, medium and low voltage (≤ 35kV), power ≤ 30MVA; The oil-immersed type is used outdoor, high voltage (≥ 110kV), power ≥ 30MVA.

③Maintenance cost: dry type only needs dust removal and winding inspection (1-2 years); The oil-immersed type requires regular oil testing, oil filtration/oil change (3-5 years).

④Environmental performance: dry type pollution-free, RoHS compliant; The oil-immersed type requires a leak-proof design, and synthetic ester oil is degradable but the cost is high.

⑤Energy efficiency performance: dry full load efficiency of 98%-99%, high temperature needs to be reduced capacity; The oil-immersed type has a full load efficiency of 99%+ and is suitable for high-temperature environments.

⑥Service life: dry type 20-30 years (H grade can reach 40 years); Oil-immersed type 30-50 years (when the oil quality is good).

 

Selection suggestions

Choose dry type: indoor installation, high safety requirements, and easy maintenance scenarios

 

Choose oil-immersed type: high-capacity, high-pressure, outdoor installation scenarios

①35kV is suitable for large-capacity, high-voltage grid access scenarios above 2000kVA (such as regional substations, new energy booster stations), with higher insulation requirements (the withstand voltage value is about 2 times that of 10kV), and the structure is more complex;

②10kV is suitable for terminal power distribution below 2500kVA (such as factories and commercial centers), and the cost and maintenance are lower. The selection should give priority to matching the voltage and capacity requirements of the upper power grid.

The core difference between the two lies in energy efficiency and cost characteristics, which are recommended to be selected according to actual application needs:

①Amorphous Alloy Transformer (SCBH)

No-load loss is 60-70% lower than traditional silicon steel transformers, with great long-term energy savings and strong environmental benefits.

Higher initial cost (core materials cost 30-50% more).

Best for long idle periods, stable loads, and electricity cost-sensitive settings: data centers, commercial buildings, hospitals.

②Epoxy resin transformer (SCB).

Low initial cost, mature silicon steel technology, better short-term value.

High mechanical strength, strong short-circuit resistance, low noise, and adapts well to complex environments.

Ideal for standard industrial power distribution, high short-circuit risk, or stability-critical scenarios: factories, general power systems.

Selection suggestions:

If the focus is on long-term energy saving, long operating time, and stable load, choose SCBH;

If you are concerned about initial cost, short-circuit resistance and wide adaptability, choose SCB.

①Commercial complex: Dry-type transformer (AN cooling), high fire protection requirements, easy maintenance

②Offshore wind power booster station: oil-immersed transformer (synthetic ester oil), high power demand, anti-corrosion design

③Metro power distribution: dry-type transformer (H-class insulation), low-smoke halogen-free, moisture-proof and shockproof

④Oil platform: oil-immersed transformer (Ex d explosion-proof), explosion-proof certification, salt spray resistant

Notes:

①Dry-type transformer derating of 1% per 1°C at ambient temperature > 40°C

②The oil-immersed type needs to be equipped with an oil pool (capacity ≥ 100% oil volume) or a nitrogen fire extinguishing system

Large-scale projects can adopt the combination scheme of “dry change + oil change”

①SCBH15: Suitable for projects with limited budgets but looking to save energy

basic energy-saving type, cost-effective balance, suitable for conventional commercial buildings and residential area power distribution.

②SCBH17: Excellent performance in terms of price/performance ratio

Lower loss, insulation upgraded to Class H, longer life, suitable for long-term operation scenarios such as hospitals and schools.

③SCBH19: The most energy-efficient, suitable for occasions with high electricity costs

Ultra-efficient, with a local discharge of < 3pC, it is suitable for data centers and projects with extreme energy efficiency requirements, with the most significant long-term electricity cost savings.

Normally, due to the significant electricity saving benefits, the investment difference can be recovered through electricity cost savings within 2-3 years.

Amorphous materials are brittle, but under our patented protection structure, the product has sufficient mechanical strength.

As long as the transport and installation are carried out according to the instructions, long-term reliable operation is guaranteed.
