 What Are Off-Center Radiators?

Off-center radiators are oilimmersed transformer cooling units where the header pipe is positioned to the side of the radiator panels (instead of the center). This lateral placement either to the left or right is designed to accommodate asymmetric space constraints or unique tank layouts, enabling easier installation in compact or customized environments.

Key Features & Specifications

• Offset Positioning:

  • Headers can be placed right or left at specified offsets such as 130mm or 180mm, as per customer needs.

  • Spatial flexibility allows these radiators to fit in tight, asymmetrical setups.

• Panel & Structural Details:

  • Plate widths commonly range from 220mm to 520mm .

  • Center-to-center distances span 500mm to 4000mm .

  • Sheet thickness: 1mm to 1.6mm, typically made from CRCA steel.

  • Fin count ranges from 1 up to 35 fins, depending on cooling requirements.Standards & Testing:

• • Manufacturers adhere to IEEMA, DIN 42559, IEC60076222, and other international standards 

  • Hydrostatic pressure testing typically conducted at 2.0kg/cm or higher (e.g., 2.5kg/cm) for 1530 min to ensure leak-free reliability .

• Surface & Accessories:

• Primed and painted with epoxy, PU, or enamel coatings; grits blasting for better finish and corrosion resistance.

• Optional accessories include flanges, gaskets, lifting hooks, air-release plugs, and packaging suitable for exports 
  

Applications

• Power & Distribution Transformers: Ideal for oil-cooled transformers that require lateral header placement .

• Custom Tank Designs: Suited to unconventional installations, limited space, or when central mounting is obstructed
