Eaton Z12N29S02 Hazardous Transformer - Class 1 Div 2
Part Number: Z12N29S02
Quick Summary
Z12N29S02 Hazardous Location Transformer is a compact, three-phase device designed to safely step down line power for equipment operating in Class 1 Division 2 environments. In hazardous zones, standard transformers can fail to contain arcs or moisture, leading to costly downtime and safety risk. Certifications for hazardous location equipment vary; confirm with the manufacturer for current SIL, CE, or IP ratings. For value, this transformer combines rugged encapsulation with a 2 kVA rating and indoor-outdoor versatility to support reliable, compliant power delivery. This enables engineers and procurement teams to specify a single, scalable solution across multiple sites.

Encapsulated EPZ design provides superior protection against moisture, dust, and arc ignition, reducing the risk of equipment downtime in hazardous environments and enabling safer installations in indoor-outdoor spaces. The aluminum coil offers corrosion resistance and lighter weight, translating to lower handling costs and easier commissioning. A 2 kVA VA rating supports mid-range loads for control panels and small motors, delivering predictable performance without over-sizing, which can lower equipment and energy costs. The three-phase 120 V primary and 208 V secondary configuration, combined with 50/60 Hz compatibility, ensures seamless integration with common industrial power rails and timing coordination for synchronized processes. The rugged 68H frame, non-tapped design, and 519X wiring connection simplify mounting, wiring, and serviceability in tight spaces, while the indoor-outdoor Weathershield supports versatile site deployment. Acknowledging field needs, Eaton provides a clear warranty path (25-000), offering peace of mind during installation and operation. Common applications include chemical processing, oil and gas facilities, and other hazard-prone environments where reliability and safety are critical.

FAQs
For safe installation in Class 1 Division 2 environments, plan for the EPZ encapsulated design and 68H frame fit within your panel layout. Use the 519X wiring connection for clean terminations and ensure the unit remains within its indoor-outdoor rating to match site exposure. Verify mounting clearance and cooling in confined spaces to maintain the 115 °C rise rating without derating.
The 2 kVA rating supports moderate control loads and small motors fed from a 120 V primary down to 208 V secondary in three-phase configurations. This enables efficient power distribution for equipment suites and control panels while maintaining voltage accuracy and thermal limits at 50/60 Hz, reducing the need for oversized transformers in many applications.
The Z12N29S02 is specified for hazardous location use as a Class 1 Division 2 device. Certification details should be confirmed with Eaton during procurement, as the catalog lists 'Certification: Contact Manufacturer'. This ensures you meet your project’s SIL, CE, or IP expectations and any site-specific compliance requirements.
Eaton provides a warranty under policy 25-000, offering one year from installation or eighteen months from shipment, whichever occurs first. This coverage supports commissioning, commissioning-related field adjustments, and post-installation reliability, helping to protect your project ROI in case of manufacturing-related issues.
Ideal for chemical plants, oil and gas facilities, refineries, and other industrial environments requiring safe, compliant power distribution, the Z12N29S02 delivers reliable three-phase power with robust moisture/arc containment. Its indoor-outdoor capability and EPZ design support flexible installation across multiple zones while meeting common industry load profiles and maintenance workflows.
