A dry type transformer is cooled by air, not liquid. The windings are either vacuum cast in epoxy resin or vacuum pressure impregnated (VPI), and insulation is a solid system with a defined thermal class.

The result is a transformer with no oil, no bund, no oil fire load and no risk of liquid leakage. That is why dry type is the default inside occupied buildings, basements, tunnels, ships, offshore platforms and anywhere maintenance access is difficult.

Manufacturing, Testing and Standards

Every unit is built under documented process control and subjected to routine tests before dispatch: winding resistance, voltage ratio and vector group, impedance voltage and load loss, no-load loss and current, applied and induced voltage dielectric tests, and functional checks of accessories. Type tests — including lightning impulse, temperature rise and short-circuit withstand — are available for new designs and project requirements. See our testing and quality control pages.

Frequently Asked Questions

Cast resin windings are fully encapsulated in epoxy under vacuum, giving excellent moisture and short-circuit resistance. VPI windings are impregnated with resin and baked, giving good performance at a lower cost. Cast resin is generally preferred for harsh or humid environments.
Yes, in a suitable ventilated enclosure with adequate IP rating and protection from direct water ingress and solar gain. Many projects still prefer oil immersed outdoors.
Forced air cooling (AF) with fans increases the permissible load for defined periods. The winding temperature relay protects the insulation by alarming and then tripping.
Dry type units tend to be slightly more audible because there is no oil to damp the core noise. Low-noise designs reduce flux density and add anti-vibration mounting. Hebei Youge Electrical Equipment Co., Ltd. for measured dB(A) values.
