FAQs
For marine installations, ensure adequate clearance for ventilation, secure mounting to withstand vibration, and proper cable routing from 480 V input to the 208Y/120 V output. Verify enclosure suitability and environmental exposure without exceeding the 80°C rise rating. Plan for taps accessibility during commissioning to enable voltage adjustments in variable load conditions.
The 112.5 kVA rating defines maximum continuous load capability, supporting multiple drives and controls without overheating. The taps (+2.5% / -2.5%) allow fine voltage regulation to maintain stable downstream voltages, reducing nuisance trips and protecting sensitive equipment in fluctuating shipboard electrical environments.
Yes. With a 480 V primary and 208Y/120 V secondary, the transformer aligns with widely used offshore panel boards and low-voltage distribution circuits. Its copper windings offer low losses, while the ventilated design supports reliable operation in elevated ambient temperatures typical of marine facilities.
Certification scope for MV48M28B12CUEE varies by region and application; the listing indicates Certification contact with the manufacturer. To ensure compliance for your project, request current CE, SIL, and IP-rated options directly from Eaton and confirm needed marine approvals before procurement.
Copper windings reduce electrical losses and improve thermal performance, extending winding life and lowering operating temperatures. Ventilated cooling further mitigates heat buildup in high ambient environments, which can translate to fewer outages, lower maintenance costs, and a faster return on investment in demanding marine or industrial deployments.
