Reinforced concrete solutions: ERSO will supply a transformer to ZSMK

20.12.2021
The holding is constructing an electrical transformer for a Siberian mining and metallurgical company.

An electric furnace transformer will soon be supplied to the West Siberian Metallurgical Plant, part of the EVRAZ Group. At the moment, he is undergoing the final acceptance procedures.

Electric furnace transformers are invented specifically to work with high current rates, reaching values of more than 100 kiloamperes, for a stable power supply of electric arc steel-making furnaces. Their feature is characterized by frequent overvoltages and overcurrents. Therefore, EFTs are designed to withstand frequent operational short circuits, thermal loads and overvoltages.

Thanks to ERSO`s technologies, ZSMK electric furnaces will operate stably and produce fittings. The mill recently shipped 310 tons of 100-meter rails for the St. Petersburg metro, which reduces the number of welds. This increases the safety of train traffic, and due to their smooth and quiet running, metro rides become more comfortable for passengers.
