Why Choose the Lovato CTRS40VA Modular Safety Transformer?
The Lovato CTRS40VA is a compact 40 VA modular safety transformer designed to convert a 230 V AC supply to low-voltage 12 V AC or 24 V AC outputs for electrical control, signalling and auxiliary circuits. As part of the Lovato Electric CTRS series, it provides a practical DIN rail solution for installations requiring an isolated low-voltage AC supply within a distribution board or control panel.
With a rated output power of 40 VA, the CTRS40VA offers greater load capacity than lower-rated transformers in the same family while retaining selectable 12/24 V AC secondary voltages from a 230 V AC primary supply. It is suitable for powering compatible bells, chimes, signalling equipment, control devices and other low-voltage auxiliary loads.
The CTRS40VA uses a modular enclosure designed for straightforward DIN rail installation alongside other electrical devices. Its combination of 40 VA capacity, dual secondary voltage options and safety-transformer construction makes it a versatile choice for residential, commercial and industrial low-voltage AC circuits.
