290CX is listed in the Power Transformers range at ChipApex. The manufacturer field lists Hammond Manufacturing. Its product description is PWR XFMR LAMINATED CHAS MT. Review the specifications below when checking this part for your BOM.
The Hammond Manufacturing 290CX is a laminated core power transformer designed for tube application equipment. It features a single primary winding rated at 120V and three secondary windings providing 650V, 6.3V, and 5V outputs. The unit supports maximum currents of 207mA, 4A, and 3A respectively, with a total power rating of 63.1 VA. It utilizes chassis mounting and wire lead termination.
Verify the specific primary voltage requirement (120V) against your local mains supply to ensure compatibility. Confirm that the secondary current ratings meet the thermal and electrical demands of the target tube circuit. Check datasheet specifications for physical dimensions to ensure adequate clearance within the enclosure. Ensure proper insulation standards are met for safety compliance in high-voltage environments.
Select this model when a 120V primary input is required alongside specific secondary voltages of 650V, 6.3V, and 5V. Compare the 63.1 VA power rating against the total load requirements of the vacuum tubes and associated components. Consider the chassis mount style and wire lead termination for ease of installation in existing or custom-built enclosures.
The 290CX belongs to the Hammond 290 series of tube application power transformers. This series is widely recognized for replacing original equipment manufacturer (OEM) transformers in classic guitar amplifiers. The component serves as a critical interface between mains power and the high-voltage DC rectification stage of tube circuits.
The primary winding is rated for 120V AC.
Yes, the 650V secondary winding is center-tapped, while the 6.3V and 5V windings provide standard isolated outputs.
