SolaHD K-Factor Ventilated Transformers are specifically designed to supply nonlinear electronic loads that generate harmonic currents. Unlike standard dry-type transformers, K-Factor transformers are engineered to withstand the additional heating effects caused by harmonics while maintaining reliable operation and long service life.
Available in standard K-4, K-13 and K-20 ratings, these three-phase transformers are commonly used with variable frequency drives (VFDs), uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), telecommunications equipment, PLCs, data centers, healthcare facilities and other installations where harmonic-producing loads are present.
Standard models are available from 15 kVA through 500 kVA, depending on the selected K-factor rating, with primary voltage taps, electrostatic shielding and multiple voltage configurations to meet a wide variety of industrial and commercial applications.
