    Help with Transformer ID

    I have a ton of transformers from old supplies and such, but I have no idea how to ID what they are i.e current capacity and such.

    All the markings I see on top of them Google returns nothing. is there a way to ID these things that I have not found or figured out yet?

    ThaNks!

      is it ok to replace a dual output transformer with two single output transformers?
      by amelbye
      Hi, some prestory: I was repairing an amplifier - a "Phil Jones Bass". It had some bad capacitors an a faulty power switch. Easy job. However upon putting it back together I screwed up. The connector from the 15V-0V-15V from the transformer is identical to the audio ouput from the preamp board to the poweramp board. I ended up putting +-15VAC into the preamp outputs frying some traces on the circuit board along with the power transformer The transformer is shorted. It blows the fuse immediately even with no load on the secondary.

      Now that's a challenge - luckily...

      Original Xbox 1.0 PSU: Foxlink FTPS-0002 Rev. B. — 12 V low, 5 V high — transformer?
      by ohren
      Hello!

      I'm looking at an original Xbox PSU: Foxlink ftps-0002 rev. B. The 12 V output is too low, and the 5 V output is too (?) high. Unfortunately I don't have an oscilloscope but only a DMM for diagnosis.

      Measured voltages with no load:

      After rectifier diodes
      12V: 6.17 V
      5V: 5.67 V

      Secondary transformer pins AC measurement (really don't know if this says anything)
      12V: 2-2.5 V
      5V: 1.04 V


      I also have another (working) Xbox psu from Delta. The same measures there, in order, being: 10.79,...

      Is it possible for transformer substitution?
      by mikey5791
      Hi all,
      Got this local made DC power supply (12/14V) given free as the transformer has melted. There is no marking or indication to identify what type or rating of transformer used.
      Fyi,. I had a busted autogate mainboard with transformer with marking 13-0-13 . Is this the 13v dc type transformer?
      My questions are
      1. How do i test to see if the transformer is in good working condition?
      2. Can this transformer (marking 13-0-13) be used to replace the melted transformer on the DC power supply?
      Hope you guys understand what i was asking. My intention is...

      3PHASE STEP-DOWN Transformer in Check
      by dennis_elx33
      Hello All,

      i would like to post an interesting topic regarding 3-phase stepdown transformer which we suspect to cause an overcurrent (138A) which resulted to power tripped off of the HV power supply (80KV output).


      Problem statement: Power tripped Off

      Initial Problem: Found 2 IGBT and 2 rectifier diodes shorted (burnt).

      Action Done:
      1) Replaced the faulty parts with good spare.
      2) Measured impedance of the 3phase input lines and found that L2 to L3 has 23.3ohm while other pairs are 51Kohm. This pins will...
