T1000 OPAL™ Series 

Energy Efficient Harmonic Mitigating Transformers

Harmonic mitigating transformers optimized to deliver 30% less losses than DOE 2016* minimum efficiency requirement, for New Construction, LEED®, Net Zero and High Performance buildings that require improved power quality in a harmonic-rich environment.

APPLICATION

The T1000 OPAL™ Series (T1000-30H model) is an ultra-efficient, low-voltage, dry-type harmonic mitigating transformer that delivers an average of 30% less losses than a DOE 2016 minimum transformer efficiency, while under a heavy harmonic-rich load.

The T1000-30H model is OPAL™ designed to reduce voltage distortion in harmonic-rich environments and to maximize energy savings in new construction, LEED®, Net Zero & High Performance building applications with harmonic-rich environments.

For retrofit applications under energy performance contracts that require verified savings, see our E-Saver OPAL-R™ Series transformers.

For all other high efficiency or load specific transformers go to the E-Saver OPAL™ Series transformers.

Powersmiths enables right-sizing of electrical infrastructure by offering a much broader selection of transformer kVA sizes. The capital cost, operating cost and footprint reductions can be dramatic – on the order of 30-50%, through smaller transformers, breakers, conductors, and distribution panels. 
Powersmiths guarantees that every transformer we manufacture meets our published technical data, and furthermore, that this performance is met over the full term of the 32-year pro-rated warranty. Being able to trust that savings are both real and long-term is part of why organizations choose Powersmiths.
Many general purpose transformers are purchased and installed because they have the lowest first cost, however, they carry a UL label on the basis of feeding only linear loads. Since most connected loads today are electronic with nonlinear profiles, a low-voltage transformer needs to be K-rated in order to have a valid UL listing for most applications today. E-Savers are appropriately K-rated. 
By going meaningfully beyond the DOE 2016 baseline efficiency, the E-Saver™ contributes to green building, LEED®, Net Zero and carbon footprint reduction goals. Additional benefits include our ISO14001 certified manufacturing, integrated metering and ability to integrate with the Powersmiths WOW™ Sustainability Management Platform.
Powersmiths certifications include ISO 9001 (Quality), ISO 14001 (Environment), ISO 17025 (Efficiency Test Lab), UL and CSA. Powersmiths has a production integrated nonlinear load test program that enables efficiency verification under real-world conditions, as well as IPMVP compliant field measurement of losses and efficiency, and Certified Test Lab Load Profile test reports.
Integrated metering can provide information about capacity utilization, load profiles, power quality and energy use.

The lockable hinged door and our patented 360º Rotatable IR Port™ options, both provide quicker maintenance access and reduce arc flash safety risks.

**CU=Copper, CU/AL=Copper Primary with Aluminum Secondary
***K-Rating per IEEE-C57.110. The high K-factor rating is not the goal of the design, but a consequence of the low current densities used to achieve the high loading efficiency goals.
