182R30

Overview

The Hammond Manufacturing 182R30 is a toroidal power transformer with a 500VA rating and 50Hz frequency. It features dual primary windings for 117V and 234V inputs. The secondary configuration provides dual outputs of 30V at 8.33A, which can be connected in series to yield 60V CT at 8.33A or in parallel to yield 30V at 16.66A. This component utilizes a low-profile design suitable for space-constrained industrial applications.

Feature Summary

• Low electromagnetic field (EMF) radiation due to toroidal construction
• Space-saving and lightweight design resulting from high efficiency
• Dual primary winding capability for versatile voltage input compatibility

Applications

• Industrial equipment requiring isolated power supplies
• Audio amplification systems utilizing balanced or split-rail configurations
• Control panels needing compact transformer solutions

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific secondary connection requirement (series or parallel) against the application circuit before ordering. Confirm that the 50Hz frequency specification aligns with the target power grid standards. Ensure physical clearance accommodates the unit's dimensions. Check current availability status as stock levels may fluctuate rapidly.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a 500VA capacity is required within a low-profile form factor. Choose the 182R30 over standard laminated transformers where reduced weight and lower magnetic interference are critical. Ensure the input voltage matches either 117V or 234V single-phase sources. Verify that the output current requirements do not exceed 8.33A per secondary leg.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Hammond Series 30 toroidal transformer family. These units are engineered for industrial environments demanding reliability and compactness. The series emphasizes efficient core utilization to minimize size while maintaining robust electrical performance under continuous load conditions.

Replacement Considerations

Consult Hammond Manufacturing directly for alternative solutions if this part is discontinued or unavailable. Do not substitute with generic equivalents without verifying exact electrical parameters and physical mounting constraints.
