Looking for a reliable, durable power solution for your industrial, commercial, or utility application? Oil immersed transformers are the undisputed backbone of medium-voltage power distribution worldwide.

 

As a leading manufacturer with over two decades of expertise, GNEE produces a comprehensive portfolio of high-performance oil immersed transformers spanning from compact 30kVA units to heavy-duty 2500kVA powerhouses.

 

This guide will walk you through our entire range, helping you select the perfect transformer for your specific voltage, load, and environmental requirements.

 

Why Choose Oil Immersed Transformers?

Oil immersed transformers use insulating mineral oil as both a coolant and dielectric medium.

 

This design offers unparalleled advantages:

  • Superior Cooling: Efficient heat dissipation allows for higher overload capacity and longer lifespan.
  • Proven Reliability: A century-old, robust technology with predictable maintenance needs.
  • High Dielectric Strength: Excellent insulation properties protect against internal arcs and surges.
  • Cost-Effectiveness: Lower initial and long-term costs compared to many dry-type alternatives for medium and high-power applications.

 

From small commercial buildings requiring a 30kVA unit to large industrial plants needing a 2500kVA behemoth, oil-cooled technology provides a dependable solution.

 

GNEE's Comprehensive Range: From 30kVA to 2500kVA

Our manufacturing capabilities cover the entire spectrum of standard power needs. Each capacity range is engineered for specific application domains:

  1. Small Power (30kVA - 100kVA): Ideal for small factories, workshops, pump stations, and residential complexes. Compact, efficient, and designed for easy installation.
  2. Medium Power (160kVA - 500kVA): The workhorse for commercial buildings, medium-sized plants, water treatment facilities, and school campuses. Balances power delivery with footprint.
  3. Large Power (630kVA - 1600kVA): Built for heavy industry, large manufacturing facilities, mining operations, and district substations. Features enhanced cooling and robustness.
  4. Extra Large Power (2000kVA - 2500kVA): Engineered for major infrastructure projects, utility substations, data center primary feeds, and large-scale industrial processing. Customizable to stringent grid codes.

800 - 1250 11/0.433, 22/0.433, 33/11 2200x1500x2500 5000 - 8000
1600 - 2500 22/0.433, 33/11, 35/10.5 2800x2000x3000+ 9000 - 15000+

 

Note: Exact specifications vary based on design (e.g., loss level: SBH15, SBH17), impedance, and accessory configuration. Consult our engineers for precise datasheets.

 

Core Features & Manufacturing Excellence Across All Sizes

 

Regardless of the kVA rating, every GNEE transformer is built with quality at its core:

  • Core & Windings: Built with high-grade, low-loss, grain-oriented silicon steel (CRGO) and Class C or H copper/aluminum windings for maximum efficiency and thermal stability.
  • Tank & Cooling: Sturdy corrugated or radiator-finned tanks provide optimal cooling surfaces. Options include hermetically sealed, free-breathing (with conservator), or sealed with gas cushion.
  • Protection & Monitoring: Standard fittings include pressure relief device, thermometer, and Buchholz relay (on larger units). We offer advanced options like remote monitoring systems.
  • Testing: Every unit undergoes full routine testing (ratio, polarity, winding resistance, insulation resistance, no-load/loss, and applied/induced voltage tests).

 

How to Select the Right kVA Rating for Your Project

Choosing the correct capacity is critical. Follow these steps:

  • Calculate Total Load: Sum the nameplate kVA or kW of all equipment, applying appropriate diversity and demand factors. Our team can assist with load calculation.
  • Consider Future Expansion: Add a 20-25% growth margin for future loads.
  • Review Starting Currents: Motors have high inrush currents; ensure the transformer can handle them without excessive voltage drop.
  • Match Voltage Levels: Confirm your incoming (HV) and required outgoing (LV) voltages.

For specialized applications like mining or offshore, we provide customized designs with enhanced protection.
