RL-2240-6-10

Power Transformers Overview

The RL-2240-6-10 is a linear power transformer manufactured by Renco Electronics, Inc., designed for 50/60 Hz operation. It features a 20VA rating with a dual 115V primary winding configuration and two secondary windings supporting parallel or series connections. The unit provides 5V at 4A in parallel mode or 10V at 2A in series mode. Certified under UL, CSA, VDE, and IEC standards, it includes hipot testing at 4000 VRMS. The component utilizes chassis mounting and measures approximately 2.85 x 1.93 x 2.37 inches.

Power Transformers Feature Summary

• Shrouded design eliminates the need for electrostatic shielding due to low interwinding capacitance
• Includes mounting brackets and quick connector solder terminals for ease of use
• Hipot tested at 4000 VRMS between windings and core

Power Transformers Applications

• General purpose power supply applications requiring isolated AC voltage conversion
• Equipment needing UL, CSA, and VDE safety certifications
• Chassis-mounted electronic systems requiring robust thermal performance

Power Transformers Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific application circuit matches the required primary voltage and secondary current ratings before ordering. Confirm that the chassis mounting style aligns with the mechanical constraints of the target enclosure. Ensure compliance with RoHS directives if environmental regulations apply to the final product assembly. Cross-reference the datasheet for precise dimensional tolerances to avoid fitment issues during integration.

Power Transformers Selection Notes

Select this model when a 20VA capacity is sufficient for the load requirements. Choose the RL-2240-6-10 specifically for its ability to provide either 5V or 10V outputs depending on the secondary winding connection method. Consider the physical dimensions and chassis mount requirement as critical factors for mechanical design. Verify that the operating temperature range meets the environmental conditions of the intended deployment site.

Power Transformers Part Context

This component belongs to the RL-2260 family of All-In-One™ power transformers from Renco Electronics. The series is characterized by linear transformer technology and comprehensive safety approvals.
