Product Description

The Siemens SITAS 4AM4842-5MT10-0FA0 is a 500 VA single-phase control transformer that steps down 690 V primary to 230 V secondary — specifically designed for heavy industry, mining, and large-scale process plants where 690 V three-phase mains is the standard supply voltage. It delivers 2.17 A continuous with 2000 VA short-term capacity, reliably powering contactor coils, relays, and control electronics at the 230 V control level.

Key Features

  • 690 V primary with ±5% taps (655/690/725 V) accommodates supply voltage variations in heavy industrial 690 V mains systems
  • 2000 VA short-term capacity (4× nominal) handles high inrush from contactor coils and relay banks
  • Low inrush current design simplifies primary-side protection coordination
  • Compact EI 120/72 core: 122 × 121 × 134 mm footprint
  • 50/60 Hz dual-frequency operation for global industrial power compatibility
  • IP00 open-type construction for enclosed panel or cabinet mounting

Applications

This transformer is purpose-built for supplying 230 V control circuits in heavy industrial environments operating on 690 V mains — common in mining operations, steel mills, cement plants, large pump stations, and heavy process industries. The 690 V primary is derived from the phase-to-phase voltage of 400 V three-phase systems, making this the direct-control transformer choice for motor control centers in these demanding environments. The ±5% adjustable primary taps ensure stable 230 V output even with mains voltage fluctuations typical in heavy industrial power networks.
