Ken, the watt rating can be determined by the core size and then the current found from that. But, that dont hold true if they didn't wind the coil with the right size wire for its duty cycle. The on

William, That's about all you can do besides measuring the internal coil twmperature which is read in the center of each winding. Then make sure that temp is at least 2X less than the wires maximum r

William, Yes there is a long drawn out formula to figure temperature rise and the appromimate temperature it will run at. The problem is it isn't real exact as the construction has a lot to do with i

John and others, You have to remember though that a potted transformer will run hotter internally than one which is of standard construction. It works the same as adding insulation around the oven in

Borislav, I dont think coupling to the chassis is what is causing this to happen. Microwave oven transformers use pretty cheap steel, and they most likely should be ran around 12 kilogauss. Actually,

The form factor "F" below is 1.11 not 4.44. I was thinking of it multiplied by 4 but the 25.8 takes this into account for converting to inches. 4 X 6.45 (conv. factor) is 25.8. Actually this could al

Borislav, 19 kilogauss is too high for M-6 or Hipersil material for about 28 or 29 gauge. It's max is about 17 kg., and it's recommended to be ran at 15 kg. because after 15 kg., the magnetizing curr
