Overview

The Hammond Power HPS Enclosed Control Transformer (SKU: C2E1500NJ) is a 1.5kVA, single-phase transformer engineered for industrial and commercial control circuits. It converts a 277V primary input to a 120V secondary output at 50/60Hz, with a temperature rise of 80°C and an insulation class rating of 130°C. The transformer utilizes copper windings for enhanced efficiency and durability, paired with terminal block terminations for both primary and secondary connections to ensure secure and reliable power delivery with minimal voltage drop. At a 5% voltage drop, it supports a load of 4905VA; at 10%, it handles 8780VA; and at 15%, it accommodates up to 12500VA. The unit operates with a full load power loss of 79.9W, optimizing energy efficiency. The NEMA Type 1 enclosure provides basic protection against dust and non-hazardous indoor environments, ensuring safe operation in standard conditions. Measuring 151.89mm in height, 165.7mm in width, and 223.2mm in depth, the transformer weighs 15.1kg, making it compact yet robust for installation in control panels and automation systems. Its design is ideal for control power distribution in machinery, automation systems, and panel applications where a stable 120V control voltage is required from a 277V source, ensuring consistent performance in demanding industrial settings.
  • 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.
  • Supports 4905VA at 5% voltage drop, 8780VA at 10%, and 12500VA at 15% voltage drop
