Power TransformersA power transformer is an electrical device that converts an alternating voltage and current to the required value. The operation of the device is based on the effect of electromagnetic induction, appearing in the windings, resulting in these current parameters increase or decrease, depending on the configuration of the device.

Three-Phase Transformers
Three-phase transformers are used for power supply from a 3-phase network. The windings of three-phase transformers are connected by a star or a triangle. Transformers allow lowering the mains voltage and simultaneously increasing the load current. Another reason for using three-phase transformers is the need to ensure continuity of current flow in the load. MORE

Ferroresonant TransformersThe ferroresonant transformer, originally designed to work as a voltage regulator, is a combination of two magnetic circuits with a weak coupling between them. The output circuit contains a parallel oscillatory circuit, fed from the primary circuit to compensate for the power entering the load. The ferroresonant transformer is capable of withstanding any overload. MORE
Toroidal Transformers
Toroidal transformers are built around a donut-shaped core, which, depending on operating frequency, is made from a long strip of silicon steel or permalloy wound into a coil, powdered iron, or ferrite. A strip construction ensures that the grain boundaries are optimally aligned, improving the transformer’s efficiency by reducing the core’s reluctance. MORE

Power InductorsInductors are electromagnetic devices that store energy in a magnetic field. Current flow through a coil or winding produces a magnetic field in a core of magnetic material such as steel. In DC circuits they are commonly used for filtering, allowing smooth d-c current flow while blocking a-c. In such applications they are sometimes called chokes. In AC MORE
EMAX Defender
The EMAX Defender line conditioners are based on ferroresonant technology, and offer all the ruggedness, transient reduction and electrical isolation advantages of traditional ferro designs. But they’re designed around an innovative dual magnetic topology, which facilitates what we call Optimum Regulation. MORE
