Appleton E150WA Control Transformer 150VA 240-120V

Product Description

The APPLETON E150WA is a heavy-duty control transformer rated at 150 VA with a primary voltage of 240x480 volts and a secondary output of 120 volts. It steps down line voltage to a standard 120-volt control circuit, making it a core component in industrial and commercial electrical control panels. Licensed electricians and controls technicians install this transformer when a dedicated, isolated low-voltage supply is needed to power contactors, relays, PLCs, and other control devices. The 150 VA capacity supports moderate control circuit loads while keeping secondary current within safe limits.

This transformer is suited for use in motor control centers, machine tool panels, HVAC equipment controls, and other industrial or commercial applications where reliable 120-volt control power must be derived from a 240-volt or 480-volt distribution source. It is a heavy-duty design intended for continuous-duty panel installations rather than intermittent residential use.

Key Features

• 150 VA rated capacity supports multiple control circuit loads simultaneously
• Dual primary voltage (240x480 volts) allows use on either common industrial distribution voltage
• 120-volt secondary output matches standard North American control circuit devices
• Heavy-duty construction suitable for continuous-duty industrial environments
• Compact form factor appropriate for panel-mount installation

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation control transformer for industrial and commercial electrical control panels requiring a 150 VA, 240x480-volt primary to 120-volt secondary step-down transformer.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electrical Code (NEC). De-energize and lock out the panel before connecting or replacing this transformer. Verify that the primary tap matches the available line voltage before energizing. Ensure the secondary circuit load does not exceed the 150 VA rating to prevent overheating.
