High-voltage SSTV transformer in paper-oil and SF6 insulation from 72.5 kV to 550 kV

Application

An auxiliary transformer in paper-oil or gas insulation (with SF6 gas) is a very versatile device combining the strengths of both power and distribution transformers. It is designed to provide auxiliary substation power supply, power for telecommunications and monitoring facilities, or as a temporary power supply. Additionally, these transformers can be used to energize remote areas by drawing power directly from high-voltage lines. They are available in voltage ranging from 72.5 kV up to 550 kV.

High-voltage SSTV transformer – Design

Our station service voltage transformers (SSTV) are manufactured in both paper-oil and gas-insulated versions. While the overall design concept is similar, the insulation medium differs depending on the model. A hermetically sealed metal tank contains the magnetic core surrounded by primary and secondary windings.

Paper-oil insulated transformers use layers of paper impregnated with environmentally safe, PCB-free oil. Metal bellows are incorporated to allow monitoring and adjustment of the oil level. In the gas-insulated version, electrical insulation is provided by sulfur hexafluoride (SF6). A side-mounted inlet valve enables monitoring of pressure and possible gas leakage.

These transformers are able to provide low-voltage power supply to remote areas by directly transforming the electricity from high-voltage lines.
