162J10

Overview

The Hammond Manufacturing 162J10 is a laminated core power transformer designed for board mount applications. It features a low profile construction suitable for PCB integration. The unit operates with a primary voltage of 115V or 230V configured in parallel. Secondary outputs provide 5V and 10V center-tapped configurations, supporting parallel connections at 7.2A or series connections at 3.6A. This component delivers a total power rating of 36VA.

Feature Summary

• Laminated core design for efficient power conversion
• Low profile form factor optimized for PCB mounting
• Dual secondary voltage options for flexible circuit integration

Applications

• Industrial control panel power supplies
• Electronic equipment internal power distribution
• Low voltage AC to DC converter input stages

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific winding configuration required for your application, as the 162J10 supports both parallel and series secondary connections. Confirm that the physical footprint aligns with your PCB layout constraints due to its low profile design. Ensure the operating temperature range meets your environmental specifications before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a compact, board-mount solution is needed for 36VA applications. Consider the 115V/230V parallel primary requirement for global compatibility. Evaluate the 5V and 10V CT secondary options against load current demands to determine if parallel or series wiring best suits the system architecture.

Part Context

This component belongs to Hammond Manufacturing's line of board mount power transformers. It is engineered for direct integration into printed circuit boards rather than chassis mounting. The product serves as a fundamental power source element in various electronic assemblies requiring isolated AC voltage transformation.
