DST-6-10

Overview

The DST-6-10 is a laminated core power transformer from the Split/Tran series, designed for board mount applications. It features dual primary windings rated for 115 VAC and 230 VAC operation at 50 Hz or 60 Hz frequencies. The secondary configuration provides split outputs of 10 VCT and 5 V with corresponding current ratings of 2 A and 4 A. With a 20 VA power rating, it utilizes through-hole solder pin termination. Physical dimensions are 57.2 mm in length, 47.8 mm in width, and 36.9 mm in height.

Feature Summary

• Dual primary winding capability allows flexible connection to either 115 VAC or 230 VAC input sources.
• Split secondary winding design provides multiple voltage taps for diverse circuit requirements.
• Class 2 transformer construction ensures compliance with safety isolation standards.
• Laminated core technology supports efficient magnetic coupling at standard line frequencies.

Applications

• General purpose AC power supply circuits
• Industrial control panel power distribution
• Electronic equipment requiring isolated low voltage DC conversion

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific order matches the exact model number DST-6-10 to ensure correct secondary voltage and current specifications. Confirm that the receiving facility has appropriate handling procedures for through-hole components. Check datasheet revisions for any updates regarding mechanical mounting tolerances or electrical characteristics before finalizing procurement documentation.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a 20 VA power rating is required with split secondary outputs. Ensure the application environment supports through-hole mounting techniques. Verify that the input voltage range aligns with the dual primary winding options. Consider physical space constraints given the specific length and width dimensions provided in the official specifications.

Part Context

This part belongs to the DST series manufactured by Signal Transformer. The series is characterized by split bobbin construction which aids in reducing inter-winding capacitance. These transformers are classified as Class 2 devices, indicating specific safety limitations on output energy. The product line focuses on reliable performance for standard frequency operations in various electronic assemblies.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include DST-6-12, DST-6-16, and DST-6-28, which share identical physical dimensions and primary configurations but offer different secondary voltage ratings. When replacing, verify that the new part's secondary current and voltage capabilities meet the load requirements without exceeding thermal limits.
