Encapsulated design with aluminum coil provides superior moisture resistance and heat dissipation, improving reliability in harsh environments and reducing maintenance costs for automation systems. The 1.5 kVA rating with 480 V primary and 120/240 V secondary supports a wide range of control circuits and motor starters, enabling on-site voltage flexibility through two taps at -5% FCBN. This translates into fewer on-site voltage adjustments and higher first-pass success during commissioning. The NEMA 3R enclosure, reinforced by a Grade 304 stainless steel construction, offers weather-resilient protection for indoor-outdoor applications, cutting corrosion risk and extending service life in manufacturing plants and outdoor switchgear. A compact footprint (6.56 in L x 13.03 in H x 5.53 in W) and a 33 lb weight simplify installation in crowded control cabinets and crowded plant spaces. Wiring is straightforward with a 2D connection, supporting faster, safer wiring harness integration. Temperature rise of 115 °C ensures dependable operation under continuous load, minimizing derating and downtime. The rugged build, UL Listed certification, and documented warranty provide confidence for long-term maintenance planning and spare-part planning across multi-site deployments.

FAQs
The S48G11P16PSS is designed for standard industrial control panels with a compact footprint (6.56 in L, 13.03 in H, 5.53 in W) and a 33 lb weight. Its NEMA 3R enclosure and Grade 304 stainless steel notes support indoor-outdoor installations, while the 2D wiring connection simplifies harness integration. When planning mounting, consider convenient access for taps and maintenance, ensure ventilation for the 115 °C rise rating, and confirm compatibility with a 480 V-to-120/240 V secondary configuration in a panel rated for UL safety standards.
Key ratings include a 1.5 kVA VA rating, 60 Hz frequency, single-phase operation, 480 V primary, and 120/240 V secondary. The secondary allows standard control voltages with two taps at -5% FCBN to accommodate supply variations. This tap configuration supports voltage stabilization in environments with fluctuating input voltage, reducing nuisance tripping and improving reliability of downstream control circuits and protection devices.
Yes. The enclosure is NEMA 3R-rated with indoor-outdoor Weathershield, and the catalog notes specify a Grade 304 stainless steel enclosure, providing enhanced corrosion resistance and durability for both indoor and outdoor control environments. These features help maintain performance in dusty, humid, or wet factory floors and outdoor equipment housings while meeting UL safety standards.
The transformer is UL Listed, confirming adherence to recognized safety standards for electrical equipment. Its enclosure design supports indoor-outdoor use (Weathershield) and NEMA 3R protection, aligning with common industrial power-distribution requirements. This combination helps ensure compliance during audits and supports installation in regulated manufacturing and data-center-adjacent environments.
With a robust encapsulated construction and a weather-resistant enclosure, maintenance needs are reduced because moisture ingress and dust exposure are minimized. The -5% taps provide voltage compensation to improve performance and reduce nuisance trips, potentially lowering energy waste and downtime. The UL Listing and stainless-steel enclosure contribute to longer service life, lowering replacement and repair costs across multi-site deployments.
