Product Description:
Danaher manufactures the Q117U-3. A precisely manufactured variable autotransformer, the Danaher Q117U-3 POWERSTAT Transformer is intended to function in a three-phase Wye electrical system. By establishing a set phase displacement of 120 electrical degrees between each of the three voltage waveforms, this Wye arrangement helps balanced networks minimize circulating currents and distribute loads symmetrically. The performance of linked equipment is directly impacted by the stabilization of line-to-line and line-to-neutral voltages, which is largely dependent on the common neutral point inherent in Wye topologies. This transformer is designed to be integrated into industrial settings where sensitive automation systems, inverters, and three-phase motors need a coordinated, steady power supply.
At a nominal frequency of 60 Hz, this device is rated to handle a main voltage of 240V AC. In order to provide effective magnetic coupling and low hysteresis losses at the specified frequency, the electromagnetic core and winding shape are tuned for this input condition. Operating over the 60 Hz standard may result in saturation of the magnetic core, increased eddy current losses, and inefficient voltage transformation. Frequency has a direct impact on the rate of core magnetization and, therefore, the size of induced voltage. Through brush mechanisms, the contact point on the windings is physically adjusted, changing the effective turns ratio in real time to produce continuous output voltage fluctuation from 0 to 240V. For process control applications that need voltage fine-tuning, including motor speed management or laboratory testing of AC equipment, this adjustable output is crucial.
The Q117U-3 transformer is designed to withstand a variety of industrial load circumstances without experiencing thermal overrun, with a continuous current rating of 10 Amperes and a maximum of 13 Amperes under constant impedance loading. Its performance envelope under various operating regimes is quantified by the corresponding apparent power capacities, which are 4.2 kVA for constant current loads and 5.4 kVA for constant impedance loads. These numbers represent the actual load that the transformer can withstand without going beyond design thermal limitations, taking into consideration the vector connection between voltage and current in AC systems. Because of its panel-mount design and three-wire, neutral-less input and output configuration, it may be easily installed in strictly controlled automation panels where uniformity of wiring, safety, and space are crucial. This setup ensures safe and effective system integration by informing of the necessary grounding schemes and load compatibility.
