API Delevan 6053-230 Equivalent & Substitute Parts

Part Overview

The API Delevan 6053-230 is a laminated core power transformer rated at 12VA with dual primary and secondary windings, designed for through-hole mounting applications. This transformer supports dual voltage configurations (115V/230V primary, parallel 115V or series 230V secondary) with a maximum output current of 100mA in parallel mode or 50mA in series mode.

The 6053-230 is classified as obsolete, making it necessary to identify active equivalent parts for new designs and ongoing production requirements. The substitute part 6053R-230 provides functional equivalence while offering improved compliance status.
