RL-2240-6-12

Power Transformers Overview

The RL-2240-6-12 is a 20VA linear power transformer manufactured by Renco Electronics, Inc. It features a primary voltage of 115V and dual secondary configurations: parallel 6.3V at 3.2A or series 12.6V at 1.6A. The unit supports chassis mounting with dimensions of 2.85 x 1.93 x 2.37 inches. It includes UL, CSA, and VDE certifications and undergoes hipot testing at 4000 VRMS.

Power Transformers Feature Summary

• Low interwinding capacitance design eliminates the need for electrostatic shielding
• Shrouded construction enhances safety and operational reliability
• Includes mounting brackets and quick connector solder terminals for ease of installation

Power Transformers Applications

• Chassis-mounted power supply units
• Industrial control equipment requiring isolated power
• Audio systems utilizing split-rail or dual-voltage architectures

Power Transformers Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific application requires the 20VA rating and 115V primary input. Confirm mechanical fit within the chassis using the provided dimensional data. Ensure compliance with local safety standards such as UL, CSA, or VDE requirements for the final assembly environment.

Power Transformers Selection Notes

Select this model when a compact, certified linear transformer is needed for 115V mains operation. Choose the parallel configuration for lower voltage/higher current needs or series for higher voltage applications. Verify thermal management capabilities given the operating temperature range up to +130°C.

Power Transformers Part Context

This component belongs to the RL-2260/RLD-2240 family of All-In-One™ power transformers from Renco Electronics. These units are designed for general-purpose industrial and commercial applications where space constraints and safety certifications are critical factors in the design process.

Power Transformers Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other models within the RL-2240 series with matching VA ratings and pinouts. Verify that any replacement maintains the same insulation voltage and physical mounting footprint to ensure compatibility with existing chassis designs.
