100V Line Transformer identity?
I have a RS components line transformer that dates from the 60's
Its part number is 21-773-1 RS have deleted their cross reference database. Can anyone please provide any information on this transformer. I think it has two 8ohm secondary windings labelled A-B and C-D. The primary has tags 1 2 3 4 5 Any help would be great. |

Re: Line Transformer identity
Hi Mike,
Does it look like those two? Data sheet available from Electrocomponents, paer number R/N35A002F. Hope this helps. Stef.

Re: Line Transformer identity
The OP refers to a "line" transformer. I wonder if he means a 100V line transformer or an output transformer?

with 100V transformers, they look very similar.

Re: RS line transformer identity
A photo of the transformer would help.

Re: RS line transformer identity
By 'line transformer' do you mean power transformer or line output transformer?

Re: Line Transformer identity
Or even 100 Volt Line Transformer?

Re: Line Transformer identity
Hello,
Looking at my Radiospares catalogue for Aug-Nov 1970, there is a "100V line" matching transformer at 24/- (shillings!). This was before Radiospares became RS Components and adopted a part numbering system. The transformer has four primary taps to deliver l, 2, 5 or 10 Watts and the secondary has taps to feed 3 or 15 Ohm speakers: A B C & D. If anyone has an early RS catalogue, I suspect this transformer will have the part number you mention. Regards, Dazzlevision |

Re: Line Transformer identity
Thank you for all of your help.
It would appear to be the 100v matching transformer with a maximum output of 10 watts. This is lower than what I require but I have now been given a Reslo 100v line transformer . Part no LT202 which I hope may have a larger wattage tapping. I have just repaired a Vortexion 50w amplifier and basically I am looking for a 100v transformer that will provide 50watts into 8ohm for a junior school project. |

Re: 100V Line Transformer identity?
I may have transformer from a (quite new) scrapped PA amp; it is 'transistor output stage' to 4 Ohm-70V line-100V line. I'd assume the power amp circuit which fed it was 4-8 Ohm output impedance; looks 50 Watts-ish. Any use? if it is £5 + P&P and it's yours.

Re: 100V Line Transformer identity?
If HiFi isn't a requirement, an ordinary 115V + 115V to 12V + 12V mains transformer will do well enough. A 50VA one like this:
http://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/chassi...rmers/0504256/ Primaries in parallel, secondaries in series for ~ 100:20 volts.

Re: 100V Line Transformer identity?
Those 100v line amplifiers are not intended to just power 1 speaker as you are with say, 50 watts they are for use with several speakers each with their own transformer running at 10 watts max.

Re: 100V Line Transformer identity?
Does anyone recognise a Reslo 100v line transformer .Part no LT202.
It has two terminals on one side marked A B On the other side are four screw terminals marked 1 2 3 4 |

Re: 100V Line Transformer identity?
Are you sure this is a 100V line transformer? Reslosound made microphone matching transformers with an LMT prefix.

Re: 100V Line Transformer identity?
I am told that this came out of a loudspeaker cabinet.
In actual fact I have been given two with the possibility of making two cabinets to get the required 50 watts. I assume the A B terminals would be connected to the L/S and the 1234 provide the 100v tapping? |

Re: 100V Line Transformer identity?
That sounds most likely. Usually the speaker side has connections for various speaker impedances and the line side has connections for various power levels.
