BV302S15024

Overview

The BV302S15024 is a 2.4VA encapsulated power transformer from Zettler Magnetics, designed for through-hole mounting. It features a single primary winding rated for 230V input and a single secondary winding providing 15V output at 160mA maximum current. The unit utilizes EI30 laminations and is fully encapsulated under vacuum pressure to ensure compactness and efficiency. This component operates at standard 50/60Hz frequencies and is suitable for linear power supply applications requiring reliable isolation.

Feature Summary

• Fully encapsulated construction under vacuum pressure for enhanced efficiency and compact form factor
• Single primary winding configuration optimized for 230V AC input
• Through-hole installation with PC pin termination style
• EI30 lamination size supporting 2.4VA power rating

Applications

• Linear power supply circuits
• Electronic equipment requiring isolated AC voltage conversion
• Industrial control systems utilizing through-hole mounting

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific part number against official Zettler Magnetics documentation to confirm electrical ratings and physical dimensions. Ensure compatibility with existing PCB layouts regarding through-hole spacing and encapsulation height. Cross-reference datasheet specifications for insulation requirements and thermal performance before integration into final designs.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 2.4VA power rating is required with a fixed 230V primary input. The encapsulated design offers protection against environmental factors compared to open-frame transformers. Consider the 15V secondary output and 160mA current limit to ensure it meets the load requirements of the target application circuit without exceeding thermal limits.

Part Context

This transformer belongs to the BV series of laminated power transformers manufactured by Zettler Magnetics. The series is characterized by vacuum-pressure encapsulation, which contributes to smaller size and improved efficiency relative to non-encapsulated counterparts. The BV302S15024 specifically denotes the 2.4VA variant within the EI30 lamination family.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must match the 2.4VA rating, 230V primary, 15V secondary, and 160mA current specifications. Verify that alternative components maintain the same EI30 lamination size and through-hole footprint to ensure mechanical compatibility in existing assemblies.
