Overview

The ABB 9T51B0408 (SKU: 9T51B0408) is a single-phase, dry-type buck-boost transformer designed for precise voltage adjustment in industrial and commercial applications. This unit, manufactured by ABB Electrification, offers dual voltage primary and secondary windings, allowing for flexible voltage configurations. It is commonly used to buck (lower) or boost (raise) supply voltage by a small amount, typically between 5% and 27%, to correct minor voltage discrepancies and ensure sensitive equipment operates within optimal parameters. The transformer is rated for 1.5 kVA and operates at 60Hz. It features a compact design with dimensions of 11.13" (H) x 9.38" (W) x 6.75" (D) and an approximate net weight of 40 lbs. When field-connected as an autotransformer, the 9T51B0408 complies with NEC Article 210-9, Exception 1. Its dry-type, encapsulated construction enhances safety and durability for indoor or outdoor use. The transformer is UL Listed and CSA Certified, meeting stringent industry standards. Common applications include voltage correction for air conditioning, heating systems, induction motors, and low-voltage lighting. It can also be used to balance 120/240V three-wire circuits or derive a neutral on 240V two-wire circuits. The 9T51B0408 provides a cost-effective alternative to larger isolation transformers for voltage regulation needs. ABB Electrification ensures reliable performance in demanding electrical environments.
