TRANSFORMERS
THE GUND COMPANY IS ONE OF THE WORLD'S MOST RELIABLE MANUFACTURERS AND FABRICATORS OF INSULATION MATERIALS FOR ELECTRO-MECHANICAL APPLICATIONS IN THE TRANSFORMER MARKET.
Even though the primary components (core, coil, leads, and others) are similar in the dry type transformer (DTT) and liquid filled transformer (LFT). The insulation can be quite different. DTTs mainly utilize safety-certified CSA and UL-recognized high-temperature insulation materials. In contrast, LFTs use oil and high dielectric strength cellulose-based insulation materials like paper, pressboard, and wood.
The Gund Company manufactures a wide range of insulation components for the various transformer types. Our application engineering expertise can help our customers understand their insulation material selection and component options, from large liquid-filled transformers to dry type distribution transformers to low-voltage electronics transformers.
