Product Description
The Siemens SITAS 4AM5242-5FT10-0FA0 is a 630 VA single-phase control transformer that steps down 500 V primary to 230 V secondary for industrial control circuits. Designed for installations operating on 500 V mains — common in mining, heavy industry, and certain regional power systems — it delivers 2.74 A continuous with 2350 VA short-term capacity, reliably powering contactor coils, relays, and PLC power supplies.
Key Features
- 500 V primary with ±5% taps (475/500/525 V) accommodates supply voltage variations in 500 V mains systems
- 2350 VA short-term capacity (3.7× nominal) handles high inrush from contactor coils and relay banks
- Low inrush current design simplifies primary-side protection coordination
- Compact EI 150/48 core: 152 × 144 × 110 mm footprint
- 50/60 Hz dual-frequency operation for global industrial power compatibility
- IP00 open-type construction for enclosed panel or cabinet mounting
