Quick Summary

Eaton N48M28B12CULS45 K-Factor nonlinear ventilated transformer powers industrial distribution systems in harmonic environments. Engineers face harmonic distortion, heat buildup, and space limitations that threaten reliability and uptime. UL Listed certification accompanies a low-noise design (45 dB) and copper windings with electrostatic shielding. With 112.5 kVA rating, three phases, 480 V primary, and 208Y/120 V secondary, it supports scalable, compliant deployments. In practice, spec alignment with UL safety standards and rugged enclosures lowers procurement risk and speeds installation. Designed for Eaton's reframing of transformer efficiency, it reduces losses through copper windings and optimized cooling. The product integrates with standard distribution panels and Eaton's service ecosystem for rapid commissioning.

Feature → Business Impact → Application The K-Factor nonlinear ventilated design provides enhanced tolerance to harmonic currents, reducing overheating and extending transformer life in equipment-heavy facilities. This translates to lower maintenance costs and fewer unplanned outages in manufacturing lines and data centers. In practice, the 112.5 kVA three-phase core supports scalable load growth while maintaining stable voltage regulation across 480 V primary and 208Y/120 V secondary buses, ideal for mid-to-large industrial installations and mixed-use facilities. Copper windings improve conductivity and reliability, while the electrostatic shield reduces interference, creating a cleaner power path for sensitive drives and control systems. The 80 °C rise rating sets clear thermal boundaries, informing cooling strategy and enclosure sizing for outdoor or harsh environments. Low-noise operation at 45 dB enables siting near offices or work zones without compromising compliance. The WS34 Weathershield option supports outdoors, protecting the windings from weather and dust ingress. Tap settings of 2 at +2.5% FCAN and 4 at -2.5% FCBN offer quick voltage tailoring without rewiring, saving installation time and reducing field errors. These features collectively improve energy efficiency, compliance, and total cost of ownership, while enabling faster project delivery and predictable performance in automotive, food and beverage, and process industries. The transformer’s copper coil construction and magnetics alignment help reduce stray losses, contributing to lower heat and improved plant reliability, which is a meaningful differentiator when selecting a distribution transformer for harmonics-heavy plants.

FAQs

Installation requires adequate space for a 62.18 in tall, 31.44 in wide, 30.68 in deep footprint, stable mounting, and proper ventilation. Use the WS34 weather shield for outdoor sites and ensure enclosure clearance for cooling and maintenance access. The unit supports 30.68 in depth and 62.18 in height, so plan rack or pad mounting accordingly and follow torque specs for terminal connections.
Key ratings include a 112.5 kVA three-phase transformer with a 480 V primary and 208Y/120 V secondary, 60 Hz operation, and an 80 °C rise. Copper windings with electrostatic shielding and a low-noise design (45 dB) meet performance and safety expectations in harmonics-heavy environments.
Yes. The N48M28B12CULS45 is a K-Factor nonlinear transformer designed to manage harmonic currents, reducing overheating and improving voltage stability. Its K-13 design, copper windings, and shielding support reliable power delivery in facilities with significant harmonic content, such as motor drives and CNC systems.
This model is UL Listed, ensuring compliance with recognized safety standards. The design also emphasizes low-noise operation and robust protection features, including electrostatic shielding and weather-ready options like WS34 for outdoor installations.
Plan regular thermal monitoring and periodic insulation and winding checks, given the 80 °C rise rating. Verify tap adjustments (2 at +2.5% FCAN, 4 at -2.5% FCBN) during commissioning, and ensure protection devices, ventilation, and enclosure integrity are maintained.
