Cast Resin Transformers are the popular power transformer choice for high-service reliability.
Hanley Energy’s cast resin transformers are dry-type transformers (CEI EN 60076-11). The magnetic circuit and windings are not immersed in an insulating liquid but are cast with an epoxy resin mixture. These special transformersare finding an ever-increasing scope of application for their high-service reliability.
Cast resin transformers are a popular choice for use in commercial, industrial and residential sites. These power tranformers require practically no maintenance and have a much lower environmental impact than traditional oil-immersed transformers. Auto-extinguishing and other safety features make it the obvious choice for indoor applications and other areas with high fire risk.
Casting process
The casting process minimises the deposit of pollution and corrosive particles as well as being strong and waterproof. The active parts are cast with a resin mixture of quartz flour and epoxy resin after being secured to a mould and preheated under vacuum.
Power Transformer Windings

Insulation
The windings are very resistant to condensation and pollution ensured by the use of pre-impregnated Class F insulating materials – making the winding solid and strong but at the same time free to move with a certain degree of flexibility.
Magnetic Core

Cooling
Proper cooling is ensured through circulation of natural air, flowing through the transformers surfaces with a natural flow from the bottom to the top. In the transformer room there should be openings at the bottom for the entry of cooling air and at the opposite side of the top for the exit of the thermal loaded air.
