Case Study
YUANGUANG’s SFZ-25000/63-35 is a utility-grade 25 MVA (25,000 kVA) OLTC power transformer engineered for primary substations, power plants and demanding EPC projects. Designed around a high-permeability CRGO core with precise step-lap joints and epoxy-bonded laminations, the SFZ-25000 delivers low no-load loss and suppressed audible noise while providing the mechanical rigidity and thermal performance required for heavy duty operation.
The transformer features an interleaved-continuous HV winding and a zig-zag oil-guide structure that forces oil circulation into otherwise stagnant zones — reducing hotspot rise and extending insulation life. A motor-driven 21-tap OLTC (±10 × 1.5% tap range) enables accurate on-load voltage regulation for grid stability under variable loading. The SFZ series is vacuum-dried and VPI-impregnated to guarantee complete varnish penetration and excellent moisture resistance — a decisive benefit in coastal or humid climates.
Performance targets were validated in factory acceptance tests: no-load loss 37.5 kW, load loss 140 kW (total losses 177.5 kW), short-circuit impedance 11.8% and PD / noise control consistent with utility requirements. The unit complies with the IEC60076 family and ships with full FAT documentation, calibration certificates and certified CoG and lifting drawings for safe logistics and rapid site installation

Key advantages
High capacity with flexible cooling — ONAF rating 25,000 kVA (ONAN 16,600 kVA) for robust overload performance.
Low losses — lower OPEX — optimization yields significantly reduced no-load losses vs generic designs.
Low partial discharge & low noise — design and manufacturing controls keep PD and acoustic emissions within strict limits.
Superior thermal control — zig-zag oil guide and interleaved winding reduce hotspot and improve thermal uniformity.
Robust OLTC — 21-tap motorized OLTC for precise on-load voltage regulation.
Strong mechanical design — epoxy bonded core, bracing plates and impregnation to withstand transport and short-circuit forces.
Turnkey deliverables — FAT pack, traceability certificates, CoG & certified lifting plan, easy commissioning.
