Toroidal transformers are electrical transformers characterised by their donut-shaped (toroidal) magnetic core, typically made of ferrite or wound silicon steel. These transformers are built to step up or step down AC voltages in a range of electrical and electronic devices. Unlike traditional laminated transformers, the windings of a toroidal transformer are evenly distributed around the entire core, resulting in a more efficient magnetic circuit.
Why Buy Toroidal Transformers?
Toroidal transformers offer several advantages. They are lightweight, compact, durable, flexible, easy to install, and highly efficient, resulting in absolute energy savings. The ring-shaped core of a toroidal transformer minimises leakage flux, EMI (electromagnetic interference), and noise. Additionally, the need for less wiring and mounting space significantly translates to reduced installation costs and improved durability, making them a wise investment.
View Our Range of Best-in-Class Toroidal Transformers:
Our extensive collections include high-performance toroidal transformers––the perfect solution for your power conversion needs:
- Open Toroidal Transformers – These transformers feature an exposed core and windings, allowing efficient heat dissipation. They offer flexibility in mounting and connection options. An open toroidal transformer is best used in applications that have good ventilation and are not in harsh environments.
- Encapsulated Toroidal Transformers – Encapsulated transformers are encased in a protective resin or epoxy material. They provide enhanced durability and protection against environmental factors like moisture, dust, and mechanical stress. The encapsulation of an encapsulated toroidal transformer also improves safety by isolating the windings and core.
Typical Uses of Toroidal Power Transformers:
Toroidal transformers are utilised in several low-KVA rated electronic and electrical devices and applications, including:
- Audio Equipment
- Medical Devices
- Industrial Control Systems
- Renewable Energy Systems
- Lighting Systems
- Welding Machines & Inverters
- Electronic Circuits
- Power Supplies.
