Benefits of an EdM transformer<br />
The EdM high-quality cast resin transformer is the ideal<br />
choice for all needs.<br />
Using technical, state-of-the-art solutions and materials<br />
of the highest quality, EdM cast resin transformers can<br />
give you many advantages: total safety for the customer,<br />
guaranteed by the total absence of combustible products;<br />
maximum environmental protection, thanks to the absence<br />
of polluting and inflammable insulating liquids;<br />
energy saving, with the exclusive “reduced loss” range.<br />
Unlike the oil solution, a cast resin transformer does not<br />
require additional building structures, thus guaranteeing<br />
the maximum practicality and flexibility straight from the<br />
beginning of the installation.<br />
Furthermore, no cooling fluids are used, hence minimizing<br />
maintenance costs.<br />
REDUCTION OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT<br />
– low fire hazard<br />
– no risk of insulating fluid losses into the<br />
environment<br />
– possibility of retrieving end-of-life materials<br />
– availability of a “reduced loss” range (energy<br />
saving)<br />
INSTALLATION SIMPLIFICATION<br />
– reduction of the overall dimensions<br />
– reduction of expensive construction<br />
achievements, i.e. oil recovery sump, (required<br />
according to DpR 547/55 for oil transformers<br />
with power equal to or higher than 630 KVA),<br />
absence of fire-resistant separation barriers (not<br />
required for class F1 cast resin transformers)<br />
– possibility of installation inside buildings,<br />
including places attended by people<br />
– immediate integration with Zucchini busbars<br />
FLEXIBILITY DURING USAGE<br />
– it is possible to increase the delivered power<br />
through the application of special ventilation<br />
systems, to be used when dealing with<br />
particular operating situations (temporary<br />
overloads or high environmental temperatures)<br />
or when it is necessary to have a temporary<br />
reserve capacity in case of emergency<br />
(nonfunctional transformer)<br />
– no maintenance is required besides the<br />
standard periodic checks.<br />
ENERGY SAVING<br />
By using EdM “reduced loss” cast<br />
resin transformers, end-users<br />
will not only be able to reduce<br />
management costs, typical of<br />
cast resin transformers, but also<br />
save money on energy costs,<br />
thus protecting the environment<br />
and taking action against energy<br />
waste.<br />
EdM has developed a simple<br />
mathematical model (available on<br />
the website) which - depending on<br />
the transformer selected, energy<br />
usage profile of the customer and<br />
on the energy costs - will produce<br />
a curve of costs whereby it is<br />
possible to point out the attainable<br />
cost and energy saving.<br />
For instance, comparing a 1000<br />
kVA (cl. 24kV) “reduced loss”<br />
transformer with a “distribution”<br />
transformer, after 20 years of<br />
operation the energy saving will<br />
be 12000 KWh (less environmental<br />
impact) and the cost effectiveness<br />
for the customer will be about<br />
28000€*.<br />
For more details, see section<br />
Energy Saving on our website.<br />
* the calculation was based on 3% of the cost of<br />
money and considering an energy cost of 0.19 €/kWh.<br />
