The 170DE is a 500VA enclosed, hard wired autotransformer for electricians, facilities teams and OEM engineers who need a voltage change between 115VAC and 230VAC. It steps down from 230VAC to 115VAC or steps up from 115VAC to 230VAC, with 50 or 60 Hz operation for flexible worldwide applications.
As a single-winding design the 170DE does not provide isolation; it is intended for equipment that is already isolated where only the voltage needs to change. It does not convert line frequency.
- Totally enclosed rear case with a handy internal grounding bolt
- Extra vacuum varnish for use in high humidity
- Rear mounted standard 115VAC, 3-wire receptacle, supplied but not wired
- Enclosed case with convenient knockouts and two included cable clamps for easy wire connections
