187F16

Power Transformers Overview

The Hammond Manufacturing 187F16 is a chassis-mount power transformer from the 187 series, rated at 100 VA. It features a single primary winding designed for 115 VAC operation and operates on 50/60 Hz frequencies. The secondary output provides 16 VAC center-tapped configuration with a current rating of 6.25 A. Constructed with a laminated core, this unit utilizes quick connect terminals for electrical interfacing. Its physical dimensions are 102.36 mm in length, 57.15 mm in width, and 65.02 mm in height.

Power Transformers Feature Summary

• Chassis mount design for secure industrial installation
• Single primary winding optimized for 115 VAC input
• Laminated core construction for efficient power transfer
• Quick connect terminal type for simplified wiring

Power Transformers Applications

• Industrial automation control panels
• PLC system power supplies
• Electronics repair and maintenance equipment
• Low voltage AC power distribution

Power Transformers Procurement Notes

Verify that the application requires a single primary winding configuration, as the dual primary variant corresponds to the 186 series. Confirm compatibility with 115 VAC input sources and ensure sufficient chassis space for the specified mounting footprint. Check datasheet specifications for insulation class and thermal limits to guarantee safe operation within the intended environmental conditions.

Power Transformers Selection Notes

Select the 187F16 when a single 115 VAC primary is required, distinguishing it from the 186 series which supports dual primary voltages. Ensure the load does not exceed the 6.25 A secondary current rating. Consider the chassis mount style and quick connect terminals for integration into existing panel layouts requiring robust mechanical stability.

Power Transformers Part Context

This component belongs to the Hammond 187 series of industrial power transformers. It shares the same electrical ratings and physical form factor as the 186 series but differs in primary winding configuration. The 187 series is specifically engineered for applications where only 115 VAC input is available, providing a standardized solution for low voltage power conversion in industrial settings.

Power Transformers Replacement Considerations

The 186F16 serves as a functional substitute if the circuit supports dual primary voltage selection (115/230 VAC). Verify that the replacement maintains the 100 VA rating, 16 VAC CT output, and compatible mounting dimensions.
