DP-241-7-48

Overview

The DP-241-7-48 is a laminated core power transformer from the 241 series, designed for industrial control applications. It features dual primary windings rated for 115 VAC and 230 VAC input, supporting both 50 Hz and 60 Hz operating frequencies. The secondary winding provides a 48 VCT output with a current rating of 1.2 A, delivering a total power capacity of 56 VA. The unit utilizes a split bobbin construction to ensure superior isolation and low capacitive coupling between windings. It is configured for chassis mounting and employs quick connect terminals for electrical interfacing.

Feature Summary

• Split bobbin design providing superior isolation and low capacitive coupling
• Dual primary winding configuration for versatile voltage input compatibility
• Laminated core construction optimized for standard frequency operation

Applications

• Industrial machinery control circuits
• Electrical equipment power distribution
• Renewable energy system components

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version to confirm compliance with current safety standards and insulation class requirements. Ensure that the receiving facility has adequate ventilation to manage thermal dissipation within the specified operating temperature range. Confirm that the chassis mounting holes align with the enclosure design before final integration into the assembly.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a 56 VA capacity is required for converting standard line voltages to a 48 VCT supply. The dual primary winding allows flexibility in regions with varying input standards without requiring different part numbers. The chassis mount style is suitable for open-frame installations where direct panel attachment is preferred over PCB mounting solutions.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Signal Transformer 241 series, which specializes in industrial control transformers. The series utilizes a split bobbin architecture to enhance electrical safety and performance characteristics compared to traditional wound designs. These transformers are engineered for durability in demanding industrial environments, offering reliable power conversion for control systems.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include models with identical power ratings but different secondary voltages, such as the DP-241-7-24 or DP-241-7-12. Cross-series replacements require careful verification of physical dimensions, pinout configurations, and thermal performance specifications to ensure compatibility with existing mechanical enclosures.
