Dry Type Transformers in Chicago
Dry type transformers are air-cooled with fans that can dissipate the heat from the cooling ducts. These transformers don’t have a liquid or coolant and are typically larger than oil-filled transformers.
We use superior-grade materials to make our dry type transformers, providing you with durable designs that supply sufficient power to your facility. Our dry type transformers are equipped with a high-voltage power source on one side and a low-voltage breaker on the opposite end. Each of our new dry types has a five-year warranty against workmanship defects.
