Taiwan: After winning the 13th Public Construction Golden Quality Award, Tatung Company stated it will continue its efforts to develop smart industrial appliances with optimal safety and energy-saving standards in the next 50 years.

The company won the award for undertaking the “New Construction of 161kV Gas-insulated Switchgear and Ancillary Equipment Project of the Third Nuclear Power Plant” in 2013.

P.B. Feng, Tatung’s domestic marketing director of the Industrial Appliance Business Unit of the Power Business Group, noted that energy-saving efforts have to focus on power distribution and that Tatung has been promoting the use of amorphous transformers for years. Many outdated distribution transformers installed in factories, buildings and public places need replacing in order to save power.

Holding the key patented technologies for producing amorphous transformers, Tatung can produce “three-leg” transformers that save more space and offer better magnetic force balance compared with traditional “five-leg” models.

The company has also developed Tatung Smart Partial Discharge Analyzer (TSPDA), which detects a slight discharges through high RF (radio frequency) and AE (acoustic emission) sensors.

Tatung has previously set records such as launching Taiwan’s first 345 kV oil-immersed transformers in 1984 and the introduction of new technologies for manufacturing 161 kV-class SF6 gas-insulated and amorphous transformers.
