THE ADVANTAGES AND BENEFITS OF USING AMVECO TOROIDAL TRANSFORMERS On this page you can learn about the advantages and benefits of using our toroidal transformers. First we would like to list four features that are unique to AMVECO and its line of toroidal transformers. Four features that you will surely benefit from. • AMVECO is an ISO 9001 registered company • AMVECO’s transformers use only flameretardent material UL 94-V2 • AMVECO offers lifetime warranty for its products • AMVECO’s transformers are recognized to several UL standards and certified by CSA as well as TUV for medical applications. High Performance Products For Your High Performance Applications. SMALL SIZE Most toroids are smaller than their E-I transformer counterparts. Electrical and mechanical designers appreciate a toroid’s compact dimensions. They are particularly well suited where low height is a consideration. LOW WEIGHT Because they are more efficient, toroids can be up to 50% lighter, depending on power rating , than conventional laminated transformers. Low weight simplifies end product design by reducing mounting hardware and supporting enclosure requirements. LOW STRAY MAGNETIC FIELD Toroids have no airgaps primaries and secondaries are wound uniformly around the entire core. As a result, toroids emit very low radiated magnetic fields. This makes the toroid ideal for applications involving high sensitivity circuitry. LOW NO-LOAD LOSSES Compared to conventional E-I transformers, toroids exhibit extremely low no-load losses. In applications where a circuit is in a “stand-by” mode for long periods, the potential cost reduction for power can be significant, sometimes 80-90% lower. LOW MECHANICAL HUM The core of a toroid is formed from a single strip of grain-oriented electrical grade silicon steel tightly wound in the form of a clock spring with the ends spot-welded in place. The copper wire is wound over polyester film, forming a silent, stable unit without the use of environmentally unfriendly glues or varnishes. FLEXIBLE DIMENSIONS Compounding the benefits of low weight and small size is the flexibility to vary dimensions. Because AMVECO is not tied down to core caps or lamination sizes, the height and diameter of our toroids may be economically varied to accommodate equipment design requirements. HIGH EFFICIENCY Due to its unique construction, toroids are typically between 15 and 30% more efficient than the conventional type. As a rule the larger the transformer - the more efficient it becomes. LOW OPERATING TEMPERATURE Since most of the losses in a toroid are in the copperwire, the toroid cools off quicker than the conventional E-I type with more iron. At half the load, the toroid’s temperature rise is only about 30% of what it is at full load. EASY TO MOUNT A single center screw easily and quickly mounts the toroid, avoiding costly mechanical design and practical problems associated with conventional E-I-laminated transformers..., and three screws are eliminated at assembly! 1 AMVECO Magnetics, Inc. • 10401 Westoffice Dr. • Houston, TX 77042 • 800 527-7042 • 713 977-2500 • Fax 713 977-5031 • Email • TABLE OF CONTENTS Features, Advantages and Benefits of Toroidal Power Transformers Serving A Broad Range Of Industries Value Added Assembly Service Engineering Support Interactive Website Design Service Documented Reliability ISO 9001 And Safety Standards AMVECO Construction Data Technical Data And Application Notes 7-14 Reference Guide For Size And Losses Customer Specification Sheet Toroidal Mounting Methods 13-14 Considerations When Using Toroidal Power Transformers Standard Design Transformers For 117V/60Hz Applications Standard Design Transformers For 2x117V/50-60Hz Applications Standard Design Medical Grade High Isolation Transformers Custom Designed Auto-Transformers
