Technical Specifications

Nameplate data for actual delivered units is provided below. Specific short-circuit impedance, rated currents, and weight will be confirmed on the order datasheet.

Manufacturing Process — From Winding to Dispatch

The quality of a cast resin dry-type transformer is determined in manufacturing — particularly at the LV foil winding, epoxy vacuum casting, and curing stages. The following images document actual production steps at Zhongxin General’s Sichuan facility for the 1000 kVA unit.

Low-Voltage Foil Winding

Low-voltage foil winding process of 1000 kVA dry-type transformer — copper foil and output copper busbar argon-arc welding detail Zhongxin General factory
Low-voltage foil winding stage: copper foil and LV output copper busbar are welded together with argon-arc protection, achieving low welding resistance and high current-carrying reliability for the rated LV current.

The foil winding machine winds the low-voltage coil of the 1000 kVA dry-type transformer. Precision-controlled winding ensures consistent layer thickness and accurate ampere-turn balance across all three phases.

The low-voltage winding adopts a foil winding structure, solving the axial helical angle problem inherent in conventional wire winding and achieving better ampere-turn balance. High-quality copper foil is wound by automatic foil winding machine. The LV output copper busbars are connected to the foil winding using argon-protected welding, ensuring minimal contact resistance. DMD epoxy resin pre-impregnated cloth is used between winding layers for interlayer insulation and bonding.

Epoxy Vacuum Casting and Curing

Several sets of LV windings, freshly wound and prepared for moulding, staged for entry into the hot-air curing oven for integral cure forming. The vacuum casting process eliminates partial discharge and ensures uniform dielectric strength throughout the winding.

The high-voltage winding is vacuum-cast with filled epoxy resin. This process removes air from the winding structure before resin injection, virtually eliminating partial discharge and ensuring uniform dielectric strength throughout the coil. Glass fiber mesh plates reinforce the inner and outer walls of the HV winding, enhancing mechanical strength and short-circuit withstand capability. After casting, all coils enter a controlled hot-air curing oven where integral forming takes place.

HV Winding After Demoulding

Following curing, HV epoxy cast windings are demoulded and surface-finished. The clean, void-free resin encapsulation gives SCB-series cast resin transformers their core operating characteristics: flame-retardant, fire-proof, maintenance-free, pollution-free, and capable of operating reliably in humid or contaminated environments.

Close-up of a PT100 platinum resistance temperature sensor at its installation position embedded in the low-voltage winding. The sensors feed the intelligent temperature controller providing three-phase scanning, over-temperature alarm, and automatic fan control.

PT100 platinum resistance sensors are embedded in the low-voltage coil during manufacturing. These sensors feed into an intelligent temperature controller providing:

  • Sequential detection and display of three-phase winding temperatures with fault self-diagnosis
  • Hot-spot phase winding temperature display
  • Over-temperature alarm output (adjustable setpoint)
  • Over-temperature trip output (adjustable setpoint)
  • Automatic or timed fan start/stop (Black Box function)

Optional functions include analog current output, RS485 serial interface for centralized monitoring and SCADA integration, additional iron core or ambient temperature detection points, and additional active output contacts.

Cooling fans are cross-flow top-blowing type, featuring low noise, high wind pressure, and compact aesthetics. Under ANAF forced-air cooling conditions, the transformer can handle continuous overload with superior thermal safety margin.

The 1000 kVA capacity sits in our most active production range alongside the 630–1250 kVA segment, with mature tooling, established quality protocols, and available capacity for volume orders.For a reference on large-scale power infrastructure that included multiple dry-type transformers across this capacity range, see Zhongxin General’s 16,730 kVA intelligent power system delivered for Xinjin District People’s Hospital, which featured 12 transformers from 500 kVA to 2,000 kVA in a single project.

Typical Applications

The 1000 kVA cast resin dry-type transformer is one of the most widely deployed medium-capacity distribution transformers across commercial and industrial sectors. Its flame-retardant, oil-free, maintenance-free characteristics make it the preferred choice for indoor and urban installations where fire safety and environmental compliance are mandatory.

Typical installations include commercial buildings and retail facilities (shopping centres, high-rise office and residential towers, hotels, airports), industrial parks and manufacturing facilities, chemical plants and process industry, new energy projects (solar PV step-up stations, wind farm collection systems), data centres and IT facilities where zero-oil-spill risk is a requirement, rail transit power distribution, and healthcare facilities. Its EU-compliant Grade 1 efficiency option also makes it a regular choice for European import projects.
