That transformer is a ferro-resonant transformer. It

3-phase to work!
While I can not say anything about the KL10s transformer, it should be
noted that some three phase transformers can work on a single phase.
It depends on how the windings are laid. Some of the guys that run old
broadcast transmitters on the ham bands use this trick.
The primary DC supply uses 3-phase (and the ferro-resonant
transformer) so as to minimize the size of the filter capacitors
needed (ie ripple). So even if the transformer would work on single
phase (which I doubt) the DC coming out from the supply to feed the
linear regulators would have *way* too much ripple.
