Smaller, lighter transformer for US Navy ships

SINGLE-CORE THREE-PHASE POWER TRANSFORMER

A new, compact, militarized single-core three-phase transformer for use within US Navy shipboard power distribution systems has been introduced by Diversified Technologies.

 

The transformer is a 60 Hz, 440 Vrms, 150 kVA, militarized, 1:1 galvanic isolation transformer that efficiently transforms electrical energy to more convenient voltages at point-of-load. Reducing size, weight and power losses (SWaP), they easily fit through hatches with a front face of less than 57.5 in, have a reduced footprint and satisfy the touch-temperature requirement of less than an 80°C rise.

 

Potential platforms include retrofit updates of Naval ships such as DDG-51 and future platforms. Transformers can be bulkhead or deck mounted, horizontally or vertically, measure less than 95 by 71 by 63 in, weigh under 1500 lbs and meet all Navy test and qualification standards including shock, vibration, airborne noise levels and enclosure design.
