182K6

Overview

The Hammond Manufacturing 182K6 is a toroidal power transformer with a 15 VA rating. It features dual primary windings for 115 VAC and 230 VAC input at 50/60 Hz. The secondary provides 12 VAC center-tapped at 1.25 A, or 6 VAC in parallel configuration. Chassis-mounted via wire leads, it measures 2.7 x 2.7 x 1.25 inches.

Feature Summary

• Toroidal core design for efficient magnetic coupling
• Dual primary winding capability for global voltage compatibility
• Flexible secondary output options including series and parallel configurations

Applications

• Industrial control panels requiring isolated power
• Audio equipment power supplies
• General purpose electronic circuit powering

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific part number suffix against official Hammond Manufacturing documentation to confirm exact electrical ratings and lead times. Ensure the chassis mounting style and wire lead termination match your enclosure design requirements before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a compact toroidal transformer is needed for 15 VA applications. Confirm that the dual primary input matches your available line voltage. Verify that the wire lead termination suits your internal wiring method rather than requiring terminal blocks.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Hammond 1182 series of industrial toroidal transformers. It shares the same physical footprint and mounting style as other variants in the series, differing primarily in secondary voltage and current ratings to suit various low-power industrial control needs.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include the 1182K12 for higher voltage outputs or the 182K6 from alternative distributors if specifications match exactly. Verify pinout and dimensional compatibility before swapping.
