290VEX is listed in the Power Transformers range at ChipApex. The manufacturer field lists Hammond Manufacturing. Its product description is POWER TRANSFORMER, REPLACEMENT F. Review the specifications below when checking this part for your BOM.
The Hammond Manufacturing 290VEX is a laminated core power transformer designed for tube guitar amplifiers. It features a single primary winding rated for 240 VAC input at 50/60 Hz. The secondary configuration provides a high voltage output of 650 VAC center-tapped, along with dual low-voltage windings rated at 6.3 VAC and 5.0 VAC. This component utilizes chassis mounting and wire lead termination to facilitate integration into vintage-style audio equipment.
Verify that the target amplifier circuit requires a 240 VAC primary input before installation, as this model differs from standard 120 VAC variants. Confirm that the physical chassis dimensions accommodate the specific footprint of the 290VEX unit. Ensure that the wire lead connections match the existing harness specifications of the equipment being serviced or built.
Select the 290VEX when the application specifically requires a 240 VAC primary voltage rating, distinguishing it from the 290TX which operates on 120 VAC. Consider this model for projects requiring a direct drop-in replacement for Fender amplifiers designed for international voltage standards. Evaluate the triple secondary winding layout against the specific tube complement and bias requirements of the target circuit design.
This component belongs to the Hammond 290 series, a line of power transformers widely recognized for their use in classic American guitar amplifiers. The series offers various primary and secondary configurations to suit different regional voltage standards and amplifier power levels. The 290VEX represents the variant optimized for 240 VAC regions while maintaining the electrical characteristics required by the original equipment designs.
The 290VEX is rated for a single primary winding input of 240 VAC.
Yes, the high-voltage secondary winding is center-tapped at 650 VAC.
