A Complete Guide to Power Configuration and Transformer Selection for the WBZA600 Stabilized Soil Mixing Plant
Sep 19,2025

In large-scale infrastructure construction, the WBZA600 stabilized soil mixing plant, with its production capacity of up to 600 tons/hour, has become a core piece of equipment for large-scale projects. Proper power configuration and transformer selection are directly related to equipment efficiency and the smooth progress of the project. This article will detail the WBZA600's power requirements and key transformer selection criteria.

I. Detailed Explanation of WBZA600 Power Requirements

As an industry-leading ultra-large stabilized soil mixing plant, the WBZA600's power configuration embodies the energy-saving philosophy of modern construction machinery. Its power consumption is primarily distributed across the following systems:

Mixing System

It utilizes a dual-motor drive design with a total power of 90kW, ensuring powerful mixing and high mixing uniformity.

Conveying System

This system includes aggregate and powder conveying, with a total power of approximately 55kW. It utilizes variable frequency control technology for energy-saving operation.

Dust Removal System

The high-efficiency pulse dust removal system, with a power of 2.2kW, meets environmental requirements.

Auxiliary System

Includes auxiliary equipment such as air compressors and water pumps, with a total power of approximately 10kW.

The total installed power of the WBZA600 stabilized soil mixing plant is typically 165kW. The actual operating power will vary depending on the production process and load conditions.

 II. Transformer Capacity Selection Guide

Selecting the appropriate transformer capacity is key to ensuring stable operation of the WBZA600. The following provides professional selection recommendations:

Selection Calculation Formula:

Transformer Capacity (kVA) ≥ (Total Installed Power × Demand Factor Kx) / Power Factor cosφ

Recommended Parameter Values:

- Demand Factor Kx: 0.65-0.75 (0.7 recommended)

- Power Factor cosφ: 0.80-0.85 (0.83 recommended)

For a total power of 165kW, 1650.7/0.83 = 139, so a 150kVA transformer is recommended.

 III. Power Optimization Recommendations

Energy-Saving Measures

1. Adopt variable frequency drive technology to save over 20% of electricity.

2. Optimize production processes to reduce no-load operating time.

3. Perform regular equipment maintenance to maintain optimal operating conditions.

Power Factor Compensation

It is recommended to install a reactive power compensation device to increase the power factor to above 0.95, effectively reducing power loss.

Operation Management

1. Develop a scientific operation plan to avoid frequent equipment starts and stops.

2. Strengthen operator training to improve equipment efficiency.

3. Establish an energy consumption monitoring system to monitor equipment operating status in real time.

 IV. Transformer Selection Considerations

Capacity Margin

It is recommended to reserve a 20%-30% margin based on the calculated capacity to accommodate unexpected loads and future expansion needs.

Environmental Factors

Consider factors such as the installation environment's temperature, humidity, and altitude, as these factors can affect the transformer's actual output power.

Energy Efficiency Level

Although Class 1 energy-efficiency transformers require a higher initial investment, they offer greater long-term energy savings.

Backup Plan

For critical projects, a dual-transformer power supply solution is recommended to ensure production continuity.

5. Equipment Operation Assurance

Power Monitoring

Install a power monitoring system to monitor voltage, current, power factor, and other parameters in real time to ensure power supply quality.

Emergency Power Supply

Equip emergency power generation equipment to ensure the normal operation of critical equipment during power outages.

Regular Inspections

Perform regular inspections and maintenance of the power supply system and transformers to promptly identify and eliminate potential hazards.
