Encapsulated transformer
Encapsulated construction with copper windings provides rugged protection against moisture, dust, and vibration. This reduces insulation wear and extends service life in harsh environments, lowering maintenance costs in tight control panels. With a 1.5 kVA rating and a 1-phase 120-120 output, this transformer scales to typical control circuits and sensing networks. Its single-phase configuration simplifies wiring and accelerates panel builds. The 115°C rise rating demonstrates strong thermal tolerance under load, helping maintain performance in cabinets with limited airflow. That resilience translates to fewer derates and more consistent operation during peak demand. Encapsulation enables safer handling and easier installation in busy facilities, while copper windings deliver lower I2R losses for better efficiency. From procurement to maintenance, this unit supports standardization across sites and simplifies sourcing through Eaton's transformer catalog. The result is improved uptime, predictable lead times, and a clear return on investment for general-power applications. Compatibility and installation benefits include a standard 1-ph 120-120 wiring, a compact encapsulated footprint suitable for dense enclosures, and straightforward replacement in existing Eaton-powered panels.
