01 General
1.1 Project Description
The 630 kVA opening winding dry type transformer was delivered to South Africa in 2024, the rated power of the transformer is 630 kVA. The primary voltage of the transformer is 11 kV and secondary voltage is 0.55 kV. We designed a 125 ° C temperature rise and H-class insulation, which can suffer 180 ° C max temperature, strong overload capacity, strong short-circuit resistance, high safety performance.
general electric dry type transformers produced by SCOTECH have low office discharge, low noise, strong overload capacity, strong short-circuit resistance, flame retardant, non-combustible and non-explosive characteristics, and high safety performance. Using multiple technologies, effectively suppress harmonic content, filter harmonics,and prolong motor life. It can effectively prevent moisture, salt spray, corrosion, weather resistance, long service life. Widely used in factory workshops, high-rise buildings, commercial centers, airports, docks, subways, oil platforms and other places of power transmission and transformation systems. Our 630kVA dry type transformer was designed with advanced technology and adopts high quality material and components which result in reliable quality and long operation time.

02 Manufacturing
2.1 Core
| The core adopts high quality and high permeability silicon steel sheet, multi-step process, bass noise reduction, low no-load loss. The design of the iron core adopts the “E-I” type or “ring” structure. The E-I type can effectively reduce the flux leakage and eddy current loss by superimposing the E-shaped and I-shaped silicon steel sheets together to form a closed-loop magnetic circuit. The annular core further reduces energy loss through the annular design and provides a better flux path. Each sheet of silicon steel is insulated, usually with insulating paint or coated with insulating paper, which reduces the generation of eddy currents. The lamination process of the iron core superimposes the sheets into layers to ensure the permeability of the iron core while minimizing the hysteresis loss of the iron core. | ![]() |
2.2 Winding
![]() | The winding adopts open and non-enveloped structure, which has good heat dissipation effect and strong overload capacity. The unique winding design can effectively reduce the electric field strength between the windings, thus reducing the risk of insulation breakdown. |
2.3 Final Assembly
| Winding placement: the primary winding and secondary winding are installed on the iron core according to the design requirements. Winding connection: Connect the winding terminal according to the electrical drawing to ensure the connection is stable. Insulation materials: Place the insulation materials (such as insulating paper and insulating oil) according to the design requirements to ensure the integrity of the insulation system. Insulation test: insulation resistance test is performed to ensure that the insulation system complies with technical specifications. Fans or coolers: Install the transformer’s fans or coolers to ensure that the cooling system can effectively dissipate heat. Shell fixation: Install the shell or guard of the transformer in place to ensure that the shell is sealed with the main body of the transformer. Cable connection: Connect the high and low voltage cables of the transformer to ensure that the electrical connection is strong and meets safety standards. Grounding: Perform grounding treatment to ensure that the grounding system of the transformer is good. | ![]() |
