Frequently Asked Questions

What is a control transformer and what are its other names?

A control transformer is an isolation transformer designed for secondary voltage stability during overload. It's also known as a Machine Tool Transformer, Industrial Control Transformer, or Control Power Transformer.

How is the VA requirement calculated for a transformer?

When selecting the VA requirement for a transformer, you use the Secondary Voltage.

Does a control transformer regulate the output voltage?

No, a control transformer does not regulate voltage. The output voltage is solely determined by the coil's turn ratio and the input voltage.

What is the benefit of vacuum impregnation on HPS Control Transformers?

Vacuum impregnation with "VT Polyester resin" seals the surface, eliminates moisture, provides a strong mechanical bond, and protects from environmental conditions.

What does the VA or Volt Ampere Output rating signify?

The VA rating designates the output a transformer can deliver at its rated secondary voltage and frequency without exceeding its specified temperature rise.

What happens if a transformer is continually overloaded?

Continual overloading causes excessive heat, leading to insulation breakdown and a shortened transformer lifespan.

What are the requirements for overcurrent protection on control circuit transformers?

North American standards require overcurrent protection. Options include a device in the primary circuit or devices in both primary and secondary circuits.

What standards do HPS Imperator Series Control Transformers meet?

HPS Imperator Series Control Transformers meet or exceed standards established by UL, IEC, and NEMA.

What is the VA range for HPS Imperator transformers?

The VA range for HPS Imperator transformers is from 50VA to 1500VA.

What is the recommended power factor for sizing a control transformer?

It is recommended that a control transformer be sized at a 40% Power Factor for accurate sizing with various loads.
