VPL20-500

Power Transformers Overview

The Triad Magnetics VPL20-500 is a chassis-mount power transformer with a 10 VA rating. It features dual primary windings for 115V and 230V operation at 50/60Hz. The secondary output provides 2 x 10V CT at 500mA. Constructed with European-style split bobbins, it meets international safety standards. Termination is via wire leads.

Power Transformers Feature Summary

• Dual primary winding configuration supporting both 115V and 230V input voltages
• European-style split bobbin construction designed to meet international safety agency standards
• Chassis mount installation style with wire lead termination

Power Transformers Applications

• Industrial control equipment requiring low-voltage DC power
• Chassis-mounted electronic enclosures
• General-purpose AC to AC power conversion in industrial settings

Power Transformers Procurement Notes

Verify the specific voltage configuration required for your application, as this model provides a 2 x 10V CT secondary. Confirm that the chassis mounting dimensions and wire lead lengths are compatible with your design constraints. Ensure the 10 VA power rating meets the load requirements of the target circuitry before finalizing procurement.

Power Transformers Selection Notes

Select this component when a compact, chassis-mount solution is needed for 115V or 230V primary inputs. The split bobbin design ensures compliance with international safety regulations. Consider the 500mA current limit and 10 VA rating to ensure adequate capacity for the intended secondary load without exceeding thermal limits.

Power Transformers Part Context

This unit belongs to the World Series™ line of power transformers from Triad Magnetics. The series is characterized by its use of European-style split bobbins and adherence to international safety standards. It serves as a standard industrial-grade component for converting mains voltage to lower AC voltages for downstream rectification.
