Construction

The transformer BRAHMA T16/MC 15360101 is a spark transformer with a magnetic circuit in the form of a shell. The secondary windings are grounded in the center. The high-voltage transformer is equipped with a shielding device to suppress radio interference, which must be securely grounded. The coils are closed with two caps painted with flame retardant paint and form a single unit with a magnetic circuit.

Each transformer is identified by the letter T (transformer), a series of numbers indicating the model, and possibly an alphabetic letter indicating the mounting system. If a standard mounting system is used, the corresponding letter is not included in the designation. For example, T11 refers to a transformer with a standard mounting system, and T11/N refers to a different mounting system.

The ignition units BRAHMA T16/MC 15360101 may have the same electrical characteristics, but a different mounting system or vice versa.

Connection

High-voltage insulators used in transformers BRAHMA T16/MC 15360101 can be of two types, depending on the method of connection to high-voltage cables:

1. Screw terminal:

– A screw is used to connect to high voltage cables.

   – This type of terminal must be used unless another type is explicitly specified.

2. Cylindrical terminal with a diameter of 4 mm:

– A cylindrical terminal with a diameter of 4 mm is used for connection to high-voltage cables.

3. Cylindrical terminal with a diameter of 6.3 mm:

   – A cylindrical terminal with a diameter of 6.3 mm is used for connection to high-voltage cables.

It is important to note that unless explicitly stated, the use of a screw terminal is assumed. The insulators are made of 30% PBT fiberglass, which provides them with good insulating properties and strength.

Installation

– Be careful! Dangerous voltage may be present.

– Connect and disconnect the ignition transformer only after disconnecting the power supply.

– Comply with applicable national and European standards (e.g. EN 60335-1 / EN 60335-2-102) regarding electrical safety.

– Make sure that the transformer ground and the electrical system ground are well connected.

– Place a single grounding center, thus preventing the formation of ring tracks from the grounding conductors.

– The device can be installed in any position.

– Reduce the length of the ignition cable to a minimum (this reduces parasitic capacitance and the likelihood that the ignition cable will act as an antenna transmitting interference to nearby cables).

– Route the ignition cables along a separate path near the grounding planes (this reduces the effect of interference on the remaining electrical wires).

– Avoid placing high voltage cables near other cables.

– Make sure that the degree of protection corresponds to the system.
