182N15

Overview

The Hammond Manufacturing 182N15 is a toroidal power transformer with a 120 VA rating. It features dual primary windings for 115 VAC and 230 VAC input at 50/60 Hz. The dual secondary configuration provides 30 VAC center-tapped in series or 15 VAC in parallel, supporting up to 4 A and 8 A respectively. It utilizes wire leads for termination and chassis mounting, measuring 1.63 inches in height.

Feature Summary

• Toroidal core design offering space-saving and lightweight construction with low electromagnetic field radiation
• Dual primary winding capability for flexible 115 VAC or 230 VAC operation
• Dual secondary winding allows versatile series or parallel voltage configurations

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring isolated power supply
• Audio equipment power stages needing low noise and high efficiency
• Chassis-mounted electronic enclosures with limited vertical clearance

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific secondary configuration requirement (series vs. parallel) against the load current needs before ordering. Confirm that the chassis mounting style and wire lead termination are compatible with the target assembly. Ensure the input voltage matches the available dual primary winding options of 115 VAC or 230 VAC.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a compact, high-efficiency toroidal transformer is required for industrial or audio applications. The 120 VA rating suits moderate power demands. Consider the physical height constraint of 1.63 inches and the need for chassis mounting. Verify that the dual secondary flexibility meets the specific voltage and current requirements of the circuit design.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Hammond 182 series of industrial toroidal transformers. It shares the series' characteristic low-profile design and dual primary versatility. Unlike open-frame variants, it offers reduced electromagnetic interference, making it suitable for sensitive signal environments within industrial control panels.
