An advanced grade of Reactor Transformers are offered by Urja Techniques (INDIA) Pvt. Ltd. These electrical devices have become the most essential part of the the modern energy systems. This compact device is generally applied for the compensation of reactive power in long high voltage transmission lines. These have the air cored series where the shunt reactor of up to 2 MVA, 33Kv can be directly connected to the tertiary binding of 3-winding transformer or the power line. Primary winding gets divided into two independent fed sets of phase coils wounds in opposite direction. These get arranged on symmetrical legs of the core element and get separated by a common yoke. On the other hand the secondary short-circuited reactor winding is reduced to at least one close loop member with loop portions separated by the common yoke. The single, poly phase apparatus has at least one primary coil per set that includes a controllable device in circuit relation there with to enable control of one primary coil relative to the other, either in current magnitude or in current phase shift. The controllable device being either a silicon control rectifier or transistor.
Engineering for EnduranceThis transformer features a CRGO steel core, high dielectric strength (75 kV/minute), and Class A/B/F insulation to withstand demanding industrial environments. Designed for both dynamic and thermal short-circuit compatibility as per IEC standards, it guarantees robust, uninterrupted operation for decades.
Reliable Protection and MonitoringEquipped with essential protection devices-Buchholz relay, pressure relief valve, oil level and temperature indicators-this transformer assures early warning and real-time monitoring to protect against electrical and mechanical faults. Surface finishing provides corrosion resistance even in high-humidity or corrosive settings.
Performance and CustomizationWith an impedance voltage range of 6% to 18% and an operating noise level below 65 dB, this transformer is designed for minimal energy loss (excitation loss <0.1% and load loss <1.5%). It supports custom configurations in voltage, coil structure, and cooling to meet unique operational requirements across power plants and substations.
FAQ's of Heavy Reactor Transformer:
Q: How is the Heavy Reactor Transformer protected against electrical faults?
A: This transformer is equipped with advanced protective devices including a Buchholz relay, pressure relief valve, oil level indicator, and temperature indicator. These features ensure early detection of faults and effective mitigation, enhancing operational safety and extending service life.
Q: What insulation classes are available, and how are they selected?
A: The transformer can be provided with Insulation Class A, B, or F, depending on application requirements. Selection depends on operational temperatures and environmental factors, with higher classes offering improved thermal performance for demanding installations.
Q: Where can this transformer be installed and operated?
A: Designed for heavy industrial applications, substations, and power plants, it supports floor mounting with bi-directional rolling wheels. The transformer operates efficiently in ambient humidity up to 95% (non-condensing) and at altitudes up to 1000 meters (higher on request).
Q: When does the transformer require maintenance, and what is its typical service life?
A: With regular preventive maintenance, the transformer is engineered for a service life of up to 30 years. Maintenance intervals depend on site conditions, but routine inspection of oil, protection relays, and cooling systems is recommended to ensure optimal performance.
Q: What benefits does the use of CRGO steel core provide?
A: A CRGO (Cold Rolled Grain Oriented) steel core increases magnetic flux efficiency, reduces core losses, and optimizes performance. This increases overall efficiency, reduces operational costs, and prolongs equipment lifespan.
Q: How is the voltage adjusted or regulated in this transformer?
A: The transformer features an optional tap changer (on-load or off-load) that allows for voltage regulation and adjustment during operation or maintenance, providing flexibility for various network conditions.
Q: What type of cooling oil is used and how does it contribute to transformer performance?
A: The cooling can be provided by mineral oil or environmentally friendly oil, compliant with IEC 60296. Efficient oil cooling systems (ONAN/ONAF) ensure thermal stability, maintain insulation properties, and support reliable operation in diverse ambient conditions.
