FUNCTIONAL DEVICES INC / RIB TR50VA015 Class 2 Transformer 24vac 50 Va 1 Ph

Functional Devices TR50VA015 Class 2 transformer is commonly employed in low-voltage control applications like HVAC, building automation and industrial settings to facilitate the safe and efficient conversion of higher voltage to a lower.

Working Mechanism:

• This current transformer operates on the principle of electromagnetic induction.
• When alternating current (AC) flows through the primary conductor, a magnetic field is generated around it.
• This magnetic field induces a voltage in the secondary winding, following Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction.
• The induced voltage is then converted into a proportional secondary current using external circuitry.
• The resulting secondary current is employed for accurate measurement and monitoring, commonly in applications like power meters and protection systems.
