TRANSFORMERS & TRANS SWITCHES
Our flameproof transformers have been developed for use in hazardous areas (Group I - Category M2) in underground mining operations. They are installed for energy distribution of electrical equipment in IT AC systems. Transformer tanks of various sizes can be equipped with cores of varying nominal outputs.
On the high voltage and low voltage side of the transformer, junction boxes, switchgear from the Endis PBE-Series or a high-voltage cell type PHR can be mounted as desired by the customer. The TransSwitch is a transformer and siwtchgear in a single modular unit that is not much larger than a single transformer alone. The low-laying TransSwitch requires only insignificantly more space than a conventional transformer alone and therefore is a space saving alternative to the predesribed transformers.
Becker Mining Systems' cutting edge, patent pending technology will keep you up and running, making down-time a thing of the past. The DuraTrans™ transformer invention is intended to adress the challenges specific to the mining enviroments. These challenges are met by producing a wound transformer coil which results in a mechanically robust construction preventing winding displacement and sealing out all environment contaminants.
