FAQs
When planning installation, ensure the site complies with NEC/CEC for Class I, Division 2 environments and uses the NEMA 4X enclosure. Verify adequate clearance around the transformer, secure mounting to a rigid surface, and route leads to maintain insulation integrity. The unit’s 125 lb weight and 19.37 in L by 11.34 in H by 8.87 in W footprint fit common cabinet spaces and minimize retrofit complexity.
The XDT3C3X is a 3 kVA, three-phase transformer with a primary voltage of 480 Vac and a secondary voltage of 240 Vac, operating at 60 Hz. It features copper windings and a resin-encapsulated design for reliability in harsh environments, along with a 316 stainless steel enclosure for corrosion resistance.
Yes. The transformer outputs 240 Vac from a 480 Vac primary, which aligns with many control panels and DC link configurations typical in automation and power distribution. Its compact dimensions and weight support straightforward mounting in standard electrical cabinets, enabling quick integration without extensive alterations to existing layouts.
The XDT3C3X adheres to NEC/CEC standards and carries a Class I, Division 2 hazardous-location rating with a NEMA 4X enclosure. It is designed for areas classified as hazardous or controlled, providing safe operation, regulatory compliance, and easier documentation for audit trails and maintenance records.
The transformer offers improved reliability due to resin encapsulation and copper windings, reducing insulation wear and downtime. Its rugged enclosure and hazardous-location certifications simplify safety compliance, while its compact footprint lowers installation costs and accelerates project timelines, delivering a favorable total cost of ownership over equipment life cycle.
