Eaton XDT3C15 Dry-Type Transformer - Class I, Div 2
Part Number: XDT3C15
Quick Summary
XDT3C15 is a dry-type transformer delivering safe 480 VAC to 240 VAC power for equipment in hazardous area environments. For engineers and buyers, upgrading from older transformers in hazardous environments often means downtime, regulatory scrutiny, and costly rewiring. This XDT3C15 supports NEC/CEC compliance, Class I Division 2 hazardous area ratings, a NEMA 3R enclosure, and proven UL certifications. Its resin-encapsulated construction with copper windings delivers high efficiency, reduced thermal rise, and reliability in wet, dusty, or corrosive factory zones. A 15 kVA rating with 480 VAC primary and 240 VAC secondary supports compact, scalable power distribution for motors, controls, and instrumentation across hazardous locations.

FAQs
Yes. XDT3C15 is designed for a 480 VAC primary, with a 240 VAC secondary, and a three-phase connection suitable for panelboards, motor control centers, and distribution blocks. Its compact footprint (20 in L Ă— 10.46 in W Ă— 17.34 in H) and weight (approximately 319 lb) facilitate mounting in standard enclosures. Ensure proper clearance, proper phasing, and certified wiring methods per NEC/CEC guidelines for hazardous locations.
XDT3C15 uses resin-encapsulated construction with copper windings to minimize moisture ingress and improve thermal stability, which is crucial in Division 2 environments. It carries NEC/CEC compliance and NEMA 3R protection, plus UL certifications, delivering reliable operation in dusty, humid, or chemically aggressive settings while maintaining safe secondary voltages for downstream equipment.
Industries such as chemical processing, oil and gas, mining, and other facilities with hazardous area requirements benefit from XDT3C15. It supports medium-power needs (15 kVA) and provides a robust 480 VAC to 240 VAC conversion for control panels, instrumentation, and motor control applications while meeting strict regulatory standards.
The XDT3C15 carries NEC/CEC compliance, Class I Division 2 hazardous area rating, UL certifications, and a NEMA 3R enclosure. Downloadable resources include UL certification pages, instructional sheets, and spec guides from Eaton, ensuring traceable conformity for safety audits and procurement documentation.
The resin-encapsulated design with copper windings minimizes moisture-related faults and reduces thermal stress, lowering maintenance frequency and downtime. The 15 kVA rating matches typical plant loads efficiently, enabling longer service life, fewer spare parts, and predictable performance, which translates to lower lifecycle costs and more reliable operation in hazardous locations.
