Overview

The Hammond Power FG4 Fused Finger Guard Kit (SKU: FG4) is designed to enhance safety and functionality for HPS control transformers. This accessory provides essential protection against accidental contact with live components. The FG4 is specifically compatible with 250 VA transformers featuring MBMH, MGJ, and MLI suffixes. It also fits 350 VA and 500 VA transformers across all suffixes, and 750 VA transformers with AJ, AR, MQMJ, QR, SP, and PP suffixes. Each kit includes one fused finger guard and the PHAK1 instruction sheet for straightforward installation. When installed, the finger guard adds approximately 0.38 inches to the overall depth of transformers from 50 VA to 500 VA, and 0.31 inches for units from 750 VA to 2000 VA. The fused finger guard design offers an additional layer of safety by incorporating fuse protection, further safeguarding sensitive circuitry. Consult the compatibility chart for your specific transformer model and VA rating to ensure proper fitment. The FG4 is a direct replacement or addition for enhancing existing HPS control transformer setups, providing peace of mind and operational reliability.
