Marine Isolating Transformers

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides technical specifications and installation guidelines for the Noratel LS-LI Marine Isolating Transformers, specifically the LS16LI-230 model. These transformers are designed to safely connect AC shore power to a boat's AC system by eliminating electrical continuity between the shore power and the boat, thus preventing unsafe situations and galvanic corrosion.
Specifications:
  • Input Voltage: 230 V
  • Frequency: 47-63 Hz
  • Output Voltage: 230 V
  • Compliance: EN61558-2-4
  • Test/Insulating Voltage: 2.3 kV AC RMS
  • Construction Class: II
  • Insulation Class: B (130°C)
  • Max Ambient Temperature: 40°C
  • Degree of Protection: IP20
Key Features:
  • Double insulation to prevent galvanic currents and protect against corrosion.
  • Soft start feature to prevent shore power fuse from blowing due to inrush current.
  • Equipped with overload and short-circuit protection for maximum security.
Installation Guidelines:
  • Connect shore side AC power to N1 and L1, but do not connect the shore side ground wire to the transformer.
  • Connect the boat's AC power system to L2 and N2.
  • Connect the boat's ground system to the transformer's centertap (M) unless the boat has a floating ground system, in which case no ground connection should be made to the transformer.
Recommendations: For boats with a floating ground system similar to the IT-net on shore, avoid connecting the ground to the transformer to maintain system integrity.

Marine Isolating Transformers-1

Isolating transformers Marine Isolating Transformers Wiring diagram Type LS-LI Isolating transformer - for safe and correct connection of AC shore power to your boats AC system. An isolating transformer eliminates any electrical continuity between shore power and the boat. Shore power is fed to the primary side of the transformer and the boat is connected to the secondary, this completely isolates the boat from the shore ground and will prevent any unsafe situation, and at the same time avoid galvanic corrosion. A soft start feature prevents the shore power fuse from blowing due to the inrush current of the transformer, which would otherwise occur. Technical specifications Input voltage: Output voltage: Construction class: Insulation class:

Marine Isolating Transformers-2

Noratel marine isolation transformers In order to eliminate galvanic corrosion a isolating transformer separating the shore AC power from the boats 230 Volts (or 115 volts) should be installed. An Isolating transformer eliminates the galvanic currents, and thus protect propellers and propeller shafts from corrosion. Noratel LS transformers is double insulated and the ground wire from the shore side supply should NOT be connected to the transformer. LS transformer has “softstart” feature which prevents the shore power fuse from blowing due to the inrush current of the transformer - connection...
