Outdoor Cast-Resin Dry-Type Transformer (IP54 / IP65)

The outdoor cast-resin dry-type transformer represents an advanced engineering leap, breaking the boundary that dry-type units are only for indoor use. By pairing a high-strength epoxy resin or Nomex/VPI insulated core with a heavily sealed, weather-proof enclosure (IP54/IP65), it confidently operates in direct outdoor environments. It completely eliminates the fire, explosion, and oil-leak risks of traditional outdoor oil-immersed transformers. It is the ultimate solution for urban street networks, renewable energy solar/wind stations, coastal facilities, and heavy industrial parks demanding zero-maintenance outdoor power.

Core Parameters:

• Protection Level: IP54 (Standard Outdoor) / IP65 (Extreme Weather/Coastal).

• Structure: Solid Resin Cast + Anti-Corrosion Enclosure (Rain, Dust, UV Resistant).

• Voltage Configuration: 10kV / 20kV / 35kV to 0.4kV.

1-安全.png

Extreme Weather Protection

Equipped with specialized IP54 or IP65 outer enclosures. Thoroughly blocks rain, snow, dense industrial dust, and coastal salt spray, enabling direct outdoor installation.

31-防火.png

Zero Oil Fire Hazard

Unlike standard outdoor oil transformers, the solid resin core completely eliminates oil leakage and explosion risks, ensuring peak safety for urban streets and forests.

21-绝缘.png

Superior Dielectric Strength

The vacuum-cast epoxy resin (or Nomex VPI) delivers a partial discharge of ≤10pC. Extremely resistant to lightning impulse voltages (up to 75kV for 10kV networks).

11-冷却.png

Anti-Condensation Design

The outdoor enclosure features specialized ventilation labyrinths and internal anti-condensation heaters, preventing moisture build-up during severe temperature drops.

16-高效.png

High Energy Efficiency

Meets Tier 1 or Tier 2 efficiency norms. Optimized copper/aluminum windings ensure outstanding energy conversion efficiency even under heavy outdoor load fluctuations.

14-维护.png

Zero Routine Maintenance

By abandoning insulating oil, operators save thousands on periodic oil testing, filtration, and environmental cleanup, resulting in an exceptionally low total cost of ownership.

iconFAQ


Operating a dry-type transformer inside a high-protection (IP54/IP65) outdoor enclosure requires advanced thermal and moisture management:

1) Thermal Dissipation (Cooling): Unlike indoor IP20 mesh enclosures, IP54 enclosures restrict direct airflow. To solve this, the enclosures are designed with specialized heat-exchange labyrinth louvers or active forced-air exhaust fans on the roof that prevent rain/dust entry while vigorously pumping out the hot air generated by the resin coils.

2) Condensation Prevention: In outdoor environments, rapid temperature drops at night can cause moisture in the trapped air to condense into water droplets on the high-voltage coils, posing an arcing risk. To combat this, the outdoor enclosure is equipped with an automatic anti-condensation heater. Controlled by a humiture (humidity + temperature) sensor, the heater activates automatically when ambient humidity spikes or temperature drops, keeping the internal air dry and the insulation safe.
