This 50kVA 34.5kV 120/240V single phase oil immersed transformer is specially designed for single-phase low-power decentralized loads, different from three-phase transformers for large industrial centralized power supply. It can output dual 120V and 240V voltages at the same time, which perfectly matches North American household and small commercial power supply modes. It features simpler structure, lower no-load loss, lower operating noise and lower installation cost. For scattered rural households and small single-phase equipment loads, single-phase transformers have higher cost performance and more stable operation than three-phase models.
Q2: Can this 34.5kV single phase oil immersed transformer work stably in extreme outdoor weather?
Yes, this ANSI standard 50kVA oil immersed distribution transformer is fully optimized for harsh outdoor working conditions. The fully sealed oil tank completely isolates internal insulation components from external humid air, dust and corrosive substances, preventing insulation damp failure and oil deterioration. The high weather-resistant outer coating can resist long-term ultraviolet radiation, heavy rain erosion, low-temperature frost and high-temperature aging. With a wide operating temperature range of -40℃ to +45℃, it can operate continuously and stably in extreme cold and hot seasons, fully meeting long-term unattended outdoor power distribution requirements.
Q3: What daily maintenance work does a 34.5kV single-phase oil immersed transformer require?
This low-capacity oil immersed transformer has extremely low daily maintenance requirements, which is very suitable for remote unattended power supply points. Users only need to conduct regular visual inspection to check the oil tank for oil leakage and confirm the insulating oil level is within the standard range. Clean the dust and sundries on the radiator surface regularly to ensure unobstructed heat dissipation. Periodically test the insulation resistance of windings to avoid insulation aging failure. It is not necessary to replace insulating oil frequently under normal operating conditions. With simple standardized maintenance, the equipment service life can stably reach more than 20 years.
