The estimated factory price for our new S20-150kVA oil-immersed transformers typically ranges from $2,340 to $4,530 . This is a general range, and your final quote will depend on your specific requirements.
1. Raw Material Costs (Core Factor):
Copper vs. Aluminum Windings: This is the most critical differentiator! Copper winding transformers offer superior performance (lower losses, stronger overload capacity, longer lifespan) but are significantly more expensive than aluminum winding units. The price difference for a 150kVA transformer can be thousands of dollars. Always confirm the winding material.
Silicon Steel Core: The brand and grade of the silicon steel used (e.g., WISCO, Baosteel, Shougang, or imported) directly impact the no-load loss. Higher-performance steel comes at a higher cost.
2. Brand & Manufacturer:
Tier-1 Brands (e.g., TBEA, XD, Baobian, Sunten): Stringent quality control, premium materials, extensive after-sales networks, and the highest prices.
Regional Leading Brands: Offer a strong balance of reliability and cost-effectiveness, representing a popular market choice.
Smaller Manufacturers: Provide the most competitive prices but require careful diligence regarding quality and service guarantees.
3. Technical Parameters & Standards:
Energy Efficiency: The S20 standard meets the Chinese national Grade 2 energy efficiency requirement. While older models like S13 may be cheaper, S20 is the modern baseline. Higher efficiency grades (e.g., S22, SH25) command a premium price.
Loss Parameters: Even within the S20 class, no-load and load loss values can vary slightly between manufacturers. Lower losses mean a higher price.
4. Configuration & Options:
Enclosure Protection Rating: IP20 (standard indoor) or IP23 (weather-proof for outdoor), with different price points.
Controls & Cooling: The inclusion of an intelligent temperature controller, communication interfaces, or forced-air cooling fans will add to the cost.
Tax: Whether the price includes China's 13% Value-Added Tax (VAT) significantly impacts the final cost.
5. Shipping & Installation:
Quotes are often FOB (Free On Board), meaning they exclude shipping, insurance, and installation costs. Distance and special transport requirements (e.g., for oversized loads) incur additional fees.
To obtain the most precise and cost-effective offer, we advise you to:
1. Define Your Requirements Clearly:
Winding Material: Specify your preference (we recommend copper windings).
Detailed Configuration: Specify the installation environment (indoor/outdoor), need for a control box, protection rating, etc.
2. Compare Multiple Suppliers:
Do not rely on a single quote. Contact 3-5 manufacturers of different scales. Provide them all with the same, clear technical specifications to receive detailed written quotations.
Consult both local distributors and direct factories to compare prices and service offerings.
3. Scrutinize the Quotation:
Carefully compare details on all quotes: brand, material (copper/aluminum), loss parameters, configuration list, tax inclusion, shipping costs, and warranty terms. Be cautious of prices that seem unusually low, as they may indicate inferior materials.
