MARS 5041C Transformer

MARS 5041C Transformer

The MARS 5041C Transformer is a heavy-duty, 50VA rated multi-tap control transformer designed for demanding HVACR applications. This industrial-grade 24V transformer features a versatile primary winding capable of handling 120/208/240/480V input, making it a universal solution for powering control circuits in air conditioning, heating, and refrigeration systems. Built with NEMA Class 2 construction, this step-down transformer ensures low heat rise and consistent performance under load. The 5041C model includes an integrated manual reset circuit breaker, providing essential protection against short circuits and overloads without the need for external fusing. Its compact, foot-mount design allows for flexible installation in tight control panels, while the color-coded wire leads simplify the wiring process for technicians in the field. This unit is an ideal high-reliability replacement for standard HVAC control transformers in both commercial and residential equipment.

Key Benefits
  • Universal Compatibility: Multi-tap primary supports 120V, 208V, 240V, and 480V power sources for maximum job site flexibility.
  • Integrated Protection: Features a built-in manual reset breaker to protect sensitive control boards and components.
  • NEMA Class 2 Rated: High-quality construction designed for energy-limited applications with minimal thermal output.
  • Durable Foot Mount: Rugged mounting base ensures stable installation within existing furnace or air handler cabinets.
Common Questions

Can I use the MARS 5041C to replace a lower VA rated transformer?
Yes, a 50VA transformer can safely replace 20VA or 40VA units, providing additional headroom for accessories like electronic air cleaners or zone dampers, provided the secondary voltage matches.

How do I identify the correct primary tap for a 480V system?
Technicians should refer to the lead color-coding on the MARS 5041C diagram; typically, the black lead is common, and the specific colored lead corresponding to 480V must be energized while capping off the unused taps.

What happens if the internal breaker trips?
The manual reset button on the housing will pop out. Once the downstream short or overload is resolved, simply depress the button to restore 24V power to the system.
