HS5FB3AS

Overview

The HS5FB3AS is a 3kVA autotransformer from the SolaHD HS5 series. It features a primary voltage of 240/480V and a secondary voltage of 120/240V. The unit has a +115K temperature rise rating and is designed for chassis mount installation. This encapsulated transformer is rated for hazardous locations and harsh industrial environments, complying with UL Listed and NEMA Type standards.

Feature Summary

• Encapsulated construction for hazardous location safety
• Chassis mount design for secure integration
• Rated for harsh industrial environments

Applications

• Industrial automation systems
• Embedded electronics applications
• Hazardous location power distribution

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering code matches the required voltage configuration and temperature rise rating. Confirm that the chassis mount form factor aligns with the mechanical constraints of the target enclosure. Ensure the hazardous location rating meets the specific zone requirements of the installation site before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a 3kVA capacity is required for stepping down or adjusting voltage between 240/480V and 120/240V. The encapsulated design makes it suitable for environments where standard ventilated transformers are prohibited. Consider the +115K temperature rise when evaluating thermal management in enclosed spaces.

Part Context

This component belongs to the SolaHD HS5 series of non-ventilated encapsulated transformers. The series covers ratings from 50 VA to 45 kVA. These units are manufactured by SolaHD, a brand associated with Emerson Electric Co., and are specifically engineered for durability in demanding industrial settings.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacement requires matching the 3kVA rating, 240/480V primary, and 120/240V secondary specifications. Verify that any substitute part maintains the same encapsulation type and hazardous location certification to ensure compliance with existing safety standards.
