The 126C is a 10K to 10K ohm tube driver interstage transformer for driver use only in single ended tube output amplifiers. It takes the place of a coupling capacitor circuit for improved sound and is the higher-impedance option in the 126 Series, suited to single ended designs whose driver tube wants a 10K load.
The 126C has an inductance of 106 henrys and a rated DC bias current of 15 mA, supported by a gapped core. Primary and secondary are each 10K ohms with 375 ohms DC resistance, and the unit is rated at 4 audio watts. Bifilar wound windings provide coupling and bandwidth, and the minimum frequency response is 20 Hz - 20 kHz (+/- 1 dB max, ref. 1 kHz).
The core is made from hi grade 29M6 silicon laminations. Maximum working voltage is 400 VDC and every unit is hi-pot tested at 1,000 VDC.
The 126C is closed style with leads at least 8 inches long. Dimensions are A 2.50 in (64 mm), B 3.12 in (79 mm), C 3.12 in (79 mm), D 2.00 in (51 mm) and E 2.25 in (57 mm), with 0.20 in (5 mm) x 0.38 in (10 mm) mounting slots. The series lists a unit weight of 3 lbs. 2 oz.; the shipping weight is listed as 1.2 lbs (0.54 kg). It is RoHS and REACH compliant.
