Dry Type Transformers

GTB Transformers Pvt Ltd offers Dry Type Transformers. An intrinsic byproduct of the transformation process is heat, specifically, the “I2R” (I=Current, R=Resistance) heating that occurs when current runs through a conductive wire. Heat breaks down transformer composition materials and insulation, resulting in less efficiency and shorter service life. Transformer heat is best controlled by the oil filled transformers, which conducts the heat away from the heat-producing parts while protecting other internal transformer workings. A dry type transformer will typically incorporate a design with greater internal clearances to allow for better heat dissipation. No fireproofing, oil catch basins or venting of toxic gasses are required and the transformer can be close to the load, minimizing secondary line losses. But a dry type transformer also reduces maintenance with no need to replace transformer oil while avoiding the contaminant and composition checks necessary for proper oil insulation and cooling.
