BV301S15023

Overview

The BV301S15023 is a 2.3VA encapsulated power transformer from Zettler Magnetics, designed for through-hole mounting. It features a single 115V primary winding and a single 15V secondary winding. The unit delivers a maximum current of 153mA at full load. Constructed with EI30 laminations, the transformer measures 32.8mm in length, 27.8mm in width, and 29.8mm in height. It operates at standard 50/60Hz frequencies and provides electrical isolation suitable for general power supply applications.

Feature Summary

• Encapsulated construction for environmental protection
• Through-hole PC pin termination for board mounting
• Single primary and single secondary winding configuration
• EI30 lamination size for compact form factor

Applications

• General purpose AC to DC power supplies
• Low voltage electronic equipment power stages
• Control circuit power isolation
• Industrial control panel transformers

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official Zettler Magnetics documentation to ensure correct voltage and current ratings. Confirm that the encapsulation type matches the thermal requirements of the target application. Check RoHS compliance status if restricted substances are a concern. Ensure the through-hole footprint dimensions align with the printed circuit board layout before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-power, encapsulated transformer is required for 115V input systems. The 15V output at 153mA suits applications needing modest power levels. Consider the physical dimensions of 32.8x27.8x29.8mm for spatial constraints. Evaluate the need for encapsulation versus open-frame designs based on insulation and environmental exposure requirements.

Part Context

This model belongs to the BV Series of encapsulated power transformers by Zettler Magnetics. The series utilizes EI30 laminations and offers various voltage configurations. The BV301S15023 specifically targets 115V primary applications with a 15V secondary output. It is part of a broader range of similar transformers differing primarily in wattage and secondary voltage specifications.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other BV series variants such as BV301S12023 or BV301S18023 if voltage differences are acceptable. Cross-reference with equivalent EI30 core transformers from other manufacturers ensuring identical VA rating and physical footprint compatibility.
