FAQs
Plan for a compliant mounting surface with adequate clearance, use a compatible NEMA 3R enclosure, and follow NEC/CEC wiring practices. The XDT1A5’s footprint (10 in x 9.9 in x 16.2 in) and 140 lb weight influence rack placement and anchoring, while the resin-encapsulated construction reduces moisture intrusion and simplifies mounting in confined spaces.
XDT1A5 is a single-phase transformer with a 480 Vac primary and a 120/240 Vac secondary, designed for 60 Hz operation and a 5 kVA rating. This makes it suitable for powering control circuits and instrumentation within hazardous locations.
Yes. It carries NEC/CEC compliance with a Class I, Division 2 hazardous rating and a NEMA 3R enclosure. Area classification is Hazardous/Classified Locations, ensuring safe operation in challenging environments.
Resin encapsulation provides moisture resistance, improved dielectric strength, and enhanced mechanical protection. This reduces cleaning and maintenance needs, minimizes insulation failures, and lowers lifecycle costs in moisture-prone or vibration-heavy facilities.
With an oil-free, resin-encapsulated design and copper windings, the transformer reduces leakage risks and maintenance requirements. Its rugged enclosure and certified hazardous-location ratings simplify compliance, while documented installation instructions and available spec sheets support efficient commissioning and long-term operation.
