Varivolt (Continuously Variable Voltage Auto Transformer)

Continuously Variable Voltage Auto Transformer

Varivolt is the most effective device meant for operation from a nominal input voltage of 240V 1Ph & can give output voltage anywhere between 0 to 240V or 0 to 270V 1Ph by simple transformer action. Three such Varivolt connected electrically in star and mechanically in tandem, become suitable for operation from a nominal input voltage of 415V 3Ph and can give output anywhere between 0 to 415V or 0 to 470V 3Ph.

“VARIVOLT” AUTO TRANSFORMER is a continuously variable voltage auto transformer, having a movable carbon tip, fixed to brush arm sliding on a silver plated commutator. Rotation of the brush arm by either manual or motor drive, delivers an output voltage from zero to or above line voltage. “VARIVOLT” conforms to I.S. 5142.

Varivolt Autotransformers: Built for Precise Voltage Control and Durability

HIGH CURRENT “VARIVOLT”

Our high-current transformers exceeding the industry standard! We offer single, two, and three-phase models ranging from 225 Amps up to 2000 Amps. Our innovative paralleling techniques achieve this impressive feat, surpassing the previous limit of 200 Amps for toroidal transformers. These robust transformers boast exceptional features like precise current sharing (±2%), easy transportation with separate radiators, a reliable gear-driven motor drive, and bus-bar terminals for high-current connections. Plus, they benefit from all the advantages of our oil-cooled autotransformers.

Key Features for Demanding Applications

Questions? You’re covered

Unlike other voltage control methods, Varivolt offers exceptionally smooth and precise voltage adjustment. It boasts a durable build for heavy-duty use, with minimal maintenance required. Additionally, Varivolt delivers a clean output waveform, protecting sensitive equipment.

02. What are the maintenance requirements for a Varivolt Auto Transformer?

Varivolt transformers are designed for low maintenance. However, some occasional care is necessary:

  • Carbon tip inspection: Regularly check the carbon tips on the brush arm for wear and replace them when needed.
  • Commutator cleaning: Clean the commutator surface to remove dust and debris that can affect performance.
  • General maintenance: Follow manufacturer recommendations for cleaning and inspecting other components to ensure optimal operation.

Varivolt transformers offer several advantages compared to alternative solutions:

  • Smooth and precise control: Unlike relays or switches, Varivolt allows for gradual and fine-tuned voltage adjustment.
  • Efficient operation: Low energy loss translates to lower operating costs.
  • Wide voltage range: Adjust voltage from zero to even slightly above the input voltage, providing greater flexibility.
  • Durable construction: Built to withstand heavy-duty use with minimal maintenance requirements.
  • Clean output waveform: Maintains a distortion-free output that protects sensitive equipment.
