160 kVA Pad-Mounted Distribution Transformer is prepared for ground-level utility and industrial distribution. This series description presents the application, construction, protection, and specification details in finished product copy.
Key Advantages
For ground-level utility and industrial distribution, key Advantages is treated as a practical design and selection point rather than generic catalog wording.
Designed for urban and light industrial networks, this 160 kVA pad-mounted transformer features low-loss copper or aluminum windings and stable performance under 10–35 kV primary voltage. Ideal for long-term reliable operation.
ZBW Series Prefabricated Box-Type Substation Overview
For ground-level utility and industrial distribution, zBW Series Prefabricated Box-Type Substation Overview is treated as a practical design and selection point rather than generic catalog wording.
The ZBW series prefabricated box-type substation (commonly referred to as the American-style box-type transformer) features a "product"-shaped structure. Its transformer and high/low-voltage equipment are closely integrated into a single unit. Among its design highlights, three sides of the transformer are exposed to the air-ensuring excellent heat dissipation-and the transformer can be separated from the enclosures of the high and low-voltage equipment, facilitating easy maintenance.
The 813 series oil-immersed transformer is equipped with a chip-type oil tank, requires no oil cushion, and adopts a fully enclosed design. Components such as high-voltage and low-voltage bushings, tap changers, oil level indicators, pressure relief valves, and oil drain valves are all installed on the end plate of the high-pressure chamber. This layout ensures reasonable component positioning, making it convenient for observation and operation.
The high-pressure chamber and low-pressure chamber are separated by steel plates. While the high-pressure chamber, low-pressure chamber, and transformer are relatively independent, they collectively form a complete, integrated box. This design results in a compact structure, small volume, and lightweight build. Additionally, power distribution switchgear is installed on both the high-voltage and low-voltage sides of the substation.
Model Description
For ground-level utility and industrial distribution, model Description is treated as a practical design and selection point rather than generic catalog wording.
Taking the ZBW series as an example, the model is represented as ZBW - 12/0.4 - □ - □ - □. The first part "ZBW" indicates the prefabricated substation. "12/0.4" represents the rated voltage levels, with 12kV for the high - voltage side and 0.4kV for the low - voltage side. The subsequent boxes respectively denote the high - voltage measurement of rated voltage (KV), low - voltage measurement of rated voltage (KV), and rated capacity of the transformer (KVA).
Use Environment
For ground-level utility and industrial distribution, use Environment is treated as a practical design and selection point rather than generic catalog wording.
The pad-mounted transformer must operate under specific environmental conditions to ensure stable performance and safe operation, with requirements integrated from both data sources as follows.
Cooling Condition Adopts air self-cooling mode, relying on natural air circulation to dissipate heat generated during transformer operation, which is suitable for its structural design and common application scenarios.
Wind speed: Equivalent to 34m/s (not more than 700 Pa).
Temperature Requirement The outdoor ambient temperature shall not be higher than 40℃ and not lower than -45℃. The monthly average temperature shall not exceed 30℃, and the annual average temperature shall not exceed 20℃. This limits the long-term temperature load on the transformer to avoid performance degradation caused by extreme temperature accumulation.
Altitude Requirement The installation altitude shall not exceed 1000m.
Humidity Requirement At a temperature of 25℃, the maximum relative humidity of the air shall not exceed 95%, and the daily average relative humidity shall not exceed 90%.
Product Characteristics
For ground-level utility and industrial distribution, product Characteristics is treated as a practical design and selection point rather than generic catalog wording.
Small size, compact structure, and easy installation: It can be used for both ring network and terminal applications, with reliable personal safety protection.
Low loss, low noise, and superior performance.
Anti-theft cabinet design: The cabinet adopts an anti-theft structure.
Low temperature rise and strong overload capacity.
Product Structure Features
For ground-level utility and industrial distribution, product Structure Features is treated as a practical design and selection point rather than generic catalog wording.
Transformer and Chambers: The pad-mounted transformer uses the 813 series oil-immersed transformer with a chip-type oil tank (no oil cushion, fully enclosed). High/low-pressure bushings, tap changers, oil level indicators, pressure release valves, oil release valves, etc., are mounted on the high-pressure chamber end plate for easy observation and operation. Its high/low-pressure chambers are separated by steel plates (relatively independent) and integrated into a complete box.
Components: It is equipped with plug - in fuses, pressure gauges, pressure relief valves, oil level gauges, oil thermometers, load switches, high - voltage cable joints, off - circuit tap changers, ground points, drain valves, and low - voltage switch cabinets, etc.
Load Switch: It is an oil - immersed, three - phase linkage switch with a spring operating mechanism. It can be operated with load, and its closing speed has nothing to do with the operating force. There are types such as two - station, four - station T type, and four - T position V type to choose from.
