165S18

Overview

The Hammond Manufacturing 165S18 is a laminated core power transformer designed for chassis or open horizontal mounting. It features a single primary winding rated at 115V and a single secondary winding providing 18V output. The unit supports a maximum current of 10A with a total power rating of 180VA. Electrical isolation between windings is specified at 2000Vrms. The transformer utilizes wire leads for termination and includes a C-style channel bracket for installation.

Feature Summary

• Laminated core construction for efficient magnetic coupling
• Single primary to single secondary winding configuration
• Integrated C-style channel bracket for mounting flexibility

Applications

• Chassis-mounted electronic equipment
• Low voltage filament power supplies
• Industrial control systems requiring isolated AC power

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific lead time and availability directly with authorized distributors, as stock levels fluctuate. Confirm that the 115V primary voltage matches your system requirements. Ensure the 18V secondary output and 10A current capacity meet the load demands. Check for any required ordering suffixes if custom lead lengths are needed beyond the standard specification.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a robust, general-purpose power transformation solution is required for 115V input systems. The 180VA rating provides sufficient headroom for moderate loads. Consider the physical dimensions and mounting style compatibility with the target enclosure. Verify insulation class and temperature rise ratings against environmental operating conditions.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Hammond Manufacturing 165 series of power transformers. These units are characterized by their laminated steel cores and standardized electrical ratings. The series offers various voltage configurations to suit different industrial and commercial applications, emphasizing reliability and ease of integration into existing hardware designs.

Replacement Considerations

Consult official Hammond Manufacturing documentation for direct cross-reference part numbers. Verify that any substitute maintains identical electrical parameters including 115V primary, 18V secondary, and 180VA power rating. Ensure mechanical mounting hole patterns and terminal types are compatible with the existing assembly.
