Allient Power’s CPT, an Industrial Control Transformer, is specifically designed to reduce supply voltages to the control voltages necessary for the operation of loads such as electromagnetic commponents – contactors, solenoids, timers, and relays, among others. Also known as control power transformers, our CPTs accommodate the momentary current inrush caused when electromagnetic loads are energized at start up. Most electromagnetic loads require anywhere from 3-10 times their normal operating current for 30-50 milliseconds, Allient Power’s CPTs provide the secondary voltage stability required over that inrush period through an engineered coil winding configuaration.
Our CPTs meet or exceed the standards established by UL and cUL over the widest VA range in the industry. The rugged construction and quality electrical characteristics ensure reliable operation of electromagnetic devices and trouble-free performance.
Pending the need to increase or decrease input voltages, the CPT step-up and step-down transformers are dual frequency rated for 50/60 Hz and manufactured in a variety of configurations that range from 115 to 600 primary volts and from 23 to 240 secondary volts.
Product Features
- Enclosed coils completely encase the industrial control transformer coils against moisture, dirt, dust and industrial contaminants for maximum protection in industrial environments.
- Finger-safe terminals integrally built in. Up to 30% greater terminal contact area permits low-loss connections. Extra deep barriers reduce the chance of shorts from frayed leads or careless wiring.
- Terminals are molded into the industrial control transformers for a robust, compact design. A full quarter inch of thread on the 8-32 terminal screws prevents stripping and pullout.
- Mounting plate is heavy gauge steel to add strength to core construction and provide stability. Slotted mounting feet permit easy and flexible installation.
- Attractive black matte finish, easy-to-read label with complete wiring diagram.
- Two parallel jumper links come standard with all transformers, which can be wired for dual primary voltages.
Specifications
- Constructed with high quality silicon steel laminates to minimize core losses and increase performance and efficiency.
- Copper magnet wire of the highest quality assures efficient operation.
- Primary and secondary fusing options available in kits or factory installed.
