850EA

Overview

The Hammond Manufacturing 850EA is a sealed audio transformer designed for broadcast applications. It features a primary impedance of 200 Ohms with dual taps at 50 and 200 Ohms, suitable for microphone or line-level connections. The secondary side offers dual configurations: 600 Ohms and 150/150 Ohms center-tapped. This component facilitates signal transmission between transmitters and receivers in professional audio environments.

Feature Summary

• Sealed construction ensures environmental protection and durability
• Dual primary impedance options support flexible source matching
• Multiple secondary tap configurations accommodate varied load requirements

Applications

• Microphone to line-level signal conversion
• Transmitter to receiver interconnection
• Broadcast studio audio routing

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific impedance configuration required for your circuit design against the available primary and secondary taps. Confirm that the sealed housing meets your environmental standards. Ensure compatibility with existing broadcast infrastructure before finalizing the order.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a robust, sealed solution is needed for professional audio signal transfer. Consider the dual primary and secondary options to match specific source and load impedances without additional matching networks. Ideal for fixed installations where reliability is critical.

Part Context

Part of the 850A series, this transformer is engineered for high-fidelity audio transmission. It serves as a key interface component in broadcast chains, bridging low-impedance sources with standard line-level inputs while maintaining signal integrity through its sealed design.
