IF-6-56

Power Transformers Overview

The IF-6-56 is a semi-toroidal power transformer manufactured by Signal Transformer, designed for through-hole mounting. It features a single primary winding rated for 115V or 230V operation and dual secondary windings providing 28V at 220mA in parallel or 56V at 110mA in series configurations. The unit delivers a maximum power of 6VA with a dielectric strength of 4000Vrms. Operating frequencies are specified at 50/60Hz, and the encapsulated laminated core construction ensures reliable performance within standard industrial temperature ranges.

Power Transformers Feature Summary

• Semi-toroidal encapsulated design for compact integration
• Dual secondary windings supporting flexible voltage configuration
• High dielectric isolation strength for safety compliance

Power Transformers Applications

• General purpose AC to DC power supply circuits
• Industrial control panel power distribution
• Consumer electronics requiring isolated low-voltage DC

Power Transformers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific datasheet version to confirm exact physical dimensions and pinout compatibility before integration. Ensure the selected variant matches the required primary voltage input (115V vs 230V) and secondary current rating. Confirm RoHS compliance status if environmental regulations apply to the final assembly. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number against authorized distributor lists to avoid counterfeit components.

Power Transformers Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact semi-toroidal form factor is required alongside high isolation voltage. The dual secondary option allows designers to choose between higher current at lower voltage or lower current at higher voltage without changing the footprint. Consider the encapsulation type for vibration resistance and environmental protection compared to open-frame alternatives.

Power Transformers Part Context

This model belongs to the Signal Transformer IF series of board-mount power transformers. These units are characterized by their semi-toroidal geometry, which offers improved efficiency and reduced electromagnetic interference compared to traditional E-I laminated cores. The series is widely used in applications demanding reliable isolation and space-constrained designs.

Power Transformers Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes may include other semi-toroidal transformers from Signal Transformer with identical electrical ratings. Verify that alternative parts maintain the same 4000Vrms isolation and 6VA power rating. Check mechanical footprint compatibility to ensure the replacement fits existing PCB layouts without modification.
