Dauer 490541 150W Stainless Steel Low Voltage Transformer
Product Overview
The Dauer 490541 is a 150W stainless steel transformer for compatible low-voltage landscape lighting systems. Multiple output taps help compensate for voltage drop across lighting runs, while the photocell receptacle and timer plug support common lighting-control accessories.
Transformer selection begins with the combined operating load of every lamp and integrated fixture, plus the effect of wire length and circuit layout. Keep the connected load within the listed 150W capacity and allow practical design margin rather than planning at the absolute limit. The 12V through 15V taps are used to address voltage drop, but the correct tap should be chosen from actual system measurements and installation guidance—not as a substitute for suitable cable gauge. Before installation, confirm the 120V supply, mounting location, grounding, cable entries, terminal organization, control accessories, and applicable electrical requirements.
