SF-M-2500/3000
YAWEI
The SF-M-2500/3000kVA 4.16kV 0.6kV 0.347kV Dyn1 Oil Immersed Distribution Transformer is engineered for medium-voltage power distribution where dependable voltage conversion, thermal stability, and continuous-duty performance are essential. With a primary voltage of 4.16kV and a secondary system of 0.6kV/0.347kV, the transformer is designed for large industrial facilities, commercial power systems, utility distribution networks, and other high-capacity electrical installations.
The transformer uses an optimized magnetic circuit with cold-rolled grain-oriented electrical steel to control core losses and improve operating efficiency. The winding arrangement is designed to withstand normal load conditions as well as the mechanical forces associated with short-circuit events. High-quality insulating materials and transformer oil provide electrical insulation between the active components while also assisting with heat transfer.
An ONAN (Oil Natural Air Natural) cooling arrangement can be adopted for continuous operation without relying on complicated auxiliary cooling equipment. The Dyn1 vector group provides a defined phase relationship between the high- and low-voltage systems and allows the transformer to be integrated into suitable three-phase distribution networks.
The transformer can be configured according to project requirements, including voltage ratio, tap range, winding material, cooling arrangement, protection devices, monitoring equipment, enclosure configuration, and applicable electrical standards.
The magnetic core is manufactured from high-grade grain-oriented electrical steel with carefully controlled joints and flux density. This design helps limit no-load losses and operating temperature while maintaining stable excitation characteristics.
The core and winding assembly are mechanically secured to improve resistance against transportation forces, electromagnetic stress, and long-term vibration.
Designed for 2500kVA to 3000kVA class applications, the transformer incorporates a robust winding structure suitable for substantial continuous loads. The winding arrangement can be engineered using copper or aluminum conductors according to the required electrical and economic specifications.
The insulation system is coordinated with the rated voltage and operating environment to provide reliable dielectric strength throughout the service life of the transformer.
The ONAN cooling system transfers heat generated by the core and windings through natural oil circulation and releases it through the tank and radiating surfaces.
This passive cooling principle minimizes the number of auxiliary components and provides a straightforward solution for installations where dependable continuous operation is required.
The transformer is designed for applications requiring conversion from a 4.16kV medium-voltage supply to a 600V/347V low-voltage system.
This voltage combination is commonly applicable to large electrical installations where medium-voltage incoming power needs to be distributed to low-voltage switchgear, motors, process equipment, building services, and other downstream loads.
The transformer ratio and tap arrangement can be adjusted to meet project-specific voltage requirements.
The Dyn1 connection group provides a defined phase displacement between the primary and secondary windings and incorporates a neutral point on the low-voltage side.
This configuration can be selected for suitable three-phase distribution systems where the downstream network requires a neutral connection. Final vector-group selection should always be coordinated with the project single-line diagram and system protection requirements.
Depending on the project specification, the transformer can be supplied with a range of monitoring and protection accessories, such as:
Oil temperature indicator
Winding temperature indicator
Oil level gauge
Pressure relief device
Buchholz relay where applicable
Drain and oil sampling valves
Grounding terminals
Surge protection
Overcurrent protection
Short-circuit protection
Remote monitoring interfaces
Optional digital transformer monitoring systems
The final accessory configuration can be selected according to the installation environment and protection scheme.
The oil tank and external structure are designed for reliable operation in demanding installation environments. Protective coatings and suitable sealing arrangements can be selected according to climate, pollution level, corrosion conditions, and outdoor installation requirements.
The transformer can be supplied as an outdoor unit with suitable lifting provisions, grounding arrangements, terminal configurations, and maintenance access.
Transformer specifications can be customized according to the customer's electrical system rather than being limited to a fixed standard configuration.
Available engineering options may include:
Rated capacity
Primary and secondary voltage
Tap range
Vector group
Impedance voltage
Copper or aluminum windings
Cooling method
Frequency
Insulation level
Temperature-rise requirements
Protection and monitoring equipment
Terminal arrangement
Enclosure and installation configuration
This flexibility allows the transformer to be integrated into new substations as well as existing electrical distribution systems.

The unit can be used in medium-voltage distribution systems and customer substations where a 4.16kV supply must be converted to a lower utilization voltage.
It can be configured to meet the electrical characteristics, installation conditions, protection requirements, and operating practices of different distribution projects.
The transformer can be considered for data centers and other facilities with concentrated electrical demand, subject to the project's voltage, redundancy, harmonic, protection, and cooling requirements.
Its high-capacity configuration allows it to serve large low-voltage distribution systems while supporting integration with switchgear and downstream power management equipment.
The transformer can also be incorporated into solar power, energy storage, microgrid, and distributed-energy installations where medium-voltage and low-voltage systems need to be interconnected.
The exact transformer configuration should be selected according to the project's power flow, grid connection, harmonics, protection coordination, and operating requirements.

The following information provides general guidance for transportation, installation, commissioning, operation, and maintenance of the SF-M-2500/3000kVA 4.16kV 0.6kV 0.347kV Dyn1 Oil Immersed Distribution Transformer.
All work involving high-voltage equipment must be performed by appropriately qualified personnel. The manufacturer's approved drawings, technical specifications, factory test reports, applicable standards, and local electrical regulations take precedence over this general guide.
Use appropriate lifting and transportation equipment according to the transformer weight and dimensions. Keep the transformer in the specified transportation position and prevent severe impact, tilting, vibration, or uncontrolled movement.
