1. How About The Specification Of 1000kva Transformer?

As mentioned above, 1000kva transformer is a regular capacity, but there are different manifestations.
First of all, buying a transformer is like buying clothes, and confirming what kind of transformer you want, Daelim Transformer has various standards for reference, IEC/CSA/ANSI/IEEE/AS/NZ...etc.

Second, technical parameters need to be determined. For example, capacity, high and low voltage, load, winding, etc. are the key factors that affect the price.

Third, the configuration needs to be determined. Generally, transformer suppliers will provide standard accessories (such as three meters and one valve for three-phase pad mounted transformers in ANSI/IEEE standards, including pressure relief valve, pressure vacuum gauge, oil level gauge, and oil temperature).

However, some special accessories require extra costs, such as sudden pressure relays, multi-contact oil thermometers, etc.
In this way, the basic price of a transformer is available.

However, if the loss required by the 1000kva transformer is lower than the standard, the price of copper winding, large capacity, and special configuration will be very high.

If you want to know how much the transformer will cost for your project, please consult the professional sales engineer of Daelim Team to learn more!

2. Can A 1000KVA Pad Mounted Transformer Be Used For The Bitcoin Mining?

After China banned Bitcoin mining, most of the Bitcoin mining centers moved to North America.
Since Bitcoin mining requires huge power supply, there will be a large number of transformers used in crypto mining.
The answer is Yes!

1000kva pad mounted transformer is a regular capacity for bitcoin mining.

In addition, Beijing Daelim has also exported many other capacities for use in crypto mines, including 3750kva, 3000kva, 2600kva, 2550kva, 2500kva, 2000kva, 1500kva, 1250kva.

Bitcoin's commonly used high pressures are 34.5/19.92, 24.94/14.4, 23.9/13.8, 23, 22.86/13.2, 13.8/8, 13.2/7.6, 12.47/7.2, 12/6.93, 8.3/4.8, 6.9, 4.8, 4.16/ 2.4 and 2.4KV etc.;
Commonly used low voltages are 415/240V, 480/277V, 600/347V, etc.

3. Can The Transformer Be Produced In Accordance With The DOE Efficiency Value Standard?

DOE which means Department of Energy is the efficiency value requirement for transformers in ANSI/IEEE standards.
Daelim Team has rich experience in American transformer production, Daelim's answer is Yes! We can fully match your requirements!

DOE Std stipulates that the capacity of 2500kva and below needs to be strictly implemented in accordance with DOE standards.

Whether you are reading this article, a purchasing manager, a power company, or an end-user of bitcoin mining, one thing you cannot ignore is the price.

Generally speaking, the transformer price according to DOE Std will be 30% higher than the regular efficiency price. This also means that transformers with the same specifications, transformers below ANSI/IEEE Std 2500kva will be at least 30% more expensive than CSA std.

So, how can the price of a 2500kva transformer be reduced according to ANSI/IEEE standards?
Daelim Team has come up with a solution for you.

4. How About The Difference Between Three Phase Pad Mounted Transformer And Three Phase Distribution Transformer?

4.1 They are based on different standards. Pad-Mounted Transformer is designed and manufactured according to ANSI/IEEE or CSA Std, and Three-phase distribution is designed and manufactured according to IEC standard.

4.2 Due to the different standards, although the capacity is the same, the appearance is very different. As shown below.

4.3 The market is also very different. Pad Mounted Transformer is mainly used in the Americas, while three-phase distribution transformers are used in Asia and Africa.

4.4 The uses are also very different. Pad Mounted Transformer can be used not only in conventional electricity, oil and other industries, but also in bitcoin mines, while three-phase distribution transformers are different.

5. How To Choose The 1000kva Transformer’s Supplier?

In supply chain management, the key link is supplier management.

There are many factors affecting international business, and the risks are also greater. Therefore, choosing one or a few suitable suppliers is beneficial and not harmful.

When choosing a transformer supplier, there are a few things to consider:
5.1. The supplier's design and production capacity and level of customization. Beijing Daelim has a professional transformer factory, which can be designed and produced according to ANSI/IEEE, CSA, IEC, AS/NZ and other standards, with a very high level of customization.

5.2. The supplier's transformer export experience. Daelim Transformer has been exporting power equipment for 16 years, and transformers entered the North American market four years ago.

6. How About The Weight Of 1 Unit 1000kva Pad Mounted Transformer?

How-About-The-Weight-Of-1-Unit-1000kva-Pad-Mounted-Transformer

For The 1000 kva 4160 to 480 transformer, the total weight will be 7,385 lbs, including 290 gallon oil and 1,929 lbs.

7. How To Pack And Ship The 1000kva Pad Mounted Transformer?

Beijing Daelim Team generally decides whether to ship by LCL or Full Container according to the quantity of customer demands.

Different shipping methods determine different packaging.

Generally speaking, LCL will be packed in wooden boxes; while Full containers will be packed in wooden pallets.
Below are some photos of Daelim's export packaging for your reference.

8. What causes the 1000kva transformer to burn out?

8.1. Lack of protection system devices, there are no fuses on the high and low voltage sides, and the fuses are replaced by aluminum or copper wires, resulting in low-voltage short circuit or overload, and the transformer is burned out.
DAELIM's transformers use two fuse systems, Bay-o-net fuse and ELSP fuse, to avoid this problem.

8.2. Improper configuration of high and low voltage fuses. Although the fuses on the transformer are generally oversized, severe overloading will also burn the transformer.

8.3. The quality of the tap changer is poor or the tap changer is adjusted without authorization, causing the distribution tap changer not to be in place, bad contact, and burnt out.

8.4. Misoperation of load switch and other reasons

In addition to the protection configuration on the transformer, Daelim's engineering team strictly follows the requirements of ANSI, CSA and other standards, and will make safety signs at fuses, load switches and other places to prevent misoperation.

And the following test work will be done before putting into operation:
① Load switch 3 times, do not operate by mistake.
② Use the test button to test 3 times, it should be able to operate correctly.
③ Ground the test resistor 3 times, and it should operate correctly.
Ensure the safe operation of the transformer.

9. How About The Service Life Of A 1000KVA Transformer?

Transformers are consumables, but not FMCGs. Usually, the service life of the transformer will be several decades, the transformer designed and produced by Beijing Daelim can be used normally for 40-50 years.

We also have an official after-sales service center in North America, serving you anytime, anywhere, and escorting the transformers you use.
