1-Phase Buck/Boost Transformer – Larson Electronics 208V to 240V 23.4A

Description

Product Overview

The Larson Electronics 1-Phase Buck Boost transformer is engineered to provide a reliable step‑up conversion from a 208 V primary source to a 240 V secondary output, supporting continuous currents up to 23.4 A. Constructed with a high‑grade silicon steel core and copper windings, the unit delivers superior magnetic efficiency and low‑loss performance across the full 50/60 Hz frequency range. Its enclosure meets NEMA 4 rating standards, offering protection against dust, water, and corrosion, making it suitable for harsh industrial environments. The transformer measures 21 × 21 × 11 inches and weighs 25 lb, a compact footprint that eases mounting in confined panels or equipment racks. Designed for single‑phase operation, the device incorporates built‑in surge protection and thermal monitoring to safeguard downstream equipment and maintain consistent voltage regulation under variable load conditions.

Usage

This transformer excels in a variety of industrial and commercial applications where a stable 240 V supply is required but only a 208 V source is available. Typical installations include manufacturing plants that operate heavy‑duty machinery, data centers powering server racks, HVAC systems needing precise voltage control, and laboratory equipment that demands clean, isolated power. The unit’s compact design allows it to be mounted on wall panels, inside control cabinets, or integrated into custom power distribution units. Because the transformer provides electrical isolation between input and output, it reduces the risk of ground loops and electromagnetic interference, enhancing the reliability of sensitive electronic devices. It is also well‑suited for retrofit projects where upgrading existing infrastructure to meet newer voltage standards is necessary without extensive rewiring.
