Among the most widely-used electronic components available today, single phase isolation transformers enable the use of numerous control circuit types, serving many industrial applications in the Antigo area. A defining attribute of this transformer is its core, the essential element in its design.
Core Types
Many core types are available to choose from:
Toroidal Core
A core with a tape-wound toroid design is a likely solution for instances where volume, weight, shape, noise or electromagnetic efficiency are high-priority challenges.
Laminated Core
For applications in industrial scenarios, EI laminated cores with Electrical grade steel are the most appropriate choice.
Solid Core
Single phase isolation transformers with a core of solid powdered ferrite or iron are best for high-frequency applications.
Cut E or C Cores
In applications calling for magnetizing current, low losses, high pulse permeability or exceptionally high flux density, a high-performance cut core with electrical steel could meet the demands.
Choosing a Core
While each of these cores plays a role in single phase isolation transformers, they also have their individual pros and cons. An optimized configuration for specific situations comprising geometry, construction and core material makes a big difference in cost and performance. Trained engineers can act as guides in selecting the best custom design for relevant needs.
