Customer Questions & Answers
What are the dimensions, weight and construction materials of the Variac TDGC2-0.5KVA?
The approximate dimensions of the Variac are 160 mm x 130 mm x 130 mm and it weighs 3.5 kg. The chassis is metal, providing robustness and better heat dissipation. The transformer core and internal windings are made of silicon steel and standard enamelled copper used in the industry.
For which specific applications is this transformer not recommended, considering its current and voltage limits?
It is not recommended for equipment exceeding 2 A continuous consumption at 220-250 VAC (maximum power 500 VA). It is also not suitable for high inrush inductive loads such as large motors, industrial power tools, high-power ovens or three-phase systems. Using it beyond its limits may cause overheating and damage.
How should the Variac TDGC2-0.5KVA be connected and installed correctly to ensure safety and proper operation?
It should be installed on a stable, well-ventilated surface. The input is connected to 220 VAC via fork-type terminals (not included). The variable output is taken from the front panel terminals. It is advisable to use connectors and cables rated at least 2.5 mm² (minimum 2 x 2.5 mm²) and protect the input with a suitable fuse (2.5-3 A). The user must ensure the specified load is not exceeded and that all connections are secure.
What maintenance does this Variac require, and how is it handled if spare parts are needed?
The Variac requires regular dust cleaning, checking of connections and inspection of the brush to ensure proper contact. It is not sealed against dust/water (IP not specified). If the brush or fuses fail, they should be replaced with equivalent references, usually available as spare parts. Internal repair is not recommended without knowledge, as it involves electrical risk.
