RL-2240-2-24

Power Transformers Overview

The RL-2240-2-24 is a 1.1VA power transformer manufactured by Renco Electronics, Inc., designed for 50/60 Hz operation. It features a dual primary configuration rated at 115V and a secondary winding that supports parallel connection for 12V output or series connection for 24V output. The device provides a maximum current of 90mA in the parallel configuration and 45mA in the series configuration. It utilizes through-hole mounting technology and is constructed as a laminated transformer.

Power Transformers Feature Summary

• Compliant with UL Class 2 safety standards
• Includes fuse protection on all primary windings
• Designed to meet UL, CSA, VDE, and IEC requirements

Power Transformers Applications

• Class 2 power supply circuits
• Low voltage control systems
• Safety-isolated electronic equipment

Power Transformers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific pinout configuration required for your circuit design, as the secondary can be wired in either parallel or series modes. Confirm that the 1.1VA rating meets the load requirements of your application. Ensure the through-hole footprint matches your PCB layout. Check for compliance with local safety regulations such as UL, CSA, VDE, or IEC depending on the target market.

Power Transformers Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-power, safety-isolated transformer is needed for Class 2 applications. The dual primary allows flexibility for different input voltages. Consider the physical dimensions and through-hole mounting constraints during the mechanical design phase. This model is suitable for applications requiring reliable isolation and standard regulatory certifications.

Power Transformers Part Context

This part belongs to the RL-2252 and RL-2240 series of laminated transformers from Renco Electronics. These components are characterized by their compact size and robust safety features. The series is widely used in industrial and consumer electronics where strict adherence to safety standards like UL Class 2 is mandatory.

Power Transformers Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include models with similar VA ratings and electrical specifications. Verify that any replacement maintains the same insulation voltage and physical mounting dimensions to ensure compatibility with existing hardware.
