An isolation transformer<\/strong> transfers electrical energy from the primary to the secondary side without a direct galvanic connection between the two sides.<\/p>\n

In medical technology, special isolation transformers are used to operate electrical devices and systems from a galvanically isolated supply and to support requirements for low leakage currents.<\/p>\n

IMED isolation transformers from EMO Systems<\/strong> are designed for medically used areas and medical-technical applications.<\/p>\n

How does an isolation transformer work?<\/h2>\n

An isolation transformer has a primary and a secondary winding. The electrical energy is transferred through the magnetic field of the transformer. There is no direct conductive connection between the primary and secondary sides.<\/p>\n

This creates a galvanic isolation of the power supply<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Important: an isolation transformer is no licence to touch electrical conductors. As the manufacturer states explicitly in its product documentation, an isolation transformer does not, for example, prevent a circuit from being closed by touching both output poles at the same time.<\/p>\n

Medical isolation transformers<\/h2>\n

Medical isolation transformers are used when the power supply of medical devices has to meet particular requirements for electrical safety and low leakage currents.<\/p>\n

According to the product information, typical applications of IMED isolation transformers include:<\/p>\n
