Can Buck Boost Transformers be used as isolation Transformers supplying low voltage such as 12V, 16V, 24V or 32V?
Issue:
Buck Boost Transformers used as standard Isolation Transformers
Product Line:
LV Transformers
Environment:
Applies to Low Voltage Transformers by SquareD/Schneider Electric
Cause:
Small Isolation Transformers with Low Voltage secondaries are often needed in certain applications
Resolution:
Yes. The `S43` series of Buck & Boost Transformers can be used for 120 - 12, 120 - 24, 240 - 12 or 240 -24 voltage applications. The `S46` series of Buck & Boost Transformers can be used for 120 - 16, 120 - 32, 240 - 16 or 240 - 32 voltage applications. The `S82` series of Buck & Boost Transformers can be used for 240 - 24, 240 - 48, 480 - 24 or 480 -48 voltage applications. In these applications, the nameplate kVA of the Buck & Boost Transformer must be equal to or greater than the load kVA. Connection instructions for this application are on the Transformer nameplate.
