Transformers and Reactors
Transformers
Transformers are at the centre of all power systems as distribution and power supply transformers but also for special applications such as voltage regulation and phase-shifting.
The main types of transformer are described below:
- Rectifier Transformers
- Transformers for motor-drives
- Transformers for Electro-winning
- Transformers for Traction Substations
- Inter-phase Transformnrs
- Phase-shifting Transformer
- Triplen Transformers
- Tap-changing Transformers
Reactors
Reactors or “chokes” are an essential part of all power and power-electronic systems. They fulfil a number of functions and require various technologies to optimally meet the diverse application needs.
The main categories of reactor are described below:
- VAR Compensation and Shunt Reactors
- Current-limiting Reactors
- De-tuning and Damping Reactors
- AC Reators for Notch and THD reduction
- DC Reators
- Smoothing Chokes
- Inverter di/dt Chokes
Technologies
Thycon manufactures these transformers and chokes using a variety of technologies including cast resin, liquid-immersed and dry types.
