Are you serious? 2x 38 V x 6 A = 468 W, so 8 x 468 W = 3744 W + the 2x 21 W winding, so more like 4 kW?!?
What kind of amp was this?
It is probably not wise to run this on a single phase of AC as it is borderline even with a 16 A fuse and strong wiring.
By the way, to you have more than one to sell?
More likely approx 6 Amps for each of the 39-0-39 volt windings? Does the SX2400 on the label indicate the VA rating for all windings? Do you know anything of the amp it came from?

I am more realistic 2x 38 V x 6,5 A = 494 W, so 4 x 494 W = 1976 W + the 2x 21 W winding, so more like 2 kW, maybe max 2,4kW.
Look at the size of the tfmr in comparison to the spade lugs, I'd say it's about 200/300VA tops. That'd mean 1A ish per winding. you can also see the wire gauge, doesn't look anywhere near 6A rated. Lastly I have a 1KVA toroid, it's about a foot in diameter 4" high. Typical 500/600VA toroids are 6" dia 3" high.
Hope that helps any the seller & future buyer gauge current capacity.

Thanks Andy,
I'm fairly confident it is in fact a 2400VA capable transformer. I think that the two transformers that you can also see in the picture are also for sale here and are confirmed as 1250VA and look a good bit smaller. My offer to the OP reflects any (small) remaining uncertainty I may have. Will check the dimensions before completing purchase though.
