Feature: Encapsulated construction with aluminum windings shields the core and windings from moisture and contaminants. This protection translates into higher reliability and significantly lower maintenance in damp, dusty, or vibrating environments. Application: perfect for machine control panels, outdoor-rated enclosures, and harsh factory corners where uptime matters. Feature: 0.25 kVA, single-phase design with 60 Hz operation and a 480 V to 208 V secondary. Business Impact: supports common automation loads without over-sizing, reducing panel footprint and wiring complexity. Application: directly replaces older transformers in control circuits, enabling smoother integration with standard automation components. Feature: NEMA 3R enclosure and indoor-outdoor rating provide weather-resistant performance. Impact: ensures safe operation across seasonal changes and rooftop or factory floor installations, cutting climate-related downtime. Application: suitable for indoor spaces adjacent to outdoor equipment, as well as exposed indoor locations. Feature: UL Listed certification simplifies procurement and regulatory compliance. Impact: accelerates approval cycles for equipment builds and reduces risk during audits. Application: ideal for panel assemblies in regulated industries where safety certifications are mandatory. Feature: Compact footprint (4.06 in length, 4.87 in width, 8.97 in height) and 12 lb weight enable easy mounting in tight panels. Impact: lower cabinet size, easier retrofits, and reduced installation labor. Application: retrofit projects and new installations with limited space. Feature: Wiring connection 536B and no tap size simplify installation in standard electrical cabinets. Impact: faster wiring and fewer mistake-prone steps. Application: compatible with common control wiring harnesses and industry-standard connections.
