Resimold for a modern world Minimizing space requirements and associated civil works costs is a major issue in most building projects today. Whether it is for a new city center office block, an expansion in industrial process capacity or a wind farm project, the compact design of Resimold provides a cost-effective solution. Applications Skyscrapers Airports Railway stations Wind farms Substations Commercial or public buildings Industrial factories Main characteristics Single and three-phase units Ratings up to 5 MVA, 36.2 kV Frequency: 50/60 Hz AN cooling for continuous indoor service (with AF and outdoor options) Normal or reduced losses Cost savings and safety are our priorities Encapsulated in epoxy resin under vacuum, Resimold dry type transformers ensure high performance, safety and cost savings. With no risk of explosion or release of toxic fumes, they comply with rigorous international safety standards. The metallic enclosures developed by Schneider Electric offer various levels of protection and provide maximum operator and equipment safety. This permits installation next to the load center, thus providing power-savings and reduced low voltage cable requirements. In addition, insurance costs are reduced. They dont require special storage construction and are maintenance-free. Their design is well adapted for shopping malls, office buildings, hospitals, airports, industrial plants and auxiliary services in power-supply plants. Resimold dry type transformers are the right choice when cost-savings and safety are required in a single product. Flame resistant and self-extinguishing, Resimold provides an effective solution for infrastructure projects and public buildings confronted by fire hazards.

HV winding The exclusive casting system and advanced technology used in our HV windings give Resimold transformers the reliability and operating characteristics needed in high-technology applications which demand maximum availability of electricity supply. The HV winding design is in disc format with a choice of aluminum strips or insulated aluminum wire (or copper for special projects) cast under vacuum in molds. This HV winding technology results in a compact single block. Casting system In the face of increasingly strict regulations with regard to the risk of fire and pollution, Schneider Electric practices a policy of permanent research on the behavior of insulating materials in fires. This has led to the exclusive Class F casting system (temperature of insulation system: 155C) developed in our laboratories. This system is comprised of three main components: Epoxy resin Hardener Mineral filler When polymerized, the epoxy resins associated with the hardener form a stable three-dimensional network. These systems have better properties than most plastics. Their use in transformers is justified owing to their: Excellent resistance to thermal aging Remarkable adherence to almost all known materials. Exceptional performance renders the windings resistant to many chemicals. Mechanical strength and a high-thermal conductivity are achieved by incorporating selected mineral fillers. This enables heat to be evacuated during use, improving fire resistance and dramatically reducing the quantity of combustible materials.

The solid insulation is obtained by vacuum casting in pre-heated molds, followed by a hardening period under controlled temperatures. After hardening by polymerization, the casting system becomes permanent. It offers excellent fire behavior and immediate self-extinction, well beyond the rated conditions of use. Resimold transformers can hence be qualified as truly flame-resistant and self-extinguishing.

Resiglas - the perfect solution for special applications Resiglas is flame resistant and self-extinguishing. It is designed for flexibility and sturdiness in order to meet special needs. It is suitable for industrial installations susceptible to fire hazards and for special applications such as wind farms and off-shore oil and gas platforms. The Resiglas range of dry type encapsulated resin transformers complies with all distribution transformer requirements, and is the perfect replacement for PCB transformers. Applications Off-shore oil and gas platforms Off-shore vessels Refining mills Paper & cellulose mills Steel & mining plants Car manufacturers Power supply plants Railways (trains, subway) Main characteristics Single and three-phase units Ratings up to 25 MVA, 36.2 kV Frequency: 50/60 Hz AN cooling for continuous indoor service (with AF and outdoor options) Normal or reduced losses Resiglas - flexibility and sturdiness for special requirements With all the intrinsic features of encapsulated epoxy resin dry transformers (flame-resistant, no toxic fumes, no partial discharges as per standard IEC 60076-11), Resiglas brings you even more. Thanks to the epoxy resin encapsulated coils reinforced with fiberglass, as well as immunity to environmental conditions and its fire-resistant categories E1/F1/C1, Resiglas technology presents considerable advantages over conventional dry transformers: Higher mechanical sturdiness since the encapsulating process consists of continuous fiberglass filaments Higher resistance to short-circuits and earthquake strains

Resiglas adapted to special applications Resiglas dry type transformers can be designed to meet special requirements, such as: Power distribution on off-shore oil platforms to supply heavy-duty machinery Generator static excitement (6-pulse rectifiers) Power supply to low and medium voltage drives for frequency inverters (6, 12, 18, 24, 36 pulses) Installation in outdoor locations and in rooms with aggressive conditions Power supply of non-linear loads with high harmonic contents (transformers with kfactor) Grounding systems Set-up transformers for generating group outputs Power supply for induction furnaces Electrical drive systems for railway lines HV winding The winding consists of round or rectangular copper or aluminum wires. It is wound continuously. The coil is formed by blocks, typically from 2 to 3 blocks of insulating material and winding, which allows cooling ducts to be formed in the mediumvoltage coil itself. These cooling ducts also allow a separation of the superimposed winding. Casting system The Resiglas technology consists of the encapsulation of the medium-voltage coils with epoxy resin and fiberglass without the need to use steel molds. The winding occurs over an expandable radius cylinder, which is adjusted according to design needs. The epoxy resin has the function of assuring the dielectric strength of the coil, while the fiberglass, in continuous strings, provides mechanical strength in the coils. Medium voltage drives Cost-savings, quality and system reliability With the technological improvements in medium voltage starters for heavy-duty motors, the Resiglas dry transformers are now equipped with intelligent solutions. One example is dephasing transformers, supplying drives with medium voltage.

Our dry transformers are capable of withstanding those electrical and mechanical strains resulting from harmonic currents and voltage transients caused by the rectifying system - while maintaining excellent performance levels. Our design flexibility allows for the adjustment of impedances, obtaining proper angular dephasing and voltage relationships, thus optimizing the drive operation with a minimum of harmonic distortion in the power supply mains. Resiglas can be used with rectifiers of 6,12,18,24 and 36 pulses, meaning that the dephasing obtained for each of the rectifier types allows for a significant reduction in the harmonics returning to the mains. All Schneider Electric transformers, when requested, can be specially designed for non-linear loads in order to minimize losses caused by harmonic currents and generate less heat to be dissipated. Examples of k-factor applicable to a few types of loads: Excitement of power generators: k = 6 or k=8 Frequency rectifiers / converters: k = 8 No breaks: k = 13 or k = 20
