Copper-wound coil and epoxy encapsulation deliver robust thermal performance and lower, stable impedance, reducing copper losses and improving efficiency in factory automation applications. Business impact: improved energy efficiency and cooler operation under load, translating to longer component life and lower operating costs. Application: control panels and machine subsystems in production lines where reliability and compact form factor matter. The 5 kVA rating with 480 V primary and 120/240 V secondary supports common industrial loads with minimal wiring complexity, enabling quick panel designs and faster commissioning. Business impact: faster project timelines and reduced wiring errors. Application: machine tools, conveyors, and robotics stacks where precise voltage transformation is required. NEMA 3R indoor-outdoor enclosure and Grade 316 stainless steel catalog notes ensure corrosion resistance and outdoor viability, aligning with facilities exposed to weather or washdown. Business impact: higher uptime in harsh environments; Application: outdoor equipment houses, ingress-prone facilities, and washdown areas. Tap sizing of 2 at -5% FCBN offers voltage regulation under varying load, helping keep equipment within tolerance bands. Business impact: tighter control of downstream devices; Application: systems with variable motor starts and fluctuating input voltages. A compact frame (177), weight of 132 lb, and 9.89 in length, 10.38 in width, and 16 in height simplify mounting in dense panels and retrofit projects. Business impact: simplified installation and ballast management; Application: retrofits and new builds with limited cabinet space.

FAQs
Install the S48G11B05CUS6 in a compatible enclosure with a NEMA 3R rating for indoor-outdoor use. Ensure copper-wound coils remain accessible for inspection, use the 2 at -5% FCBN taps for voltage regulation under load, and mount in a location that accommodates the 9.89 in L x 10.38 in W x 16 in H footprint and 132 lb weight for proper clearance and cooling.
Key specs include 5 kVA VA rating, 60 Hz frequency, single-phase operation, 480 V primary, and 120/240 V secondary. The copper winding and 80 °C rise support reliable performance under typical industrial loads, while the 177 frame and 2D wiring connection simplify cabinet wiring and connection to downstream devices.
Yes. The unit features a NEMA 3R enclosure and catalog notes indicating a Grade 316 stainless steel enclosure option, enhancing corrosion resistance and enabling indoor-outdoor service in damp or exposed environments. Industrial operators benefit from extended service life with minimal maintenance in challenging conditions.
The transformer is UL Listed, providing recognized safety certification for electrical equipment. It is designed for rugged operation in industrial settings, with an indoor-outdoor Weathershield configuration and corrosion-resistant enclosure options to meet harsh facility requirements.
Expect reduced downtime due to reliable power isolation and robust construction, lower maintenance needs from epoxy-encapsulated copper coils, and faster commissioning thanks to standardized 480 V to 120/240 V conversion. The unit’s compact footprint and mounting practicality also lower installation costs in retrofit projects and new builds.
