Acme T181056 Buck-boost Transformer 0.150 Kva

Product Description

The ACME T181056 is a buck-boost transformer rated at 0.150 KVA, designed to make small voltage corrections in single-phase electrical distribution systems. Buck-boost transformers step voltage up or down by a fixed percentage rather than providing full isolation, making them well suited for correcting low or high line voltage conditions that affect motor performance, lighting, and sensitive control equipment. At 7 pounds and compact dimensions, this unit is sized for panel-mount or enclosure installations where space is limited. Licensed electricians are the primary installers of this type of transformer in commercial and light-industrial applications.

This transformer is used in applications where line voltage deviates from equipment nameplate ratings by a small margin. Common install scenarios include boosting 208-volt lines to 230 volts for motor loads, or bucking 240-volt supplies down to match 208-volt equipment ratings. It is appropriate for residential, commercial, and light-industrial electrical systems where a compact, low-KVA correction device is required.

Key Features

• 0.150 KVA capacity for small-load voltage correction applications
• Buck-boost configuration provides precise fixed-percentage voltage adjustment
• Compact enclosure at 3.670 inches x 3.890 inches x 7.160 inches for tight-space installations
• Lightweight at 7 pounds for easier panel and enclosure mounting

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-install buck-boost transformer for single-phase voltage correction circuits in residential, commercial, and light-industrial electrical distribution systems.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC) and all applicable local codes. Disconnect and lock out all power to the circuit before handling or wiring the transformer. Verify input and output voltage tap configurations match the application requirements before energizing. Do not exceed the rated KVA load capacity of the unit.
