When an electronic circuit requires constant voltage or constant
current with low power or
volt-amp rating, a control transformer comes into the picture.
Capacitors and other filtering
devices are used to reduce the variations in the output. As a
result, constant voltage or current
is obtained.
The transformer is based on the principle of electromagnetic
induction. The principle states
that a changing magnetic field within a coil of wire induces a
voltage across the ends of the coil
(electromagnetic induction). Changing the current in the primary
coil changes the magnetic flux
that is developed. In turn, the changing magnetic flux induces a
voltage in the secondary coil.
Thecontrol transformeris designed for industrial usage where
electromagnetic devices such as
relays and solenoids are used. These transformers maximize
inrush capability and output
voltage regulation when electromagnetic devices are primarily
energized.
These transformers include high-quality insulating materials.
This insulation provides electrical
protection to turn-to-turn windings, layer to layer windings,
primary to secondary windings and
ground. The transformers are vacuuming permeated with VT
polyester resin and oven-cured.
This seals the surface and eliminates moisture. Filling the
entire unit provides a strong
mechanical bond and offers protection from the environment.
Control Transformer is utilized in many industries and
applications including:
Motor Drives & Controls Induction Heating & Melting
Aviation Applications
Mining Equipment Power Supplies Marine Applications Heavy
Industry Medical Applications

The advantage of using a control transformer is the inherent
stability of the voltage supplied
from a transformer and its ability to handle extreme current
peaks. When the start button on a
motor starter is pushed and the contactor coil energizes, there
is a very brief (typically 30 to 50
milliseconds) surge in current demand known as an "inrush
current". This peak can surpass 10times the normal current flow,
and transformers handle these peaks far more competently
than a conventional supply.
Advantages:
Using a control transformer to supply control power provides a
lower, safer and moreefficient control circuit voltage to be used
in high working voltage applications.
The excellent inrush current handling characteristics of
transformer supplied power alsomakes for a more efficient power
supply.
The use of lower voltages in a control circuit provides the
workers using stop and startbuttons in hazardous environments with
safety.
For correct control transformer specification, three features of
the load circuit must be
determined in addition to the minimum voltage essential to
operate the circuit. These are- total
steady-state (sealed) VA, total inrush VA, and inrush load power
factor.
