Product Description:
Danaher manufactures the Q217U-3. A single-phase variable autotransformer designed for 240V root mean square (RMS) input at a typical utility frequency of 60Hz is the Danaher Q217U-3 POWERSTAT Transformer. The input frequency of the transformer indicates the number of full electrical oscillations per second, which takes into consideration the sinusoidal character of alternating current. The transformer's magnetic flux behavior inside the laminated core is supported by this electrical standard, which also guarantees compatibility with North American industrial power systems. The main input terminal's phase alignment and voltage stability are essential for reducing core losses and maximizing the effectiveness of magnetic coupling between windings.
One of the Q217U-3's unique features is its continuous variable output voltage range of 0 to 240V, which is accomplished using a sliding brush mechanism that moves over the autotransformer winding. With this arrangement, the secondary voltage may be dynamically adjusted without requiring a change in the main side's active coil turns. Fine electrical tuning is made possible by the mechanical interface, which is a 317.5-degree control knob that allows high-resolution manipulation of the voltage gradient between the output terminals. This function is particularly helpful in high-precision settings where process integrity requires precise management of incremental voltage alterations, such as variable-speed motor controllers, automated test equipment (ATE) sets, and calibration labs.
In terms of electrical performance, the unit can produce up to 6.3 amperes of current while the impedance load is constant. The maximum load that the transformer can withstand without going over its thermal and magnetic saturation limits is indicated by this rating. The thermal design of the transformer, which includes the ventilation, conductor gauge, and core cross-section, guarantees the safe dissipation of heat produced by I²R losses at full load. The unit's functional stability is further improved by the controlled output characteristic, which reduces voltage variations brought on by input fluctuations. This is important in situations where the susceptibility of downstream equipment to transient circumstances or voltage ripple might affect system dependability or create error states. Because of this, the Q217U-3 provides dependable, precisely regulated AC power for a wide range of industrial and metrological applications.
