2. Product Overview

2.1 Product Definition

Our transformer panel radiators are specialized core cooling components for oil-immersed power transformers and reactors. Through natural convection circulation of transformer oil or forced air cooling, they rapidly dissipate heat generated during transformer operation to the surrounding air, effectively controlling transformer temperature rise, ensuring long-term stable and safe operation, and extending equipment service life.

2.2 Product Classification

  • By mounting structure: Fixed radiator (PG series), Detachable radiator (PC series)
  • By cooling method: Natural Oil Natural Air (ONAN), Forced Air (ONAF/OFAF)
  • By environment: Standard type, Tropical humid type (TH), Tropical arid type (TA)
  • By material process: Cold-rolled steel radiator, Hot-dip galvanized anti-corrosion type, Epoxy spray type, Aluminum alloy radiator

2.3 Application Scope

Suitable for all types of oil-immersed distribution transformers, power transformers, rectifier transformers, traction transformers, wind/solar dedicated transformers, and industrial specialty transformers β€” meeting requirements for indoor, outdoor, coastal, high humidity, extreme cold, industrial corrosion, and other complex environments.
