During the upgrade and renovation of power supply systems in urban cores and rail transit, legacy substations often face the critical bottleneck of cramped space. Especially for Air-Insulated Switchgear (AIS), the dispersed arrangement of traditional Voltage Transformers (VTs) and their associated equipment (surge arresters, disconnectors) severely consumes valuable space, becoming a "bottleneck constraint" hindering retrofits and upgrades. To address this, we introduce the ​Compact and Integrated AIS Voltage Transformer Solution, centered on "minimizing footprint and maximizing integration," breaking through traditional design limitations.

Core Innovations:

  1. Revolutionary Tri-function Integration:
    • Breaking Boundaries:​ Highly integrates the Voltage Transformer (VT), surge arrester, and disconnector into a single compact module.
    • Space Efficiency:​ Achieves an astonishing 40% size reduction compared to traditional discrete arrangements.
    • Enhanced Efficiency & Reduced Load:​ Eliminates complex connections and redundant structures between discrete devices, significantly simplifying internal switchgear layout and secondary wiring.
  2. Vertical Stacked Layout for Space Expansion:
    • Leveraging Vertical Space:​ Abandons traditional footprint-centric thinking, fully utilizing the vertical space resources within the enclosure.
    • Stacked Design:​ The core integrated module and its auxiliary units adopt a multi-layer vertical stacking arrangement.
    • Minimalist Installation:​ Modular design supports back-to-back mounting, drastically improving space utilization, ideal for confined dual-mounting spaces.
  3. Directed, High-Efficiency Forced-Air Cooling Duct:
    • Precise Temperature Control:​ Specifically addresses the heat dissipation challenges arising from high integration with an innovatively designed directed airflow duct.
    • High-Power Forced Cooling:​ Combines high-efficiency, low-noise fans to create a robust, directed forced air convection flow within the module and its stacked structure.
    • Power Density Breakthrough:​ Revolutionary cooling technology elevates the power density of this integrated solution to a remarkable 5kVA/dm³ (5kVA per cubic decimeter), ensuring stable, full-power operation within an extremely compact footprint.

Application Scenarios:

  • Retrofit of land-scarce substations in city centers
  • Power supply systems for space-constrained rail transit (subway, high-speed rail), especially underground or elevated stations
  • Industrial parks and building power distribution stations with tight land resources
  • Shipboard platforms, mobile substations, and any scenario with extreme space sensitivity

Significant Advantages & Value:

  • Footprint Reduction by 50%:​ With equivalent functional configuration, the overall equipment footprint is only half that of traditional solutions, completely overcoming space constraints at legacy sites.
  • Extreme Adaptability:​ Perfectly fits ultra-compact housing environments (e.g., 3m×2m cabins), providing a reliable solution for space-constrained scenarios.
  • Doubled Deployment Efficiency:​ Integrated modular design and simplified installation methods significantly shorten on-site construction and commissioning cycles.
  • Enhanced Reliability:​ Optimized cooling and layout reduce thermal hotspots and failure risks, resulting in stronger system stability.
  • Total Lifecycle Cost Optimization:​ Significantly saves valuable land resource investment, reduces civil works and installation costs, and simplifies later operation and maintenance.
