Listing all the possible applications and use of power transformers wouldn’t be feasible in the length of this page. Nevertheless it would be nice to remind you of some of the most current applications of these transformers such as; Power distribution, Voltage Matching and Transformation, Load Matching, System Isolation, Power Quality Improvement, Supply and Minimization of Harmful Harmonic Generating Circuitry and Loads.

The list goes on and on but this is the main area of interest of these transformers
Due to the inherent construction features in general dry-type transformer are mainly fire retardant devices. In case our transformers are unfortunately caught in a fire, they contain less then 2% in weight of flamable materials, thus safety is no concern with these transformers. On the other hand the open construction of these transformers and the surrounding enclosures make it easy to safely and reliably upgrade power capabilities of these transformers without extra hustle by simply adding fans. Finally yet importantly the absence of a cooling fluid makes the maintenance of these transformers all so easy. In all dry-type transformers are the safest solution for our modern application and they offer the most cost effective solution for your business.
It is generally true that for the same power and voltage rating, a dry-type transformer might be initially more expensive then its oil counter part, but with time, its maintenance free properties, efficiency, safety and consequently savings in the civil and electrical structures to be supplied make the dry-type transformer the cheaper device and most suited for most application. You will find a comparison of this cost in the comparison graph.

Nevertheless it is worthy to note that if you need detailed and in depth study of your current system we will be glad to refer you to our technical department for more details.
Bars in orange represent costs associated with oil cooled transformers, while bars in red represent air cooled transformers. Other then capital cost all associated costs are lower for dry-type transformers. These costs are from left to right Civil Works: including all safety accessories and fire extinguishers Electric Works: Including extra cables and circuitry for oil cooled transformers that on the contrary of their air cooled counter parts cannot be placed close to the load Maintenance: Including oil filling and regular maintenance such as valve and gaskets checking and if necessary replacements Capitalization of Losses: Including core losses, copper losses and transmission losses. All these costs are based in a defined study period with the cost of the dry-type transformer as the base.
