HARMONIC MITIGATING TRANSFORMERS

Harmonic Mitigating Transformers are used for reducing harmonic currents. Treating harmonics has many benefits, including:

  • Lower maintenance and replacement costs as a result of reducing the amount of heat harmonics can generate.
  • Operation of the transformer at a lower temperature due to less heat, eliminating overheating and excessive operating temperatures.
  • Lower cooling cost in the area where the transformer is installed as a result of reduced operating temperatures
  • Uses the full capacity of the transformer. There is no need to de-rate the transformer below the nameplate capacity because of the reduction in heat.

Features, Benefits and Functions

  • 480 volts delta primary and 208Y/120 volts secondary standard rating. Additional voltage combinations are also available.
  • Electrostatic shield for attenuation of high frequency noise.
  • 150°C, 115°C, or 80°C temperature rise
  • Copper windings and terminals as standard. Aluminum is optional.
  • Meet or exceed NEMA TP-1 energy efficiency levels.
  • 200% rated neutral.
  • 220°C, insulation system.
  • Performance validated by a nationally recognized independent testing facility.
  • Eliminate circulating harmonic currents in primary windings of transformers.
  • Low zero sequence impedance and zero sequence reactance.
  • Enclosures are NEMA 2 drip-proof. The addition of optional weather shields makes the enclosure NEMA 3R rainproof.
  • Harmonic cancellation via electromagnetic flux cancellation. Filters, capacitors or other such devices are not used.
  • Variety of phase-shift options available to treat specific harmonics in a system.
  • Helps meet IEEE 519 harmonic limits.
