Feature → Business Impact → Application: The S48N12P02P delivers 2 kVA of power from a 480 V primary to a 120 V secondary, enabling reliable control circuit operation in compact footprints, which reduces panel space needs and wiring complexity in machine centers. This translates to measurable efficiency gains and lower installation costs, particularly in mixed-voltage environments common to packaging lines and process equipment. Feature → Application → 60 Hz single-phase compatibility: Optimizes integration with US power systems, minimizing harmonics and compatibility issues in automation rocontrollers and motor starters. This supports rapid panel churn and easier retrofits without extensive power conditioning. Feature → Hardware resilience → NEMA 3R enclosure and aluminum coil: Provides weather resistance for indoor-outdoor installations, reducing enclosure damage risk and extending service intervals in outdoor-control kiosks and remote equipment bays. Feature → Wiring and protection → 511C wiring, no taps: Simplifies integration with standardized harnesses and eliminates tap-changer maintenance, cutting commissioning time and ongoing service costs. Feature → Certification and warranty → UL Listed CSA Certified, Eaton warranty: Assures compliance for regulated facilities and OEMs, while safeguarding against unexpected downtime through a structured warranty window and responsive support. Feature → Installation and compatibility → 68P frame and compact dimensions: Facilitates mounting in tight spaces and compatibility with common enclosure sizes, easing field installation and reducing the need for custom mounting hardware.

FAQs
The transformer features a NEMA 3R enclosure designed for indoor-outdoor use, making it suitable for control panels in both shop floors and outdoor equipment enclosures. Its aluminum coil and rugged construction support reliable operation in varying temperatures and weather conditions, reducing protection-related concerns during installation.
This unit provides a 480 V primary input and a 120 V secondary output with a 2 kVA rating. It operates at 60 Hz in a single-phase configuration, which aligns with common US industrial power systems and control circuits.
Yes. The transformer is UL Listed and CSA Certified, offering recognized safety and quality assurance for industrial installations and OEM applications, helping meet regulatory requirements in many facilities.
Consider mounting on a compatible 68P frame enclosure or dedicated panel space, ensure proper clearance for cooling, and use the 511C wiring configuration. With no tap changer, plan for exact primary and secondary voltages (480 V to 120 V) and route wiring accordingly to minimize voltage drop and maximize reliability.
The Eaton S48N12P02P carries Eaton's warranty policy with a one-year from installation or eighteen months from shipment, whichever comes first. Routine maintenance is minimal due to epoxy encapsulation and robust enclosure, supporting reduced downtime and predictable lifecycle costs in high-use automation environments.
