For the manufacture of our transformer core coils
t84 to t150 we use nothing but FERON which is extremely low in losses
and distortions. This material is a grain-oriented silicon iron
with a sheet thickness of 0.35 mm. This high quality initial material
is subsequently heat treated in a special process. In this way,
distortions in the material's crystal lattice structure, caused
by rolling and stamping, are eliminated. In this way, FERON is provided
with a crystal lattice structure which displays optimum magnetic
properties. Such a core material is used for the manufacture of
high quality audio transformers. It is very seldom used in "normal"
transformers, except where very low power loss is important. In
this construction type, coils can be manufactured with very low
internal resistances and extreme load-bearing capacity. These are
the preconditions for a precise deep bass. The ratios of inductivity
to internal resistance achieved here can often not even be realised
with pure air cored coils, or only at considerably greater financial
cost. Vacuum impregnation, described in detail at the end of the
chapter "Zero Ohm Coils", can be recommended without reservation
as a supplementary treatment for transformer core coils to enhance
their high quality.
