50Hz Transformer Core Use For 800 Hz

11/03/2011 5:16 AM

can i use 50 Hz transformer core, to step down voltage by frequency 1,600 Hz

because i am in planning make battery charger 12V 200Ampere, and the theme is:

1. low cost ,

2. high quality ,

3. high efficiency ,

4. adjustable voltage ,

5. adjustable current ,

6. has current limiter and short protect ,

.

.

i ever make BATTERY CHARGER SMPS 400 HZ 12VOLT 50AMPERE

moderate cost, 88% efficiency, ever try 24 hours no stop, use dummy load, and the transformer core reach the temperature 70° C , flat from first hour to 24hours, but the efficiency not change 87% to 88%. i already consider about skin effect, so i use thin wire and parallel suit by current need.

maybe if i use frequency 800 HZ or higher, it will cut the cost again, because i can use more low wire turns, and will have more low DC resistance at coil wire.

but how about eddy losses or core losses at high frequency,

what is the highest working frequency of 50HZ transformer core....?

all equipment i use all standard spare part ,

i buy from ordinary electronic spare part store.......

whether my plan feasible to make......?

Thank You all

Let me tell you, the CT Series is used for Line Frequency from 15 Hz to 50Hz/60 Hz and up to 200 Hz current sensing applications. Typically uses are in watt meter, electricity dispensers, power calibrators, power transducers, precision power meters, digital meters for power systems and server motors. Current Transformers are used to measure current for power management and controls, applications in safety protection and in current limiting. The CT Series Series are designed using various iron and nickel alloys, permalloy and nanocrystalline tape wound core materials. It has an accuracy class of 0.5% to 5% depending on the series types.Please download the data sheets for specifications. Current transformer uses a single turn primary. The primary winding is not built into the transformer itself. It has an opening or hole for the primary wire or cable to go through. The number of secondary turns determines the current ratio. The turn ratio is up to 2500.The terminating resistor is also called the "burden resistor", and it is the resistor across the secondary terminals. The voltage across the terminating resistor is equal to Terminating Resistor divided by Number of secondary turns. This is the voltage that is being measured by the engineer for current monitoring purposes.
