The cores of conventional transformers consist of stacks of laminations that are made from silicon steel with an almost uniform crystalline structure (CRGO). In transformers with amorphous cores, a ribbon of steel is wound forming the core. The big benefit of amorphous metal core transformers is that amorphous steel has lower hysteresis losses. Simply put this means that less energy is wasted in magnetising and demagnetising it during each cycle of the supply current. The infrared pictures (above) illustrate this: The AMT core (left) shows a lot less heat than the CRGO core (right).

Advantage and Applications
Up to 75% energy saving over conventional silicone steel (CRGO)
Reduced carbon dioxide emissions
Reduction in fossil fuel consumption
Reduced magnetising current
Reduced magnetising current

FAQ

Listed below are answers to our most commonly asked questions. Don't see your question?Contact our customer service team. We would be glad to assist you.

Can a transformer be used outdoors?

Yes, many transformers are designed for outdoor use, but they require waterproofing, dustproofing, and protective enclosures to withstand rain, dust, and temperature changes.

Is transformer noise normal?

A slight humming sound during operation is normal, caused by magnetization of the core and windings. However, if the noise is unusually loud or irregular, inspection is required.

What causes a transformer to overheat?

Common causes of transformer overheating include overloading, inadequate cooling, winding short circuits, or insulation aging. Prolonged overheating can shorten lifespan or cause failure.

How often should a transformer be maintained?

It is generally recommended to have a full inspection once a year, including insulation, cables, cooling systems, and oil quality tests to ensure safety and efficiency.

Can a transformer run continuously?

Yes, transformers are designed for long-term stable operation. As long as they run within rated voltage, load, and temperature limits, they can operate safely and continuously.

What is the main function of a transformer?

The main function of a transformer is to change voltage levels. It can step up voltage for long-distance transmission or step down voltage for safe use in equipment and households.
