Beleeb 20Amp Variable Transformer Auto AC Voltage Regulator Power Supply, 2000VA Max, 0~130 Volt Output
a variable AC input to a transformer input DC bridge rectifier to produce a variable output
The adjustable voltage transformers does not convert AC to DC. It requires an AC input and the output is also AC. Also, the unit will not affect the cycle rate from the power company. If your power system is providing 60Hz, the Variac auto transformer will not change that, the ouput will be an undistorted 60Hz. This unit is rated up to 20 Amps or 2KVA Peak (16A Continous).
Power: 2000VA,Input voltage: 110V, Input current: 18A, Output voltage: 0-130V, Rated output current: 15.38A (Continuous operation for 2 hours, <10A can work continuously
This variable transformer is the perfect speed controller. The speed is infinitely variable, and because a transformer doesn't chop up the AC waveform like electronic speed controllers do, there's no noise, humming, etc.
If you're planning on using this as an "industrial" or bench-top supply with heavy loads, I'd recommend examining the brushes and adjusting the spring pressure on the windings. This can improve performance by reducing brush-contact sparking. Otherwise, this device is ready to work right out of the box.
If you have an unlimited budget or are running an official lab, please buy a dedicated lab-grade variac or regulated high-voltage power supply. If you're using this at home for hobbyist use, I definitely recommend!
Variac Variable Transformer to power equipment for testing with on oscilloscope. Without isolation, oscilloscope probing can be dangerous, as the BNC connector sheaths are shorted to mains earth. What this means is that if your testing equipment is referenced to mains earth and you accidentally connect your ground probe to something other than mains earth, you have a short with the potential for massive current through your scope. With isolation, the secondary side of the transformer floats, so long as the product does not include an internal mains earth connection to one of the sides of the secondary. A floating secondary can go a long way to protecting your equipment, since touching ONE probe to either side of the secondary will not cause a short, but rather just unfloat the secondary so that the potential of the probe in contact is now defined as ground,One point of contact is OK with an isolated system, but once you define the ground, any other place you touch on the secondary will cause a short through the two points in contact.
