SMALL POWER TRANSFORMERS

THROUGH 138 kV - The reliable and cost-effective transformer solution

CG Power Systems USA Inc (formerly Pauwels Transformers Inc) is a

proven and reliable manufacturer of pad-mounted, primary unit substa-
tion, pole/platform-mounted and secondary unit substation three-phase
transformers up to 2.5 MVA, with voltages up to 38 kV 250 kV BIL with
de-energized tap changer (DTC), and Small Power transformers up to
10 MVA ONAN rating or 14 MVA ONAF rating with voltages up to 69 kV
350 kV BIL with and without load tap changer (LTC).

CG Power Systems USA Inc Small Power:

Three-phase transformers up to 14 MVA ONAF

CG Power Systems USA Inc has drawn on its extensive experience in the supply
of three-phase Small Power transformers up to 10 MVA ONAN 69 kV to further
increase their current scope of supply up to 10 MVA ONAN rating or 14 MVA ONAF
rating with voltages up to 138 kV 650 kV BIL with and without load tap changer
(LTC).

Units already delivered have passed stringent performance tests, including short-
circuit test, and are currently in service in various locations. All Small Power
transformers are completely designed, manufactured and tested at the company’s
Washington, MO facility. All designs are in accordance with the latest ANSI, NEMA
and IEEE standards (or CSA and IEC standards upon request).

The Small Power product line includes pad-mounted, primary unit substation and
secondary unit substation transformers.

The Small Power concept

CG Power Systems USA Inc has a corporate vision of bringing reliable and in-
novative solutions to the marketplace. Our product development team has therefore
taken technology of proven value from other transformer applications and applied
these to Small Power transformer designs in order to bring to you added value.
Design features such as tie rod and flitch plate clamping structure, circular disc
winding, miter stacked core, LV and HV windings and cooling techniques have
been adapted, enabling us to manufacture our Small Power transformers cost-
effectively.

Design flexibility for minimal total ownership cost

The Small Power transformer can be customized to meet various specific require-
ments you may have, from low noise and reduced no-load loss, to lower load loss
and overload ability. What is more, we help you minimize your total ownership cost
by using sophisticated design programs, developed in-house, to determine the
best core and coil configuration in light of electrical, mechanical and economical
factors. Valuable add-ons such as load tap changers, HV/LV air terminal cable
boxes and/or throats including specific accessories and advanced controls and
monitoring devices are available.

 Reliability: maximum short-circuit strength

Depending on the voltage class, specific Small Power transformers technology is

used featuring either the obround or the circular coil design, to ensure maximum
short-circuit resistance strength. As a general rule the obround design is used for
Small Power transformers up to 3.75 MVA, while the circular coil design is used
for Small Power transformers 4 MVA and above. Copper conductor is always used
together with upgraded insulation paper. In conjunction with our winding design
configuration, we make use of a miter stacked core design. Our designs are thus
chosen to ensure you a high level of reliability.

Design features

The CG Power Systems Small Power transformer is available in a hermetically

sealed tank oil preservation version or in a positive pressure oil preservation
version. Heavy steel plates together with reinforced support members are used for
tank construction to withstand, if required, full vacuum conditions. Lifting, rolling
and jacking provision along with standard accessories and features are provided
in accordance to industry standards. If potential future load growth or unusual
prolonged ambient temperatures needs to be taken into account, the Small Power
transformer can be equipped with fan cooling, allowing the base rating to be
increased.

Testing and delivery

Every CG Power Systems Small Power transformer is subjected to rigid electri-

cal tests in accordance to the latest revision of ANSI, General Requirements –
C57.12.00 and Test Code – C57.12.90.
Optional design tests, CSA and IEC tests are available upon request.
Standardization of design and manufacturing allows CG Power Systems to guar-
antee quick deliveries. Our transformers are delivered with oil and assembled as
much as transportation restrictions and road conditions allow us to. With our Small
Power transformer, projects can be realized in a minimum of time – underlining
again: “CG Power Systems’ commitment to customer satisfaction”.
