FAQs
The S48N11S15SS4X is a 15 kVA single‑phase, encapsulated transformer designed for control panels. Install with the primary connected to 480 V and the secondary wired to 120/240 V loads using the standard terminals provided. Ensure proper panel mounting, maintain required clearance for ventilation, and follow the manufacturer’s installation sheet for torque specs and wiring routing to preserve isolation and safety margins.
Key specs include a 15 kVA power rating, single‑phase operation, primary voltage 480 V and secondary 120/240 V, 115°C rise, and NEMA 4X encapsulated enclosure. These features enable isolated, reliable power delivery in rugged environments while supporting compact panel designs and straightforward wiring in control applications.
Yes. The NEMA 4X encapsulated construction provides weatherproof and corrosion-resistant protection, making it appropriate for outdoor or damp indoor installations. For outdoor use, ensure compatible enclosure mounting and that wiring entries are rated for the environment to maintain IP protection and safe operation.
Manufacturer certifications for this model are specified as 'Contact Manufacturer' in the data. In practice, transformers like this often align with common safety standards and may include CE markings depending on the variant and region. Always confirm current certifications with the manufacturer or authorized distributor before final acceptance or regulatory submission.
Encapsulated transformers are designed for low maintenance due to sealed insulation and robust construction. For lifecycle planning, verify enclosure integrity (gasket condition, seals), check for any signs of moisture ingress, monitor ambient temperature to avoid derating beyond 115°C rise, and schedule periodic inspections of mounting hardware and electrical connections to sustain reliable performance in harsh environments.
