Eaton Specification Sheet - N48M28B75A
K-Factor nonlinear design improves thermal performance by actively managing harmonic currents, reducing insulation stress, and extending transformer life. This leads to fewer unplanned outages and lower maintenance costs in facilities with nonlinear loads such as drives and PWM controllers. The result is more stable voltage under transient events and longer service intervals for critical equipment. In practice, engineers selection is simplified because the transformer behaves predictably under peak harmonic demand. With a 75 kVA rating, the unit provides solid voltage quality for critical loads while supporting compact feeder design. This makes it well-suited for machine tools, robotics cells, process controls, and data-center subfeeds that demand consistent voltage. The three-phase configuration minimizes phase imbalance and helps maintain thermal margins in crowded switchgear assemblies. Operating at 480 V primary and 208Y/120 V secondary, the transformer integrates with standard distribution and control panels, reducing the need for additional step-down equipment. Taps provide voltage fine-tuning—two taps at +2.5% FCAN and four taps at -2.5% FCBN—allowing on-site adjustments to compensate for line drop and load changes. The 60 Hz rating ensures compatibility with common power systems in North America. Aluminum windings offer corrosion resistance, lower weight, and cost efficiency compared with copper windings, easing handling during installation. The electrostatic shield minimizes EMI coupling to nearby controls and sensors, improving reliability for sensitive automation equipment. A robust 916A frame, with a footprint of 23.42 by 28.22 by 48.56 inches, ensures secure mounting in standard transformer rooms. Weathershield WS19 expands outdoor deployment options, enabling reliable service in exposed environments when paired with proper enclosure ventilation. The UL Listed certification provides a clear safety baseline for industrial compliance and maintenance audits. Combined with a 1-year warranty, this transformer supports predictable lifecycle planning and a favorable total cost of ownership in power-distribution upgrades.

FAQs
Plan for the 916A frame footprint (23.42 in L x 28.22 in W x 48.56 in H) and provide adequate ventilation. Mount using standard hardware, connect the 480 V primary and 208Y/120 V secondary conductors, and ensure clearances per enclosure guidelines. Use the 2 taps at +2.5% and 4 taps at -2.5% to fine-tune voltage during commissioning and loading variations.
The N48M28B75A is a three-phase 75 kVA transformer with a 480 V primary and 208Y/120 V secondary, rated for 60 Hz. Tap settings include 2 taps at +2.5% FCAN and 4 taps at -2.5% FCBN to adjust for line drop and load changes during commissioning or operation.
Outdoor suitability is supported by the WS19 weather shield option and the UL Listed safety certification. For outdoor use, pair the unit with appropriate enclosure ventilation and environmental controls to maintain the 80 °C rise rating under expected ambient conditions.
The transformer carries UL Listed certification, indicating compliance with applicable safety standards for electrical equipment. No CE or IP rating is listed in the provided data; verify regional requirements during procurement and site audits.
Aluminum windings reduce material weight and maintenance complexity, while the electrostatic shield helps minimize EMI with nearby controls. The 75 kVA rating aligns with sizable loads in automation lines, contributing to longer service life and potentially lower total cost of ownership due to fewer replacements and outages.
