EAF Transformers – Why & Where Are They Used - Miracle Electronics

1
EAF transformers The name may make you think
about them to be complex transformers with a
complicated functioning. But, they arent so
complex. EAF transformers are Electric Arc
Furnace transformers that are generally used with
electric arc furnaces or ladle metallurgy
stations to transform high-voltage low- current
electrical power to low-voltage high-current
electric arcs inside an EAF furnace to melt
scrap steel.

• The scrap steel is exposed directly to the
  electric arc produced by the EAF transformers
  inside an electrical arc furnace to temperatures
  up to 1800C. These transformers help in
  maintaining a perfect balance in the electric
  circuit, as a lot of charge accumulation in one
  portion of the circuit can lead to load shedding
  or wearing down of the device. This advantage
  and functioning of an EAF transformer is what
  helps it to be used in a number of applications,
  such as in gas factories, steel plants, and in
  industries manufacturing calcium carbide.
• Benefits of using an EAF transformer
• There are a lot many benefits of using an EAF
  transformer, some of the advantages being
  mentioned below.
• EAF transformers are industrially manufactured
  devices, each unit being sold by registered
  dealers, who procure complete details of the
  customer before

• making the sale. This is because these EAF
  transformers are highly expensive, which is why
  you must always purchase from a leading
  transformer manufacturer in India, to ensure
  safety and the guarantee of making a right
  purchase.
• The details of EAF transformer manufacturers are
  always available online, which makes it easy to
  track them down. This means there is no
  possibility of any unscrupulous practices, which
  is why these industrial devices are rarely
  mishandled, thus saving you from any such
  problems, as you can be sure youve made a
  legitimate purchase.
• An EAF transformer is manufactured with the help
  of machines, and each component is made by
  expert manpower, which means you can expect a
• strong-built device at your service. This means
  there is completely durability. And, if you
  purchase from a genuine transformer manufacturer
  in India, one like Miracle Electronics, you can
  rest assured of having the best after sales
  service too.
• Applications of EAF transformers
• Gas factories Electricity is used in gas
  factories to perform the process of catalysis,
  that is, combining or breaking down the
  components of a gaseous mixture, which cannot be
  achieved by normal processes of applying heat and
  pressure. EAF transformers are useful to carry
  out such specific reactions.
• Steel plants Steel plants require melting of
  iron at high temperatures, and a sturdy furnace
  that can help them achieve a large amount of
  heat, which can liquefy the iron, so that the
  various components can be formed from it. This is
  where EAF transformers can help.
• So, whether your application is that in a gas
  factory or steel plant, or even in an industry
  that manufactures calcium carbide, you can rely
  on EAF transformers to easily and effectively
  carry out your power transformations from
  high-voltage low-current electrical power to
  low-voltage high-current electric arcs inside an
  EAF furnace.
