Overview

The Hammond Power SK3A0225KB4K is a 225 kVA, three-phase K-Factor 4 transformer engineered to effectively mitigate harmonic distortion in applications with non-linear loads. This transformer operates within the 600V class and is compliant with DOE2016 and NRCan 2019 energy efficiency standards, ensuring adherence to current regulatory requirements. The primary voltage configuration is 480V delta (480D PV), and the secondary output is 208Y/120V wye (208Y/120 SV), making it suitable for facilities utilizing a mix of load types. Constructed with copper windings and featuring a shielded design, this unit offers enhanced durability and protection against electromagnetic interference (EMI). Its K-Factor rating of 4 specifically addresses the challenges posed by harmonic currents generated by equipment such as variable frequency drives (VFDs), uninterruptible power supply (UPS) systems, and other non-linear loads. Manufactured in the USA, the SK3A0225KB4K is an ideal choice for industrial, commercial, and institutional settings demanding reliable power quality and energy-efficient operation. This transformer is built to last and perform under demanding conditions.
