Application
Power Transformers: Ideal for distribution and power transformer cores; features extremely low core loss and high magnetic induction in the rolling direction and very high permeability, enabling high efficiency.
Energy Efficient Industrial Transformer: Medium to large industrial transformers with low energy loss and excellent magnetics.
Reactors and Chokes: Well suited for laminated cores under continuous operation in inductors and reactors where magnetic stability and low iron loss are required.
Renewable Energy Transformers: Cores for wind turbines, solar inverters and other renewable energy applications that enable stable operation and are energy-saving.
Electrical Distribution Equipment: Switchgear, voltage regulators and industrial control transformers are all positively influenced by their high stacking coefficient and excellent magnetic stability.
