Transformers
Submersible

Application:

Submersible and occasionally submersible transformers are used mainly in underground distribution
circuits that are susceptible to corrosive environments and temporary or extended flooding condi-
tions.

Occasionally submersible transformers are built to operate in an underground chamber or vault sub-
ject to potential flooding under a set of predetermined pressure and time conditions (24 hours under
a 40 cm water column measured from the upper part of the transformer).

Scope of the offer:


Designed and manufactured as radial or loop
types, depending on the customer's require-
ments.

Manufactured in compliance with NTC standards


(occasionally submersible transformers), ANSI
and EDC standards (submersible transformers)
and/or individual customer specifications.

Ratings (kVA):
Single Phase: 15 kVA to 500 kVA.
Three-phase: 30 kVA to 2500 kVA.

Basic Insulation Level:


From BIL 95 kV to BIL 150 kV

Typical construction mode:


Transformers typically consist of an active part made up of the core (magnetic circuit), the coil
(electric circuit) and the yoke clamp, which is determined in accordance with the type of
transformer, placed in a tank that provides the equipment with specific features, depending on its
intended application.

Coils:
Rectangular section with copper or aluminum windings.
Insulation: High-quality paper with epoxy resin coatings.

Cores:
Shell Type or Core Type, wound, set up in groups for easy assembly and disassembly without
loss of dimensional characteristics, guaranteeing low losses and excitation currents.

Materials: Cold-rolled grain-oriented silicon electrical steel sheet with insulating coating on
bothsides, low core loss and high permeability.

Yoke clamps:
Made of cold-rolled and hot-rolled steel, the clamp the core, with individual bolted caps enabling
easy disassembly for maintenance purposes.
They guarantee high resistance to short circuit mechanical stresses, low noise levels and low
excitation currents

Tanks:
Single-phase transformers: Cylindrical made from Cold Rolled and Hot Rolled Steel.
The TANKS are made of corrosion-resistant material. They are made of stainless steel and include
with a single coating of finishing paint for appearance.
Radiators: Depending on the voltage, a radiation system with vertical blades may be used,
enabling a more compact construction of the tank, in radiation panels with radiating elements.

Accessories and protection devices:


In order to ensure superior operational safety and reliability for underground applications, the
connection at the high voltage end includes elastomeric components, such as vertical bayonet sets,
canister fuses, long-shank bushing wells that can be immersed in oil, ON-OFF vertical loadbreak
switches, oil level gauges, and any additional accessories requested by the customer.
