Howard Power Solutions' medium-voltage dry-type transformers are designed to meet the demanding requirements of many industrial, commercial and utility applications. Typical applications include, data centers, hospitals, schools, hotels, mining, paper mills, steel mills, shopping centers, manufacturing plants, airport terminals, water treatment plants, and other applications requiring the size, weight, safety and environmental advantages of a dry-type transformers. We produce VPI (vacuum pressure impregnated ) Dry Type Transformers, we are UL certified up to 2.5 MVA , and our scope is up to 10 MVA AA/AF and up to 34.5 KV primary voltage.
Howard Industries manufactures a complete line of transformers, all designed with increased margins of safety and reliability. Contact your distributor or factory representative for availability of other kVA sizes, voltage ratings, features, accessories and design standards not listed.
