With ordinary care, a POWERSTAT Variable Transformer should require no servicing except possible replacement
of the brush assembly. The brush should be inspected periodically and replaced if arcing takes place or if it is badly
worn. Because the brush must be of a special material, replace only with a Superior Electric brush assembly listed
below. The assembly is designed to assure perfect contact of the brush to the commutator regardless of brush
position and length of time in use. Take care to avoid scraping, scratching or marring the commutator surface.
Follow these steps to install a new brush assembly:
1. Remove the plate block above the terminal panel.
2. Unfasten the brush assembly anchor screws, remove and discard the old brush assembly.
3. Insert the new brush assembly in the radiator slot, replace the anchor screws and tighten to the radiator. Be sure
4. Raise the brush and place a piece of sandpaper (grit #400 or finer) between the commutator surface and the
5. While holding the sandpaper in place (flat), rotate the radiator through a short arc. Remove the sandpaper and
6. Rotate the radiator several times to check for smooth travel of the brush over the commutator surface. The

A POWERSTAT Variable Transformer is a precision product packed with care. When unpacking, examine carefully
for any shipping damage. Inspect the brush contact with particular care. The “Damage and Shortage” Instructions
packed with the unit outline the proper procedure to follow if any parts are damaged or missing.
NOTE- The unit should be protected from any dust or debris that may be encountered while drilling holes, installing
wiring, etc., during installation.
All models are designed so that the same unit can be either bench or back-of-panel mounted as desired. The units
as shipped are arranged for bench mounting. To change to back-of-panel mounting, proceed as outlined.
POWERSTAT Variable Transformer types 146 and 246 have four slots in the base for mounting. The mounting
bolts can be located anywhere within the slots.
BENCH OR WALL MOUNTING
1. Locate and drill the desired set of mounting holes (four holes “A” or “B” or within the slot) using Drilling Template
2. Place the unit in position. Insert and tighten four 3/8” mounting bolts.
BACK-OF-PANEL MOUNTING
1. Using the four slots between “A” or “B” holes on Drilling Template No. 1., locate and drill four mounting bolt holes.
2. Loosen the knob setscrews and remove the knob. Remove the dial and mount it to the panel with the three 6-32
3. Loosen the shaft setscrews (at the base end of the shaft) and slide the shaft through so it will project about 1-

Motor-driven POWERSTAT Variable Transformers of the 146-246 Series, both single units and ganged assemblies,
may be bench or wall mounted in the same manner as manually operated ganged assemblies. Three-ganged
assemblies, however, have three side brackets requiring 6 mounting bolts as shown in Drilling Template No. 2..
If an application’s current requirement is greater then a single variable transformer’s per phase rating, it is common
practice to use a larger model. In some cases this is not possible either because there is no larger model or the
physical requirements of the application do not allow it. For these applications, parallel-connected units can be used.
These parallel connections require paralleling choke(s) in addition to the POWERSTAT® Variable Transformer, which
may be mounted in any convenient position. Paralleling choke T5587 is available for this connection and must be
ordered separately.

for use with panels to ¾” thick. For thicker panels use 3/8-24 bolts ½” longer than the panel thickness. A ganged
