Quick enquiry

Start with the essentials

Tell us the product, approximate rating and your e-mail. We will review the requirement and identify any missing information. For voltages, delivery country and project details, use the full configurator.

The classes that matter: F1 (fire behaviour: self-extinguishing, low emissions), E2 (resistance to condensation and pollution) and C2 (climate withstand down to −25 °C). We specify them according to your installation environment.

Enclosed version

IP-rated enclosure, ready to set down

The same unit can be supplied inside a metal enclosure: IP rating matched to the room, lockable MV cable box, shrouded LV busbar, thermal monitoring box and optional forced ventilation. This is the configuration chosen when the transformer shares a technical room with staff or other equipment.

What a cast-resin transformer is for

The windings are encapsulated in epoxy resin instead of being immersed in a liquid, and cooling is by air. The result: no flammable fluid, no risk of leak or pollution, reduced maintenance. It is the reference for indoor and sensitive locations, data centers, buildings open to the public (ERP), hospitals, basements, wherever fire safety takes priority.

Fire behaviour classes explained

F1, flame-retardant, self-extinguishing (the class required in most ERP and public buildings). E2, withstands severe condensation and pollution. C2, operable down to −25 °C. This F1·E2·C2 combination is the usual specification for demanding indoor environments.

Frequently asked

Is a dry-type noisier than an oil-immersed unit?

At equal rating, generally yes, the tank and oil of an immersed unit damp vibration. A well-designed, well-installed dry-type is nevertheless fully compatible with a tertiary environment; a noise level can be specified.

Does it need less maintenance?

Yes, no fluid to sample or top up. Periodic inspection and keeping the cooling paths clear are the essentials. This is part of why it is favoured for hard-to-access indoor installations.

Which fire class for a data center or ERP?

F1 is the flame-retardant class expected in public buildings and sensitive sites; the full F1·E2·C2 set covers condensation, pollution and cold. We confirm the class against your project.

For a usable quotation

Quantity, kVA, primary and secondary voltages, frequency, impedance, connection group, delivery country and postcode, required date, and any existing nameplate or one-line diagram.

Options and interfaces

State copper or aluminium windings, loss and sound limits, protection and monitoring, cable entry and space constraints. The final selection depends on the installation and approved design.

Supply and site work

The quotation identifies equipment, accessories, documents, delivery point and Incoterm. Unloading, lifting, installation, site cables, terminations and commissioning must be separately agreed.

15–18 weeks is an indicative target for selected distribution configurations after technical approval and the agreed payment. Availability, shipping and destination determine the written schedule. UK projects: send the DNO specification and 50 Hz network data. US projects: use the separate 60 Hz project page.
