The Hammond 166F120 is a 36 VA transformer with a 115 V 60 Hz primary and a 120 VAC center-tapped secondary rated 0.3 A. Part of the 166 Series of economical single-primary, low-voltage/filament transformers, it is an open-style, chassis-mount design aimed at OEM engineers, electronics designers and repair technicians who need a small, fixed low-voltage AC source inside equipment.
Construction uses a dual bobbin design, so no electrostatic shield is required. Insulation is Class B (130 °C) for extra protection, and the transformer is UL listed as a Class A (105 °C) design. Each unit is Hi-Pot tested at 2,000 V RMS, and the series is UL listed and CSA certified. The 166F120 is also listed as RoHS and REACH compliant.
The 166F120 drawing gives overall dimensions of A 3.69 in / 93.7 mm, B 1.88 in / 47.8 mm and C 2.31 in / 58.7 mm, with a hole-to-hole mounting dimension (D) of 3.13 in / 79.5 mm and 0.187 in / 4.7 mm mounting holes. Shipping weight is 1.5 lbs (0.68 kg). Mounting is by an open-style channel bracket with two holes for chassis mounting, and the transformer is supplied with minimum 6" long leads.
The primary is rated 115 VAC, 60 Hz. For 117/234 V or 50/60 Hz operation, or for dual secondaries, the manufacturer points to its 266 Series. The drawing identifies black (BLK) primary leads, green (GRN) secondary leads and a green/yellow (GRN/YEL) center-tap lead.
