i need a 120VAC to 160VAC step-up transformer; like, not an already built converter, but a just bulk single transformer. where can i buy one?and don't say go look in OKorder, coz i've already looked and there isn't any
The dimensions of a transformer depend on the required current rating. In some circumstances, you could even use a transformer with a multi- tapped primary. By tapping it lower, you may find 160V between the neutral or common tap and a tap higher up the winding. It would be working as an autotransformer, which is not a particularly good form. I would question for what purpose you would need 160V., anyway? It seems a strange voltage to need.?
Need to know the current rating, or the wattage rating. also look for a 40 volt step down, as you can use the isolated 40 volts to add to the 120 volts from a simple isolation transformer to get 160 volts keep searching. One alternative is to get a 120 to 240 transformer, and remove some of the secondary turns to drop it down to 160 volts secondary. This size transformer is very common and comes in all sizes, for all current levels. another alternative is to get the 450 volts DC that I think you want in a different way. Use a tripler on a 110/110 volt isolation transformer, which gets you about 460-470 volts. Or be elaborate and use a doubler on a 110/220 transformer with a regulator to drop down the voltage. .
