The
standard method of mounting toroidal transformers to a
chassis is with a dished steel washer, with the
transformer interposed between cushioning gaskets, with
this hardware held in place by a single bolt passed
through the central hole of the toroid. These mounting
kits are supplied with standard transformers. For other
mounting options, please see the custom
transformers.
Caution: The metal chassis should
not touch both ends of the mounting bolt. This causes a
shorted turn, which would overheat the transformer
rapidly and cause its destruction. |
