The 187C120 is the highest-voltage C-frame single-primary model in the ordering table: a 120 V center-tapped secondary at 0.1 A, rated 12 VA. It belongs to the 187 series of chassis-mount, low-voltage power transformers, which run on 50/60 Hz and suit OEM engineers and panel builders who need a fixed step-down secondary with a center tap. If you need a dual 115/230 VAC primary with the same secondary, the ordering table pairs this part with the 186C120.
Construction is an economical open-style channel frame for chassis mounting. Split bobbin construction removes the need for an electrostatic shield, insulation is Class B (130 °C), and temperature rise is designed not to exceed Class A for longer life. Combination solder or quick connect terminals allow either soldered leads or quick connect wiring.
In the C-size frame, the 187C120 measures 2.81 in (71 mm) long, 1.37 in (35 mm) deep not including terminals (1.73 in (44 mm) to the terminal), and 1.62 in (41 mm) high, with 2.37 in (60 mm) mounting centers. Shipping weight is 0.49 lbs (0.22 kg).
The series is hi-pot tested to 2 KV RMS, UL listed (# E207860) Type 3AH and CSA Certified. This part is listed as RoHS and REACH compliant.
Ideal For
- Chassis-mounted 120V center-tapped supplies from a 115 VAC line
- OEM equipment power sections needing a 50/60 Hz step-down transformer
- Builds wired with solder or quick connect terminals
- Designs rated around 12 VA
