RS PRO 1 Phase 1.2 kVA Variac, 240 V ac, 5 A


If you're looking for a portable variac electrical transformer, consider this single-phase RS PRO model featuring a single winding. Ultra-efficient, you'll find it offers no waveform distortion, a smooth linear output and overload capacity to ensure safety. Unlike transformers with two windings, it has low leakage reactance and its enclosed construction makes it compact and lightweight.

The unit's low operating torque and low magnetising current provide superb regulation while its silver-plated commutator enables the transformer to reverse electrical connections. It has a continuously variable alternating current output voltage, operating with a primary voltage rating of 240 V AC.

This unit is part of RS PRO's 'Varivolt' range of transformers. You'll find these devices used for power transmission and distribution, power conversions and audio systems both at home and at work. It complies with RoHS (Restriction of Hazardous Substances) so it contains minimal hazardous materials.
