TYPE “"TW"" MULTI-CONTROL TRANSFORMER
Type “TW” Multi-Control Transformer, first built
1953, ie designed for use with 110-125 volt, 60-
eycle power lines and in rated at 175 watts, Thi
igned specifically for use
layouts having @ considerable quantity
of auxiliary equipment.
‘As can be seen from ite achematic diagram,
below, the “TW tranoformer is in reality « double
tanaformer consisting of two independent coil and
laminations assemblies with their primary windings
connected in parallel and with secondary windings
joined at terminal “A to provide a common ground,
Note that the secondary windings of the two trans-
formers are arranged to buck each other in order to
limit any possible output voltage to the maximum
specified for toy transformers by the Underwriters
Laboratories.
Because of thie construction the two coils of
this transformer can be loaded independently of
each other. Also, because of this feature, no more
than 60 watts, or 4% to S amperes of current at the
normal operating voltage, should be drawn continue
ously fromeither coil, to avoid overloading the coils.
For best power utilization, current for the track
should be drawn from the variable voltage coil with
post “‘A"" being connected to the outside rails. This
pemnit current for 022 switches and otber track
components or accensorien having a common ground
with the track to be drawn from the “D"” post. Current
for lights or independently openited accessories
should be taken from the 14-vole circuit of the fixed
voltage coil through the pair of unlettered terminals.
The variable voltage coil of the “TW" trans-
former is equipped with a standard whistle control
circuit described on Page 3, Section PS, but each
‘of the coils ie equipped with its own cireuit breaker
#0 that an overload of one coil will not affect the
‘output of the other. ‘The pilot light, however,
common to both coil circuits and is 80 connected
that the lamp voltage will change when either circuit
breaker operates, causing the lamp brightness to
vary. Nornal lamp voltage iv 13-14 volte, dropping
to 45. volts when the short in in the track circuit
{poste A-U), and rising to 17-18 volte if the short is
in the AD circuit. Rhen the short is in the independ-
ent Lévolt circuit, however, the voltage variation
on the lump is too small to affect ite brightness,
