2 kVA resin-encapsulated single-phase transformer with 480 Vac primary and 120/240 Vac secondary delivers compact, space-saving power conversion for hazardous locations; the business impact is improved reliability and reduced wiring complexity in tight electrical rooms or outdoors. This design supports continued operation in moisture, dust, and chemical exposure, translating to lower maintenance costs and less downtime in chemical plants and refineries. The 316 stainless steel enclosure paired with resin encapsulation provides superior corrosion resistance, extending service life in wash-down areas and aggressive environments, which reduces replacement cycles and total cost of ownership. The compact footprint—10.4 in length, 7.8 in width, 11.1 in height—coupled with a 50 lb weight, yields easier handling, faster installations, and safer mounting in constrained spaces. Copper windings improve voltage regulation and energy efficiency, delivering tighter control of downstream equipment and reducing energy waste in crane bays and processing lines. Compliance-driven benefits include NEC/CEC alignment and Class I, Division 2 hazardous-location rating, which streamlines inspection readiness and third-party certification efforts. The NEMA 4X rating adds IP-protected ruggedness, enabling installation in outdoor enclosures and wash-down zones without compromising performance. These features collectively support scalable expansion, plug-and-play compatibility with existing 480 Vac circuits, and straightforward retrofits in legacy systems, addressing common objections about upgrading hazardous-area power supply with a robust, industry-proven solution.
