Urja Techniques (India) Pvt Ltd is a leading transformer manufacturer based in India, supplying a wide range of high quality transformers - including converter duty, power, distribution, furnace, earthing and dry type transformers - to clients across Nigeria. With a focus on energy efficiency and dependable after-sales support, we serve buyers in Lagos, Abuja, Port Harcourt, Kano, Ibadan and Aba.
Product Introduction:
A furnace transformer supplies power to electric arc furnaces used in steel production and metal refining. It steps high-voltage grid electricity down to the high-current, low-voltage levels required by the furnace.
Built for the frequent short circuits and rapid load fluctuations of metal melting, furnace transformers use robust construction and heavy insulation to withstand high temperatures, vibration and electrical disturbances.
Features:
1. Robust construction for extreme temperatures, heavy loads and harsh conditions.
2. Efficient power distribution with low energy losses.
3. Advanced cooling to maintain optimal temperatures.
4. Compliance with stringent safety standards for personnel and equipment.
Advantages:
1. Withstands the dead short-circuits and load swings of melting cycles.
2. High secondary currents delivered with voltage stability.
3. Long service life in demanding foundry environments.
Applications in Nigeria:
● Electric Arc Furnace (EAF) duty in steel plants
● Ladle Refining Furnace (LRF) applications
● Induction furnace melting for foundries
● Submerged Arc Furnace (SAF) ferroalloy production
● Rectifier duty furnace and electrolysis processes
Why Furnace Transformers are in Demand in Nigeria
Niger Delta oil & gas operations, the Dangote Refinery at Lekki, ongoing power-sector reform across the GenCos, DisCos and the TCN grid, and Rural Electrification Agency solar mini-grid roll-outs are driving new transformer demand. Each project needs reliable transformers engineered for local conditions. Note that the Nigeria grid operates at 50 Hz, so our units are custom designed for 50 Hz or 60 Hz operation to match local utility and project specifications.
Supply & Logistics Across Nigeria
We export furnace transformers from India to all major Nigerian industrial and port regions. Consignments are shipped through Apapa and Tin Can Island ports in Lagos, Onne Port near Port Harcourt and Calabar Port. From there we serve the Lagos industrial belts of Ikeja, Apapa and Agbara, the Lekki Free Zone, the Ogun industrial corridor, Port Harcourt, Kano and Aba, covering the oil & gas, manufacturing, cement, power and utilities, mining and agro-processing sectors.
