 Guide for trouble-shooting

Pos.

Problem

Possible reason

Corrective action

1

Overtemperature of a single winding

Load is not distributed uniformly

Check the position of the 

connection on the tappings

Faulty temperature sensors or 

temperature control device

Replace the faulty piece. Check 

the connections between the 

probe box and the control units 

/ possible presence of false 

contacts between the individual 

connection cables

2

General overheating

High ambient temperature

Possible damaged fans. Clean 

possible openings of the room 

or of the box which have been 

blocked Check as per paragraph 

5.4

3

Overheating in the core

Eddy currents in the magnetic core, 

due to a damage on the insulation of 

the ties

Contact Technical Assistance 

service After Sales.

4

Abnormal noise

Primary voltage too high

Verify that the voltage on the 

off-load secondary windings is 

lower or equal to the one written 

on the rating plate. Check as per 

paragraph 6.4

Abnormal noise

Rigid connection with the Busbar. 

Rigid connection with the floor. Bolts 

of tie rods the lens nucleus.

Insert flexible connections 

between transformer and Busbar. 

Insert anti-vibration pads under 

the rollers. Tighten loose bolts of 

tie rods.

5

Intervention of the alarm and tripping 

relay of the temperature control 

device, due to overtemperature

Faulty temperature sensors or 

temperature control device

Replace the faulty piece

Load current higher than the nominal 

value on the rating plate / high 

content of harmonics in the load 

current.

Reduce the load in order to have 

the nominal rated current or 

install the air circulation system

Difficult or not enough ventilation air 

flow

Check as per paragraph 5.4

Possible poor electrical contact of the 

temperature sensors

Check, clean and tighten all 

contacts of the sensors

6

Untimely intervention of the electrical 

system protections due to transformer 

insertion

The setting of the HV circuit breaker 

for the CRT insertion current is too low

Modify the protection setting 

paying attention to the H2 control 

(second harmonic)
