Overview

The Hammond Power HPS Enclosed Control Transformer, SKU C2E0250PR, is a 250VA, single-phase transformer designed for control circuits in industrial and commercial panels. It accepts dual primary voltages of 120V or 240V (parallel/series configuration) and delivers a stable 24V secondary output at 50/60Hz. The transformer features copper windings, a NEMA Type 1 metal enclosure, and terminal block connections for secure wiring. With an 80°C temperature rise and 130°C insulation class, it handles continuous operation reliably. It supports load inrush up to 480VA at 5% voltage drop, 735VA at 10%, and 975VA at 15%, with full-load losses of 29W. Ideal for powering relays, solenoids, and control devices in machine tools, HVAC systems, and automation panels. The enclosure provides protection against dust and light splashing, meeting NEMA Type 1 requirements. Designed for durability, the transformer’s construction resists corrosion and mechanical stress, making it suitable for harsh industrial environments.
  • High inrush and continuous operation design handles relays, solenoids, contactors, and timers.
  • Copper-wound coils, durable insulation, and silicon steel laminations deliver stable, consistent voltage and long life.
  • Welded core and base construction ensure mechanical strength and easy installation.
  • Vacuum-impregnated coils improve thermal performance and protection.
