AutomationDirect CPT115-50-F Control Transformer

AutomationDirect CPT115-50-F is a 1‑phase, 50 VA control transformer from the CPT series designed to power 120 VAC control circuits from higher mains. It accepts 240 or 480 VAC primary voltages at 50/60 Hz and provides a 120 VAC secondary, making it suitable for feeding relays, contactors, timers, and PLC input networks in industrial panels. The CPT family offers a range of VA ratings, including CPT115-75-F (75 VA), enabling designers to match load requirements while maintaining primary–secondary isolation. AutomationDirect lists CPT115-50-F within the CPT series and notes its status as a retired item in the catalog, reflecting shifts in product availability. In practice, this transformer delivers a compact, isolated low‑voltage source for control circuitry in applications like machine controls and automation panels that rely on a stable 120 VAC control supply at typical 50/60 Hz mains.
