I don't have any idea. It would be about right for a 30L-1, except the
30L-1 has three secondaries and uses a voltage doubler instead of a full
wave this one might.

Technically speaking the part number should have a couple dashes, in the
form 672-0531-009. The 672 says its a transformer, the 0531 is the spec
sheet, and the 009 the particular part on a multiple part spec sheet,
that came into use long about 1961 or 1962. Before that the extension
indicated the paper size for the drawing, but used only 001 through 005.

Googling the part number with dashes has 8 hits. One says its rated at
565 ma (usually that means DC) output. And I see the label says that.
