161FA12

Overview

The Hammond Manufacturing 161FA12 is a chassis-mount power transformer with a 1.2 VA rating. It features a single primary winding rated for 115 VAC input. The secondary configuration provides dual windings, delivering 6.3 VAC at 200 mA in parallel or 12.6 VAC at 100 mA in series. Termination is achieved via solder pins for secure PCB or panel mounting.

Feature Summary

• Chassis-mount design for stable installation
• Dual secondary winding flexibility
• Solder pin termination style

Applications

• Low-power electronic equipment
• Control circuitry
• Signal processing units

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific secondary voltage and current requirements against the datasheet before ordering. Confirm that the chassis-mount form factor and solder pin dimensions match the target assembly. Ensure compliance with relevant safety standards for the intended application environment.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact 1.2 VA transformer is required for 115 VAC systems. The dual secondary option allows for versatile voltage generation. Consider thermal management and physical clearance for the chassis-mount footprint during integration.

Part Context

This transformer belongs to the 161 series of power transformers from Hammond Manufacturing. These components are designed for general-purpose applications requiring reliable isolation and voltage transformation in compact enclosures.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct substitutes within the 161 series or equivalent ratings from other manufacturers. Verify that replacement parts maintain the same primary voltage, VA rating, and physical mounting dimensions.
