Toroidal Transformers

Your AC Transformers FAQ

Toroidal Transformers are transformers which visually appear much like aToroidal Transformers doughnut, featuring a torus surface.  Torus is a Latin word for a cushion shaped like a doughnut.  The shape of Toroidal Transformers is produced by a coil of insulated wire which revolves circularly around an axis, external to the circle.  If you were to look at a cross section of a toroidal transformer, however, the core may also appear rectangular in addition to round.  Now that we know what toroidal transformers look like, how do they work and what differentiates them from other transformers?

The core of Toroidal Transformers is really what makes this highly efficient transformer special.  Constructed like a tightly wound clock, a ribbon of steel is tightly wound around the core which results in molecules which are all aligned in the direction of the flux.  The material used in the core of Toroidal Transformers can determine weight and size reductions of up to fifty percent, depending on power ratings.  Some of the many benefits offered by high-performance toroidal transformers include the following:

  • Smaller sizing.

  • Easily mountable and installable.Toroidal Transformers

  • Lower weight.

  • Flexibility of dimensions.

  • Magnetic circuits which virtually eliminate air gaps.

  • Lower core loss.

  • Off-load magnetized current.

  • Lower leakage inductance.

  • Lower stray flux field.

  • Lower operational noise.

Today, Toroidal Transformers are a highly-efficient, cost-viable, power solution offering flexibility and great versatility to your specific power source applications.
