RITZ INSTRUMENT TRANSFORMERS, INC.

Voltage Transformers
VEF 15-09 Single Pole
VZF 15-09 Double Pole
General Description
Ritz manufactures an extensive line of cast epoxy resin
insulated transformers across the voltage range of 5.5 kV
is brochure describes outdoor Voltage Trans-
formers in the 15kV class with performance ratings coincid-
ing with industry standard product offerings. Ritz, because
of product depth, familiarity with international standards
and custom design capability can also design a solution to
your specific needs.

Construction
e core and coil assembly is encapsulated in cycloaliphat-
ic epoxy resin in a single process, performed under vacuum,
e resin color is grey.
Brown is available by special order. Epoxy resin was chosen
because of its excellent tracking resistance, high mechanical
strength, ability to withstand ultraviolet radiation, superior
weathering characteristics and its noncumbustibility.
Base Plate
e base is made of marine-grade aluminum and is se-
curely attached to the transformer body. Industry standard
mounting dimensions and a single hole ground pad 90° to
the mounting plate are provided.

Primary Terminals Nameplates

Primary line terminals are tin plated copper studs with Nameplate data is black laser-etched on stainless steel
connectors capable of accommodating #10 to #1 AWG con- plates.
e H2 neutral terminal on single bushing models is
insulated to withstand a 19 kV test level. Line terminals are Mounting
detachable so that alternate terminal configurations can be e transformers can be mounted in the horizontal, verti-
considered. cal or suspended position.

Secondary Terminals Tests

Secondary terminals are bronze clamp type with a large
diameter hole. A ground terminal is also provided for
grounding of the secondaries at the transformer.
Terminal Box
e cast aluminum terminal box has one-inch conduit
hubs on both ends and a knock out for a one-inch conduit
fi e box is attached to the transformer
body by four bolts in an industry standard pattern and can
easily be detached, simplifying change out procedures.
Routine tests in compliance with IEEE and CSA are
standard. Test cards are included with each unit.
Commissioning and Maintenance
Transformers are supplied ready for service. No special
tools are required. Instruction manuals are provided with
each shipment.
