Encapsulated transformer
Encapsulated design provides moisture, dust, and vibration resistance, reducing field failures and maintenance costs. This translates to higher uptime and lower service labor in mission-critical control panels. The 0.50 kVA, single-phase rating delivers dependable power for PLCs, relays, and sensors without unnecessary oversizing, improving overall system efficiency and reducing heat load within enclosures. Copper windings with a 115C rise offer robust thermal performance, supporting reliable operation in continuous duty applications and extending transformer life. A compact form factor simplifies panel integration, shortening installation time and enabling denser, more efficient control cabinets. Sealed encapsulation reduces ingress risk and simplifies compliance with enclosure standards, lowering ongoing maintenance and inspection requirements. Datasheet references and catalog guidance from Eaton ensure seamless compatibility with existing low-voltage distribution schemes and installation practices, enhancing project certainty for OEMs and integrators.

FAQs
For panel installations, ensure adequate clearance for ventilation and heat dissipation, secure mounting to a rigid surface, and proper wiring of the 480V primary to 120/240V secondary with correct color coding. Use the encapsulated design to minimize ingress risks and verify enclosure integrity. Refer to the Eaton datasheet for torque specifications and connection diagrams to avoid overheating or miswiring.
Yes. The model provides a 0.50 kVA rating with a single-phase 480-120/240V output configuration, using copper windings designed to handle typical control-logic loads, PLCs, and related automation hardware. This rating supports reliable operation without excessive heat in standard industrial enclosures, and compatibility is documented in the Eaton specification sheet.
Best suited for control panels, drive systems, and automation racks requiring reliable low-voltage power for PLCs, relays, and sensors. Its encapsulated form protects against dust and moisture, making it appropriate for machine tools, conveyors, and packaging lines where space is at a premium and maintenance access is limited.
Certification details are provided by Eaton and may include CE marking and UL recognition depending on the region and application. The exact approvals for S48D11P51PCU should be validated with Eaton or via the official datasheet to ensure compliance with local electrical and safety standards.
The sealed encapsulation reduces ingress of dust, moisture, and contaminants, which lowers maintenance frequency and extends service intervals. A compact footprint and reliable thermal performance contribute to lower energy waste and improved panel uptime, delivering a favorable total cost of ownership and faster project payback for OEMs and integrators.
