Abstract

A high-voltage transformer module includes a transformer core including at least one winding, and a mechanical supporting structure having the transformer core integrated permanently therein. The mechanical supporting structure has corner points arranged in the form of a right-parallelepiped. The corner points are in the form of load transfer points and are arranged corresponding to the dimensions of a CSC (International Convention for Safe Containers) container.

Claims (31)

1. A high-voltage transformer module, comprising:

a transformer core including at least one winding; and

a mechanical supporting structure having the transformer core integrated permanently therein, the mechanical supporting structure having corner points arranged in the form of a right-parallelepiped and having a connection extending from the transformer core to each corner point,

wherein the corner points are in the form of load transfer points and are arranged corresponding to the dimensions of a CSC (International Convention for Safe Containers) container, and the transformer core is centrally arranged in the CSC container.

2. The high voltage transformer module as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the corner points are in the form of standardized container corners.

3. The high-voltage transformer module as claimed in claim 2 , wherein areas spanned by the corner points are each in the form of a wall such that a container like vessel is formed with an interior.

4. The high voltage transformer module as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the container like vessel is in the form of a container corresponding to the CSC standard.

5. The high voltage transformer module as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the walls are each at least regionally double walled.

6. The high-voltage transformer module as claimed in claim 3 , comprising at least one transverse wall in the interior, the transverse wall dividing the interior into at least one first interior and at least one second interior, the transformer core with the winding being arranged in the first interior.

7. The high voltage transformer module as claimed in claim 6 , wherein at least one of the interior and the first interior is hermetically sealed.

8. The high voltage transformer module as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the at least one of the interior and the first interior is filled with an oil.

9. The high voltage transformer module as claimed in claim 6 , comprising:

an electrical switchgear assembly, which is galvanically connected to the at least one winding, the electrical switchgear assembly being provided within one of the interior and the second interior.

10. The high voltage transformer module as claimed in claim 6 , comprising:

at least one inverter and/or rectifier, the at least one inverter and/or rectifier being galvanically connected to the at least one winding, and provided within one of the interior and the second interior.

11. The high voltage transformer module as claimed in claim 6 , comprising:

a cooling system including at least one heat exchanger being provided within one of the interior, the first interior and the second interior; and

a movement apparatus, by means of which the at least one heat exchanger is movable from a transport position within the one of the interior, the first interior and the second interior into a working position located at least partially outside.

12. The high voltage transformer module as claimed in claim 3 , comprising:

at least one cutout configured to be closed by means of a cover, the at least one cutout being provided in at least one of the walls.

13. The high-voltage transformer module as claimed in claim 12 , comprising:

an electrical leadthrough arranged in the interior through the at least one cutout.

14. An electrical energy system having a modular design and comprising at least one high voltage transformer module as claimed in claim 1 .

15. The electrical energy system as claimed in claim 14 , wherein the electrical energy system is a testing station system for power transformers.

16. The high voltage transformer module as claimed in claim 3 , comprising:

an electrical switchgear assembly, which is galvanically connected to the at least one winding, the electrical switchgear assembly being provided within the interior.

17. The high voltage transformer module as claimed in claim 3 , comprising:

at least one inverter and/or rectifier, the at least one inverter and/or rectifier being galvanically connected to the at least one winding, and provided within one of the interior and the second interior.

18. The high voltage transformer module as claimed in claim 3 , comprising:

a cooling system including at least one heat exchanger being provided within the interior; and

a movement apparatus, by means of which the at least one heat exchanger is movable from a transport position within the interior into a working position located at least partially outside.
