specifications

Varelen has more than 30 years of experience in the provision of flameproof transformers for use in hazardous and gassy atmospheres above and below ground, and non-flameproof transformers (ANAN/ONAN/KNAN/GNAN) for Mining, Tunnelling and industrial applications.

 

 

HV and LV switches have three configuration options:

A) Mining Flameproof HV vacuum switch + Mining Flameproof LV protection box 

B) Mining Flameproof HV vacuum switch + Mining Flameproof LV feed switch

C) Mining Flameproof HV vacuum switch + Mining Flameproof LV multi-loop combined switch(LMCC)

Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: Can the equipment handle harsh mining environments?

A: Absolutely. Our flameproof mining substations use high-temperature resistant, moisture-proof, dust-proof, and corrosion-resistant materials. They are designed to operate reliably in high humidity, dust, and high-temperature mine conditions.

Q2, Are custom hazardous location transformers available?

Yes. Varelen designs and manufactures custom hazardous location transformers to meet project-specific requirements. Options include special voltage ratings, enclosure materials, temperature-rise classes, and mounting configurations.  Each custom design is fully tested and certified for its intended hazardous classification, ensuring compliance, reliability, and safe operation in demanding environments.
