182M15

Overview

The Hammond Manufacturing 182M15 is a toroidal power transformer rated at 80 VA. It features dual primary windings supporting 117 VAC and 234 VAC inputs, and a dual secondary winding configuration providing 30V CT (15V + 15V). The unit operates at 50 Hz/60 Hz frequencies. Secondary current ratings are 2.67 A in series mode and 5.34 A in parallel mode. It utilizes wire lead termination for chassis mounting.

Feature Summary

• Low electromagnetic field radiation due to toroidal core design
• Space-saving and lightweight construction
• Dual primary winding capability for flexible voltage input

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring low profile transformers
• Equipment needing isolated dual voltage outputs
• Chassis-mounted electronic assemblies

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific secondary configuration requirement (series vs. parallel) against the load specifications before ordering. Confirm that the dual primary winding matches the available supply voltage (117V or 234V). Ensure chassis mounting provisions accommodate the physical dimensions and weight of the unit. Check for RoHS compliance requirements if applicable to the final assembly.

Selection Notes

Select this model when space constraints and low electromagnetic interference are critical. The dual secondary output allows for flexible circuit design, supporting both split-rail and single high-current configurations. Compare the 80 VA rating against peak load demands to ensure adequate capacity. Consider the wire lead termination style for ease of integration into existing wiring harnesses.
