Overview

The Hammond Power FC2A0030KB is a general-purpose, three-phase, encapsulated transformer designed for reliable power conversion in commercial and industrial settings. This US-made unit boasts a 30 kVA rating, efficiently transforming 480 VAC Delta primary voltage to a 208Y/120 VAC Wye secondary voltage at a standard 60 Hz frequency. Its robust encapsulated design provides superior protection against airborne contaminants, moisture, and dust, ensuring consistent performance and extended operational life, even in challenging environments. The FC2A0030KB is ideal for applications requiring stable and clean power distribution, such as HVAC systems, lighting panels, manufacturing equipment, and control systems where precise voltage regulation is critical. Featuring a compact footprint, this transformer simplifies installation within control panels, machinery enclosures, and electrical rooms. UL-listed construction further assures compliance with industry safety standards, while its high-efficiency core and windings minimize energy losses during operation. The transformer’s Class B (130°C) insulation system enhances thermal performance, allowing for continuous operation under rated load without overheating. Designed for durability, the FC2A0030KB meets NEMA standards for environmental resistance, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations when properly enclosed. Its low sound level operation (typically under 45 dB) ensures quiet performance in noise-sensitive areas. The unit’s primary and secondary terminals are pre-wired for ease of connection, reducing installation time and potential errors. With a maximum operating temperature of 40°C and an altitude rating of up to 3,300 feet, the FC2A0030KB delivers dependable power conversion across a wide range of operating conditions. Hammond Power’s rigorous testing and quality control processes ensure reliable performance, backed by a standard 1-year warranty. This transformer is a cost-effective and dependable solution for facilities requiring efficient, compliant, and long-lasting power distribution.
