We are Manufacturer, Supplier, Exporter of Control Transformers and our set up is situated in Pune, Maharashtra, India.
A control transformer is a type of transformer used in electrical systems to supply
power to control circuits. It is specifically designed to provide a lower voltage output, typically ranging from a few volts to a few hundred volts, which is suitable for powering control devices such as relays, timers, solenoids, contactors, and other
control components.
The primary function of a control transformer is to step down the voltage from the
main power supply to a level that is safe and compatible with the control devices.
Control transformers have two windings: the primary winding and the secondary
winding. The primary winding is connected to the main power supply, typically at line
voltage (e.g., 120V, 240V, or 480V), and the secondary winding provides the lower
voltage output for the control circuit.
Control transformers are typically designed with a high turns ratio, which means there are significantly more turns in the primary winding than in the secondary winding. This allows for voltage reduction while maintaining the required power level for the control circuit. The specific turns ratio depends on the desired output voltage and the input voltage of the control devices.
Some control transformers have additional features such as multiple taps on the
secondary winding, which allow for different output voltage options, or built-in fuses or circuit breakers for protection against overloads and short circuits.
It's worth noting that control transformers are different from power transformers,
which are used to step up or step down voltage for power distribution purposes.
Control transformers are specifically designed for control circuits and have lower
power ratings compared to power transformers.
