In terms of usage purpose, core type, and cooling type, transformers can basically be examined in 3 main groups. According to cooling type, they are divided into two categories: <strong>dry type and oil type<\/strong>. Transformers designed with cooling systems that dissipate generated heat via air circulation are called cooled transformers. So, what is a dry type transformer?<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vekmar.com.tr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/trafo-eltas-720x480-1.jpg\" width=\"611\" height=\"407\" \/><\/p>\n<h4><strong>What is a Dry Type Transformer?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Dry type transformers are among the cooled transformer types. Transformers whose magnetic core and windings are not protected in an insulating liquid are called dry type transformers. Dry type transformers are completely dry and do not contain any oil. Their windings are insulated against external factors and coated with glass fiber reinforced epoxy resin. Dry type transformers operate either in atmospheric conditions or in gas environments.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5256\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5256\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vekmar.com.tr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/12\/electric-trafo-720x480-1.jpg\" alt=\"Kuru tip trafolar g\u00fcvenilir olmas\u0131 nedeni ile \u00f6zellikle yo\u011fun insan kullan\u0131m\u0131n\u0131n oldu\u011fu tesislerde tercih edilir.\" width=\"587\" height=\"391\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5256\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h4><strong>Where are Dry Type Transformers Used?<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Dry type transformers are widely used in places with high human traffic due to their safety advantages, such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Hospitals, schools, shopping malls, theaters, residential buildings<\/li>\n<li>Pump stations and underground transformer systems<\/li>\n<li>Railways and dams<\/li>\n<li>Industrial facilities and energy plants<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><strong>Features of Dry Type Transformers<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>The main features of dry type transformers are as follows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>High and low voltage windings are manufactured in a closed environment and produced under vacuum using resin casting technology.<\/li>\n<li>Epoxy resin is used for winding insulation.
