A Legacy of Excellence: The Timeless Reliability of Elprom’s OLTC Units

Back in 1986, Elprom shipped a set of On-Load Tap-Changer (OLTC) units to Romania. These were crafted with the kind of meticulous attention to detail and quality that defined our work. Fast forward nearly 40 years, and these same units are still in operation, a quiet testament to the durability and reliability that Elprom is known for.

Over 100,000 Switching Operations and Still Going Strong

These OLTC units have been integral to Romania’s power grid for decades, performing more than 100,000 switching operations without fail. That is a staggering number, considering how much the energy landscape has evolved over the years. Yet, these units have kept up, continuing to deliver the consistent, reliable performance they were built for.

It was not until last month that these units required their first maintenance check. Think about that—a piece of equipment running flawlessly for almost four decades before needing any sort of tune-up. Even then, the maintenance was routine, with the units found to be in great shape. This kind of longevity is not just impressive; it is a testament to the quality of Elprom’s engineering.

The RS 9 Model: A Benchmark for Reliability

Within Elprom’s lineup, the RS 9 model has emerged as the star player. This model has become a top choice for power companies not just in Romania, but globally. It is easy to see why—the RS 9 combines advanced technology with a rugged design, making it both highly efficient and exceptionally durable.

The RS 9 is not just another product in our catalog; it is a symbol of what Elprom stands for. When companies choose the RS 9, they are not just buying a piece of equipment—they are investing in reliability, performance, and peace of mind. The enduring success of the RS 9 is proof that quality engineering stands the test of time.

A Legacy Built on Trust

Elprom’s OLTC units are more than just components; they are vital to the smooth operation of power systems that millions of people depend on. The longevity and minimal maintenance of the units in Romania are living proof of the quality we deliver. This is not just about making products that last; it is about building lasting relationships with our clients, based on trust and proven performance.

As we look ahead, Elprom remains committed to the standards that have brought us here. The story of these OLTC units in Romania is not just a reflection of our past achievements; it is a promise of the continued excellence you can expect from us in the future.
