In 2024 a pharmaceutical manufacturing company in Puerto Rico sought a reliable power solution that would ensure uninterrupted electricity supply to its highly sensitive production facility. With strict quality standards and continuous production schedule of pharmaceutical production plants, the plant requires more than just electrical capacity. It needs a transformer that would perform reliably, safely and efficiently in a climate where there is very high humidity throughout the year and frequent storms.
The Solution
Daelim Transformer provided a custom 12 MVA three phase oil filled transformer that has been tailored for substation integration at the plant. The transformer was designed, assembled, and tested as per the international standards of IEEE and other required for the pharmaceutical applications.
Designed for Resilience and Operational Continuity
Pharmaceutical manufacturing environments demand a very strict control over the work environment temperature, humidity and process time. Any undesirable change in these parameters due to electrical disruption can jeopardize the final product integrity.
To address this, a special transformer was engineered and configured by Daelim Transformers to meet the site’s most pressing needs.
- The transformer was designed to deliver a stable performance under peak load to enable 24/7 operation of HVAC systems, filtration, and sensitive lab equipment.
- A climate resilient design to withstand the Puerto Rico tropical climate and support the consistent thermal management for efficient operation.
- The transformer is configured in a way that it offers minimal maintenance disruption as external access is given for all gauges, drain valves, and all types of monitoring points. It simplifies the inspection and servicing.
Rapid Delivery, Seamless Integration
From production to the installation of the electrical transformer, the project was a complete success. The project was completed within a tight timeline to align with the facility expansion and schedule.
The transformer goes through factory acceptance testing, delivered, installed and then the site acceptance testing process and was commissioned in mid 2024 without any delays. The delivery and integration process was completed without any interference with ongoing production activity at the plant.
Local utility teams coordinate closely with Daelim engineers to ensure a smooth energizing process.
Results at a Glance
- The transformer has provided uninterrupted electricity since it was commissioned in 2024 with zero downtime. The plant has experienced no power fluctuation or production stoppage during this time.
- Transformer reliable design and efficient operation has reported an improvement in power stability even during the seasonal weather events.
- On site maintenance staff can safely monitor and test the transformer performance of the transformer with minimal intervention and with zero disruption of pharmaceutical company operation.
- Transformer full conformity with IEEE and UL standards, supports safe, auditory ready operation.
Powering Health Through Infrastructure
By delivering stable and resilient power to a leading pharmaceutical site the project supports the broader mission of reliable healthcare production. Whether it’s about producing essential medication or life saving treatment the facility now operates with greater confidence because knowing that the electrical backbone is built to last long without compromising operation efficiency.
