Transformers for marine application
TMC designs and manufactures new high-tech solutions for the maritime & offshore sector
Across all industrial sectors worldwide, a profound shift is underway: sustainability is no longer a niche concern but a core priority. This global transformation is driving the rapid adoption of green technologies and eco-friendly solutions. In the marine and offshore sectors, this transition is particularly evident. The push for shore-to-ship electrification (cold ironing) is reshaping port operations, enabling vessels to plug into the electrical grid while docked, reducing emissions and noise in port areas. At the same time, the rise of electric propulsion systems is redefining vessel design and energy management, paving the way for cleaner and more efficient marine industry.
TMC Engineering excellence meets marine standards
Dry-type transformers are not traditionally designed for the harsh and corrosive conditions (salt, humidity) typical of marine and offshore environments. However, TMC has changed the market, engineering a new generation of dry-type transformers specifically built to withstand outdoor and marine conditions. Through advanced materials, structural innovation, and specialized protective treatments, we deliver solutions that meet the highest standards of reliability, safety, and environmental resilience.
TMC key features:
- IP34 or IP44 protective enclosures designed to shield the unit from dust, water ingress, and other environmental factors typical of marine and offshore installations.
- Air-to-water heat exchangers (AFWF) integrated into the enclosure to efficiently cool the system.
- Integrated pre-magnetization units to mitigate inrush currents, which could otherwise damage primary components.
- 24/7 support to manage the complexity and urgency of on-board maintenance and repairs. Rapid response is critical in these environments, and our experts are trained to minimize downtime and ensure uninterrupted vessel operations.
- Compliant to all the international maritime regulations and certification requirements.
