Transformer TPZ 6 2*115/2*12 V 16012-8996

TPZ 6 transformer is a component designed to power electrical and electronic devices, especially those mounted on printed circuit boards. It is a safety transformer, which means it provides additional insulation and protection against electric shock. Using it in circuits increases the safety of using connected devices.

The transformer's construction is based on primary and secondary windings with voltages of 115 V and 12 V respectively. The rated power is 6 VA, making it suitable for powering small loads. Compact dimensions (44 mm wide, 53 mm high and 22 mm deep) and the possibility of PCB mounting make it easy to integrate into various electronic projects. The lack of a toroidal core translates to a simpler construction and potentially lower cost.

Features and applications

This transformer is primarily used in devices requiring safe and reliable power at 12V AC. Thanks to the insulation material class B, it provides good thermal resistance and long-term operation. Its construction allows easy connection of wires on both the primary side (1-3, 5-7) and the secondary side (10-12, 14-16), which facilitates connection to the circuit. The IP00 protection class indicates no protection against the ingress of solids or liquids - therefore, the transformer should be used in dry and well-ventilated places.

Compliance with PN EN 61558-2-4 and PN EN 61558-2-6 standards confirms its safety and compliance with European standards. Being designed as a safety transformer is particularly important in applications where high galvanic isolation between the primary and secondary circuit is required - this protects the user from accidental contact with dangerous voltage. The impossibility of short circuit further increases the safety of using the device.
