Overview

The Hammond Power DM020NJ is a 20 kVA three-phase drive isolation transformer designed for variable frequency drives (VFDs) and motor controllers. Built with copper windings for superior thermal performance and efficiency, this 600V-class transformer converts 575V primary to 230V secondary voltage, meeting the demands of industrial automation and power conversion systems. Its robust construction ensures reliable operation in harsh environments, including dust, vibration, and temperature extremes. The DM020NJ is UL-listed and CSA-certified, providing compliance with North American safety standards. Ideal for applications requiring voltage transformation and harmonic mitigation, this transformer supports both AC and DC variable speed drives with minimal voltage drop. Typical uses include HVAC systems, conveyor drives, and pump controls where clean power and isolation are critical. The transformer’s compact design and durable enclosure make it suitable for panel mounting or standalone installations. With a primary voltage of 575V (delta) and secondary of 230V (wye), it delivers consistent performance across a wide load range. Backed by Hammond Power’s 5-year warranty, the DM020NJ ensures long-term reliability for mission-critical industrial applications.
  • The separate primary and secondary windings provide electrical isolation between the incoming line and the SCR load.
  • The windings are designed to withstand overcurrent of 150% of the rated load for 60 seconds or 200% of the rated load for 30 seconds.
  • Drive Isolation Transformers are sized to match standard motor horsepower and voltage ratings. Standard sizes range from 5 to 600 HP in six standard voltages.
  • UL-listed and CSA-certified for North American compliance
  • Compact design for panel or standalone mounting
