The Energy Policy Act of 2005 (H.R. 6) requires Distribution Transformers manufactured after January 1, 2007 to meet specific energy efficiency requirements. EPAct 2005 defines the term "distribution transformers" as any transformer which:

• Has an input voltage of 34.5 kV or less
• Has an output voltage of 600 V or less
• Is rated for operation at a frequency of 60 Hz
• Has a capacity of 10 kVA to 2500 kVA for liquid-immersed units and 15 kVA to 2500 kVA for dry-type units

Hevi-Duty encapsulated transformers are rated for Hazardous Locations (Class 1, Division 2, Group A-D) as well as harsh industrial environments. Encapsulation and rugged NEMA 3R enclosures protect the transformer from dust, moisture, and provide extra shock and vibration resistance. Hevi-Duty UL listed transformers fully comply with the latest addition of the National Electrical Code for Class 1, Division 2, Group A-D locations when installed in compliance with NEC 501-2(b).

The SBE series (encapsulated and open style) Sola transformer is available from 50 - 5000 VA, 55°C Rise and features copper windings and encapsulation (through 1000 VA) for longer life and protection from the environment.

• 55°C Rise, 105°C Insulation to Minimize Heat
• 10-20% More VA Capacity
• Superior Voltage Regulation
• UL Listed and CSA Certified
• Rated for 50 or 60 Hz Use
• Epoxy Encapsulated Design

Sola/Hevi-Duty's encapsulated transformers are suited for harsh industrial use as well as for Hazardous Location (Class 1, Division 2, Group A-D) and harsh industrial environments.

• Broad Line: Single Phase: 0.5 KVA - 25 KVA OR Three Phase: 3 KVA - 45 KVA

• NEMA 3R outdoor enclosures standard
• Shielded for quality power on sizes 1 KVA and above
• Available in NEMA 12 or 4X enclosures

The MCR Hardwired Series constant voltage transformer provides excellent noise filtering and surge suppression to protect connected equipment from damage, degradation or misoperation.

• VA Ratings: 120 to 15,000 VA. Input Voltage Range: +10/-20% of nominal
• ±3% output voltage regulation
• Acts as a step-up or step-down transformer
• Galvanic isolation provides exceptional circuit protection

• Surge Suppression: Up to 6,000 Volt surges

Sola Hevi-Duty drive isolation transformers are specifically designed to handle the mechanical stresses, voltage demands and harmonics associated with SCR applications.

• Available from 7.5 thru 440 KVA, 3 Phase, 60 Hz
• Isolation minimizes load disturbances caused by the SCR drive
• UL-3R enclosures when used with optional weather shield
• Taps on all units for adjustments to incoming source voltage. Full capacity secondary neutral as required by the National Electric Code.
• Shielding attenuates line to ground noise
• 10+2 year Sola/Hevi-Duty warranty

Superior voltage regulation of ±1% sets the CVS Series Sola constant voltage transformers apart from other power conditioning technologies on the market.

• VA Ratings: 30 to 7,500 VA. Input Voltage Range: +10/-20% of nominal
• Output Harmonic Distortion: 3% total RMS content at full load
• Noise Isolation: 40 dB common and normal mode
• Surge Suppression: Up to 6,000 Volt surges are suppressed to safe levels per ANSI/IEEE C62.41-1980 Class A and B waveforms.
• Operating Temperature: -20°C to +50°C
• Acts as a Step-up/Step-down Transformer
• No maintenance required

Sola Hevi-Duty's low temperature rise transformers feature a 220°C insulation system and temperature rise of only 80°C or 115°C under full nameplate load. The result is 13-21% lower operating losses than conventional 150°C rise units.

• Shielded for quality power
• UL-3R outdoor enclosure with optional weather shield
• Thermal reserve allows for continuous overload operation at 150°C rise
• Aluminum windings for greater insulation life
• Class 220°C insulation system, 115°C or 80°C rise
• Single and three phase availability

Sola/Hevi-Duty buck-boost transformers are designed to supply power to low voltage lighting circuits, control panels or other systems requiring 12, 16, 24, 32, or 48 Volts. When connected as an insulating transformer, the transformer's capacity matches the nameplate KVA rating. Sola Hevi-Duty buck-boost transformers are also suited for low voltage landscape lighting. They are UL listed for outdoor service and their compact size makes them the perfect solution for providing power to accent lighting applications. When using dimmers for low voltage applications, use only dimmers designed and rated for use with magnetic loads.
