APPLICATIONS:
- Distribution
and power transformers
- Motors
- High
frequency inductors
- Current
transformers
- Devices
requiring high permeability
and low loss at low frequencies
BENEFITS:
- Extremely
low core loss - less than
0.2 W/kg at 60 Hz, 1.4 Tesla,
or 30% of the core loss
of grade M-2 electrical
steel (core loss at 50 Hz
is approximately 80% of
60 Hz values)
- High
permeability
