High frequency, aluminum foil, copper foil, foil winding
Electrocube designs and manufactures hundreds of transformers and inductors using aluminum foil or copper foil in place of the standard copper wire used in conventional coil wire-wound transformers. This unique construction technology was first introduced to the aerospace industry by the transformer design manufacturer in the 1960s.
What types of transformers does Electrocube manufacture and distribute?
Hundreds of Electrocube electrical component designs are available, including specific, qualified designs as OEM or replacement parts for all major commercial aircraft and jetliners, military and defense aircraft as well as many land-based facilities. The efficiency of these transformers exceeds 95% with regulations of 2% to 5%.
Aluminum foil transformers
Copper foil transformers
Foil winding transformers
High frequency transformers
How do foil transformer designs work?
Basic construction consists of electrical grade aluminum or copper foil, temperature-suitable interwinding insulation, fiberglass and nomex sheet insulation. The unit is then vacuum pressure impregnated (VPI) with a specially formulated epoxy resin designed to assist in heat transfer and to bond the components into a stable, dense unit.
Produced as isolation transformers or autotransformers in all standard mechanical configurations (open frame or enclosed), foil transformers operate within single phase current or multiphase current parameters of:
Frequency: 300 Hz to 10 KHz
Power: 25 VA to 50 KVA and up
Voltage: Fractional volts 110 to 600V (higher voltages over 600V available)
Temperature: -50°C to 250°C ambient (fully rated)
Advantages of foil transformers vs. wire-wound transformers?
Increased reliability
Reduced size
Reduced weight
Higher ambient temperature operating capability
Improved electrical efficiency
Increased electrical stress resistance
Better overall regulation
What industry applications are Electrocube foil transformers used in?
Commercial jetliners
Military aircraft, defense aviation
Aerospace support
Common aerospace commodities
Electrical, hydraulic and mechanical systems
Propulsion systems
New technology
