GNEE Industry Insight

0.23mm grain-oriented silicon steel delivers the best cost performance under 50/60Hz power frequency. If your operating frequency exceeds 400Hz, we recommend opting for thinner grades such as 0.20mm. You may send us your designed operating frequency for loss simulation prior to material selection.

Note: P1.5 and P1.7/60 values are for reference only and are not used as delivery acceptance criteria.

 

There may be slight differences between typical values provided by suppliers and factory-guaranteed values. Common reference data are as follows:

Parameter	Typical Value	Guaranteed Value (as-shipped)
Core Loss P1.7/50 (W/kg)	0.95	1.00 / 0.96 max
Magnetic Induction B8 (T)	1.90	1.89 min
Min. Lamination Factor	–	≥ 95%
Theoretical Density (kg/dm³)	7.65	–

 

Parameter	Specification / Tolerance
Nominal Thickness	0.23 mm
Thickness Tolerance	+0.010 / –0.020 mm
Longitudinal Thickness Deviation	≤ 0.012 mm
Transverse Thickness Deviation	≤ 0.010 mm
Width Tolerance (sheared edge)	0 ~ +0.5 mm

Coil Inner Diameter	508 mm ± 10 mm

 

Tip: When burrs exceed 0.03 mm, the lamination factor will drop below 93%, and the insulating coating is prone to being punctured. Our longitudinal slitting lines can consistently control burrs within ≤0.02 mm. Deburred edges are recommended for high-frequency stamping applications, which can extend die service life by 30%.

1.0W/kg Ultra-Low Core Loss for Long-Term Energy Saving

Approximately 15-17% lower core loss compared with conventional 23Q120 grades, significantly reducing end-user electricity expenses and shortening investment payback period

 

0.23mm Thin Gauge for Reduced Eddy Current Loss

0.23mm thickness effectively suppresses eddy current loss under medium-high frequency conditions, improving overall efficiency of PV/wind grid-tied transformers

 

High Magnetic Induction for Compact Core Design

High value allows smaller core cross-section, reducing total steel consumption and lowering transformer manufacturing costs

 

Stable Coating & Reliable Processability

Uniform insulating coating with good stress resistance; stable magnetic properties after stress relief annealing, compatible with high-speed automatic stamping lines

 

Imagine reducing transformer no-load loss by approximately 15-17% without changing your core design.. That's exactly what 23QG100 delivers.

• 66kV-220kV medium-voltage power transformers
• Photovoltaic inverter transformers & wind turbine step-up transformers
• Precision instrument transformers & series reactors

 

Targeted Industry Solutions

• For transformer manufacturers: Custom width slitting + technical support for core loss matching
• For energy-saving renovation projects: Small-batch fast delivery for old transformer core upgrading

 

Core Material	Core Loss
23Q120	1.20 W/kg
23Q110	1.10 W/kg
23QG100	1.00 W/kg

 

For a typical 1000 kVA distribution transformer operating continuously, upgrading from 23Q120 to 23QG100 may reduce annual no-load energy losses by approximately 15-17%, depending on core design and operating conditions.
