Product Description:
Danaher manufactures the Q217U-2. With its dual-input voltage design, the Q217U-2 transformer from Danaher's POWERSTAT series may receive 480 volts or 240 volts as its principal input. This dual compatibility is a purposeful engineering solution for worldwide compatibility and decreased system-level complexity, not just a convenience. Multiple input voltage channels reduce system losses and increase overall energy efficiency by doing away with the requirement for external voltage conversion components. Internally, tap selection techniques and winding layouts that enable exact voltage alignment with source characteristics provide this versatility. The Q217U-2 facilitates cross-regional deployment by enabling direct integration into industrial facilities with different grid standards, negating the requirement for upstream electrical infrastructure modification or reconfiguration.
Its electromagnetic architecture also supports input frequencies from 60 Hz to 1500 Hz; this range surpasses conventional utility requirements and penetrates high-frequency operating regions. A magnetic core with low hysteresis and eddy current losses across a large spectrum range is required for this high frequency tolerance, necessitating careful material selection and core shape. Core losses at high frequencies are reduced by using high-permeability laminated steel or sophisticated ferrite composites, which also preserve thermal stability and magnetic saturation margins. Because of this, the transformer is especially well-suited for systems that use pulse-modulated AC sources, high-speed induction equipment, or variable frequency motors, where the operating frequency deviates much from the nominal 60 Hz norm. The performance of the transformer across this range also suggests a high-quality insulating system that can survive fast magnetic field cycling and voltage transients without degrading.
In single-phase and three-phase configurations, the Q217U-2 provides programmable output voltages between 0 and 480 volts and 0 and 240 volts, respectively. A variable winding tap system provides the flexibility, enabling accurate secondary voltage adjustment to satisfy load-specific needs. It highlights its thermal design margins and conductor size to enable sustained current flow by supporting a continuous load current of 5.0 amperes under constant current settings and extending to 5.5 amperes at 480V and 7.0 amperes at 240V under constant impedance load conditions. A design that balances resistive and reactive load needs is shown by the transformer's power output ratings, which range from 2.1 to 3.4 kVA for constant current applications and from 2.9 to 3.5 kVA for constant impedance loads. The Q217U-2 ensures long-term operating dependability even in high-demand or transitory situations by strictly limiting conductor temperature increase and magnetic flux density, with a maximum permitted output current of 6.3 amperes.
