Product Features

Heat Dissipation - Zero Energy, Maintenance-Free

Natural "chimney-effect" ventilation eliminates traditional cooling fans and temperature controls, verified by third-party temperature-rise tests. At 2 fans × 70W × 10h/day, each unit saves 450+ kWh annually, while removing fan maintenance and failure risks.

Transformer - Optimized, Fully Sealed, Touch-Safe

Low-loss S13 series oil-immersed transformer with an optimized body saves space. Touchable plug-in HV cable connectors + enclosed LV bus duct fully seal all live parts, enabling safe contact while energized.

Dehumidification - Condensation Type, Intelligent Integration

A dedicated dehumidifier creates local condensation to turn moist air into water discharged directly outside, rapidly reducing humidity with no temperature-rise impact. Features adjustable thresholds, fully automatic operation, and remote monitoring - ideal for humid outdoor environments.

LV Side - Integrated, Compact, External Operation

An integrated LV switchgear combines metering, incoming, outgoing, and capacitor functions. Draw-out intelligent frame main breaker + plug-in intelligent MCCB outgoing switches with obvious disconnection points. Panel-type operation eliminates shock and arc-flash risks; components are front-maintained.

Enclosure - Small, Light, Aesthetic

Compact technology significantly reduces volume and weight versus conventional substations. Enclosure options: stainless steel, aluminum alloy, cold-rolled steel, color-steel composite - all aging-resistant, flame-retardant, anti-corrosion, waterproof, dustproof. Aluminum wood-grain trim with customizable colors suits scenic spots, residential areas, and municipal projects.

Product Comparison

 

image003

Figure 1 shows a compact energy-saving European-style substation, configured with 3 high-voltage gas-insulated cabinets (incoming line, ring outgoing, transformer outgoing), 1 low-voltage integrated cabinet (including metering, incoming line, outgoing line, capacitor), and a 630kVA transformer.

Dimensions: 2700mm (L) × 2300mm (W) × 2618mm (H); Footprint: 2.7m × 2.3m = 6.21m²

 

image005

Figure 2 shows a standard ordinary substation, configured with 3 high-voltage ring main units, 1 low-voltage incoming cabinet, 1 outgoing cabinet, 1 capacitor compensation cabinet, and a 630kVA transformer.

Dimensions: 4300mm (L) × 2400mm (W) × 2700mm (H); Footprint: 4.3m × 2.4m = 10.32m²

Comparison of footprint between ordinary and compact substations: 10.32m² - 6.21m² = 4.11m². Converting one 630kVA substation to a compact type saves 4.11 m² of land. The low-voltage switchgear structure has been researched and optimized, achieving a volume reduction of approximately 50%, a more appearance suitable for residential environments, 40% savings in cold-rolled steel, and approximately 25% savings in copper materials.

Application

Central Business & Commercial Districts

Land-scarce CBDs, commercial complexes, and office towers demand compact footprints and aesthetic appeal. With ~40% less footprint than conventional substations, aluminum wood-grain trim, and customizable colors, it blends seamlessly with surrounding architecture. Fanless natural ventilation ensures noise-free operation - ideal for high-end commercial environments.

High-End Residential Communities

Urban luxury residences, townhouses, and villa communities require reliable power, low noise, and landscape harmony. Eliminated cooling fans achieve zero-noise operation; intelligent dehumidification ensures safe power in humid seasons; fully sealed touch-safe design enhances intrinsic safety; and the exterior can be coordinated with community landscaping.

Municipal Engineering & Urban Lighting

Urban road lighting, landscape illumination, and underground facility projects often face limited installation space and harsh outdoor conditions. The enclosure is aging-resistant, flame-retardant, anti-corrosion, waterproof, and dustproof for long-term outdoor use. Multiple wiring schemes (terminal/ring/dual-power) flexibly adapt to municipal power networks.

Tourist Scenic Areas & Landscape Sites

Scenic spots, parks, and cultural tourism projects require power facilities that integrate with the landscape. Compact size, elegant appearance, and customizable color styles allow concealed or accent installation - avoiding the visual disruption of conventional substations.

Humid Southern & Coastal Regions

In humid southern and coastal climates, outdoor switchgear is prone to condensation and insulation degradation. The intelligent condensation dehumidifier operates automatically with remote monitoring and no temperature-rise impact, significantly improving reliability in humid environments.

Space-Limited Renovation & Expansion Projects

Old-city renovation, plant expansion, and temporary power supply scenarios with constrained sites. The compact "eye-shaped" layout greatly reduces volume and weight for easy transport and quick deployment in limited space - saving civil engineering investment.

FAQ

 

Q: What cooling method does it use? Are fans still required?

A: It adopts "chimney-effect" natural ventilation - cool air drawn in from the bottom and hot air exhausted from the top - completely eliminating traditional axial fans and temperature controls. Zero energy consumption, maintenance-free, and verified by third-party temperature-rise tests.

Q: What are the protection ratings and noise level?

A: HV compartment: IP4X; transformer compartment: IP2X; LV compartment: IP3X. Noise level: 52~73 dB, varying with transformer capacity.

Q: Is natural ventilation cooling sufficient in extreme summer heat?

A: The product adopts an overall natural ventilation structure using the "chimney effect" for air circulation cooling, verified by third-party temperature-rise tests. Under standard operating conditions (max ambient temperature +40°C), normal operation of the transformer and HV/LV equipment is guaranteed. If the project ambient temperature exceeds the standard range, a customized solution can be negotiated with the manufacturer.
