DST-5-36

Overview

The Signal Transformer DST-5-36 is a Class 2 split bobbin power transformer with a 12 VA rating. It features dual primary windings for 115 VAC and 230 VAC inputs. The secondary provides 36 VCT in series or 18 V parallel configurations, supporting currents of 350 mA and 700 mA respectively. Dimensions are 48.4 mm length, 40.4 mm width, and 36.9 mm height. It utilizes through-hole mounting and offers 2500 Vrms isolation.

Feature Summary

• Split bobbin construction minimizes capacitive coupling between windings.
• Dual primary windings allow flexible connection for 115 VAC or 230 VAC systems.
• Class 2 safety rating ensures compliance with low-energy circuit standards.

Applications

• Servo drive power supplies
• Industrial control panel transformers
• Low-power equipment requiring isolated AC sources

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific secondary configuration required (series vs. parallel) against the application schematic. Confirm that the physical dimensions fit the designated PCB footprint. Ensure the input voltage matches the available primary winding setup. Check RoHS compliance status if environmental regulations apply to the final assembly.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a 12 VA rating and split bobbin isolation are necessary. Choose based on the need for dual primary flexibility across 115/230 VAC regions. Consider the through-hole package constraint and the specific secondary voltage requirements for the load circuit.
