## Datasheet

📄 [Download PDF](https://novapart.co/datasheet/farnell:4209713/)

Safety isolating transformer **VB 0,5/1/12** 

## Advantages 

Minimum size at high output Inherently short-circuit proof Dual output voltage for series or parallel connection Designed for high ambient temperatures 

Permanent corrosion protection, high insulation value and maximum electrical reliability due to XtraDenseFill resin encapsulation Self-extinguishing potting material 

## Applications 

As a mains transformer for adjustment of the voltage and simple electrical isolation. 

As a safety isolating transformer for the safe electrical isolation of the input and output sides. The transformer is suitable for creating SELV and PELV circuits because of the limit on the output voltage.
