Overview

The Hammond Power SP50PR is a 50 kVA open-style control transformer designed for general-purpose industrial and light-duty loads. This unit features a 120x240V primary voltage and a 12x24V secondary voltage, operating at 50/60 Hertz. Constructed with high-quality silicon steel laminations, it ensures optimal performance and reliability. The encapsulated coils are protected by a custom injection-molded cover, shielding them and terminations from moisture, dirt, and airborne contaminants common in industrial settings. Equipped with robust, welded heavy steel mounting feet for superior strength and a compact design, the SP50PR offers easy installation. Terminations utilize combination slot/Phillips #6 screws suitable for 18 AWG to 14 AWG solid or 14 AWG stranded wire. Standard SEMS washers are included on all units, and standard secondary fuse kits utilizing 13/32” x 1 1/2” midget/type CC fuse clips are also supplied. Optional primary fuse kits and finger-safe terminal covers are available. This transformer is built to the 600V class standard and offers a temperature rise of 55°C with an insulation class of 130°C.
