Data Sheet 1.12-1/1 1)

Metal Tank Test Transformer and

Transformer Cascade,
Type PEO
Description
Metal tank transformers have an earthed tank (very space saving in the HV laboratory) and a bushing to air (on
request a bushing to a SF6-insulated, completely metal-enclosed HV test system). They are provided for indoor
(type PEO) or outdoor (type FPEO) operation and well suited for heavy climatic conditions.
Metal tank transformers are designed for higher power and for continuous operation. For short-time operation
higher currents than specified in this Data Sheet can be supplied. The exciter winding is divided into two parts
which can be connected in series or in parallel for an improved voltage adjustment and power adaptation. The
low internal partial discharge recommends the application of metal tank transformers not only for test line
operation, wet and pollution testing (which requires higher currents), but also for PD testing.
For the generation of voltages in the range of megavolts, transformers can be cascaded (see figure 4).

The transformers are designed with low core induction to guarantee a sine-wave form of the output voltage with
lower than 5 % of harmonic distortion in the test system. To prevent increasing of harmonics due to resonant
phenomena the systems may be provided with harmonic filters.
The high-voltage windings are of layer type and they are completely shielded to achieve a high-electric strength
against transient overvoltages. The windings are short-circuit proof. For more details ask HIGHVOLT directly.
Special design and accessories on request:
design for short-time operation with higher currents
position of the bushing different from standard
rollers for transportation on floor (smaller types) or rails (larger types) or air cushions (larger types)
base frame as a oil collecting trough if demanded for emergency cases (smaller types)

2)

The type designation PEO characterizes the indoor type. All types can be supplied in outdoor design with the designation
FPEO instead of PEO. The first figure is the rated test power, the second the rated voltage.
3)
The letter "t" means the transformer is equipped with a transfer winding for cascades.
4)
The transformers are designed for continuous operation (24h per day), higher currents for short-time operation can be
generated. Related details on request.
5)
The adaptation to different voltages on request.
