Transformers for Specific Electrical Requirements

ROTIMA AG develops and supplies transformers for industrial equipment, electronic assemblies, and technically sophisticated power supply systems. The product range extends from compact small transformers to designs for higher power ratings, electrical protection functions, and limited installation spaces.

Our engineers tailorthe primary voltage, secondary voltage, rated power, frequency, design, and wiring diagram to your specific application. We also take into account installation space, ambient temperature, insulation requirements, load profile, inrush current, heat generation, and permissible stray field in our custom development.

As a manufacturer and technical supplier, we support projects from design through prototyping and validation to series production. As a result, designers do not receive an off-the-shelf catalog component, but rather a technically defined transformer that fits the electrical and mechanical interface of the assembly.
Transformers Small transformers

Small transformers

Our small transformers are manufactured as open, encapsulated, or potted PCB transformers, depending on the model. They supply control systems, printed circuit boards, sensors, and electronic devices with the appropriate AC voltages.

When selecting a transformer, our technicians evaluate the rated power, line frequency, voltage regulation, height, mounting pitch, and thermal load. According to the data sheet, the available EI-series PCB transformers cover power ratings in the lower VA range, depending on the model series. They are therefore suitable for compact electronics and decentralized power supply systems.

Transformers Autotransformers

Autotransformers

ROTIMA autotransformers have a common winding with an electrical connection between the input and output sides. As a result, they require less copper and core material than transformers with separate windings while offering comparable performance specifications.

This design is suitable for the cost-effective adaptation of adjacent voltage levels. This means that no galvanic isolation is provided. Therefore, before designing a solution, our project engineers verify whether the application allows for voltage conversion alone or requires safe electrical isolation.
More about autotransformers
Transformers Isolating transformers

Isolating transformers

Our isolation transformers transfer electrical power between separate circuits. The primary and secondary windings have no conductive connection. The required galvanic isolation is achieved through the winding design, sufficient air gaps and creepage distances, and appropriate winding insulation.

ROTIMA designs these transformers according to the input voltage, output voltage, power rating, and required insulation strength. Leakage currents, ambient temperature, and behavior under fault conditions are also relevant factors. Insufficient insulation or thermal overload can lead to premature aging and electrical breakdowns.
More about isolating transformers
Transformers Safety transformers

Safety transformers

ROTIMA's safety transformers generate a safety extra-low voltage and safely isolate the output circuit from the supply network. They are used when people or sensitive equipment must be protected against dangerous contact voltages.

In practice, the term “safety transformers” is often used for transformers with a comparable protective function. The specific classification according to standards must be adapted to the application. To this end, our developers take into account the requirements of the intended application and the applicable provisions of the EN/IEC 61558 series of standards. The design encompasses the insulation configuration, dielectric strength, short-circuit behavior, thermal stress, and the permissible temperature rise.
More about safety transformers
Transformers Toroidal transformers

Toroidal transformers

ROTIMA toroidal transformers feature a closed, ring-shaped toroidal core. The uniform magnetic circuit enables a compact design and, when properly configured, reduces magnetic losses and external stray fields.

A toroidal transformer can be sensitive to high inrush current spikes. The actual inrush current depends, among other factors, on the time of energization, the remanence in the core, and the line impedance. Our engineers tailor the rated power, mounting, connection leads, shielding, and thermal design to the specific device.

Properly Sizing Transformers Instead of Just Selecting Them

Anyone looking to purchase transformers should not base their decision solely on output voltage and rated power. To ensure a robust design, electrical, thermal, and mechanical requirements must be considered together.

Our experts evaluate voltage drop, short-circuit behavior, no-load current, efficiency, and load current. Under load, however, winding resistances and magnetic losses alter the actual available voltage. The ideal turns ratio approximates the ratio of the number of turns.

The magnetic flux is determined by voltage, frequency, number of turns, and core cross-sectional area. Excessive flux density can drive the core into saturation. This causes a significant increase in magnetizing current, losses, noise, and heating. Conversely, conductor cross-sections that are too small lead to increased copper losses and an impermissible rise in temperature.

Custom Transformers with Validated Designs

ROTIMA manufactures custom transformers when standard components do not fully meet electrical, thermal, or geometric requirements. Our engineering team uses 2D and 3D FEM methods to analyze magnetic, thermal, and mechanical properties as early as the development phase.

The design process begins with a technical requirements profile. This includes power, frequency, primary voltage, secondary voltage, duty cycle, load type, ambient temperature, available cooling, installation dimensions, connections, and required certifications. At higher frequencies, stray inductance, winding capacitance, core losses, and electromagnetic coupling can also be critical factors.

We can produce prototypes for you, document measurement results, and support the transition to series production. Quality assurance measures include, among others, electrical testing, thermal calculations, X-ray analysis, vacuum impregnation, potting, and test reports. Depending on the design and validation, potted versions can be engineered to meet increased requirements regarding resistance to moisture, vibration, and contamination.

Transformers for Industry and Electronics

A transformer must be suited to the actual operating conditions. Control and automation systems have different load profiles than medical technology, power electronics, or mobile devices. For example, a high capacitive inrush current can place a strain on the secondary voltage, while nonlinear loads cause additional losses and heating.

Our project engineers therefore evaluate more than just rated values. They also consider power supply fluctuations, load changes, ambient temperature, cooling, installation, noise limits, and electromagnetic interference. An inductive transformer that is undersized may fail prematurely due to persistent overheating, insulation aging, or mechanical humming.

For applications close to the circuit, PCB transformers, power transformers, planar transformers, or special transformers may be suitable. Detailed descriptions of individual transformer types are provided on the corresponding product pages, so that this overview page clearly focuses on the main topic of transformers.

Other Core Shapes and Special Designs

In addition to EI and M configurations, ROTIMA offers transformers with UI cores, toroidal cores, and planar designs. The choice of core material depends on frequency, power, loss limit, and size.

Electrically laminated steel is primarily used at power-line frequency. A ferrite core is suitable for higher switching frequencies due to its low eddy current losses. However, ferrite transformers, high-frequency transformers, switching power supply transformers, and planar transformers must be tailored to the circuit topology, frequency range, and insulation requirements.
