The 200 kAIC interrupt rating means the BSPD200208Y1K can safely absorb high‑amplitude transients without compromising downstream equipment, reducing failure rates in PLCs, drives, and sensors and lowering downtime costs. With a rugged NEMA 1 enclosure and a standard mounting footprint, it installs quickly in existing panels, enabling faster retrofits and safer maintenance. The BSPD series provides a compact yet durable surge protection solution, offering predictable response to surges in motor drives and switchgear while keeping installation straightforward in space‑constrained panels. Its lightweight 6 lb design and 14 in L × 10 in W × 7 in H footprint simplify handling and field mounting, supporting efficient commissioning and ongoing service. SCAQMD compliance guidance from the manufacturer helps address region‑specific environmental considerations and regulatory expectations, reducing project risk. End-to-end protection for panel boards, industrial control panels, and power distribution systems contributes to lower total cost of ownership and improved uptime.

FAQs
Yes. The BSPD200208Y1K is designed for standard control panels using a NEMA 1 enclosure and a compatible mounting footprint. Its 14 in L Ă— 10 in W Ă— 7 in H dimensions fit typical panel spaces, and the device weighs 6 lb for manageable field handling. For retrofits, verify panel opening size and conductor clearances, then mount using OEM guidelines to ensure proper ingress protection and wiring layout.
The BSPD200208Y1K carries an interrupt rating of 200 kAIC, meaning it can safely interrupt large transient currents without compromising upstream equipment. This specification directly translates to enhanced protection for sensitive devices such as PLCs, drives, and relays. Combined with the robust enclosure and Bussmann surge technology, it minimizes the risk of catastrophic downstream damage during lightning events or switching surges.
This model uses a rugged NEMA 1 enclosure suitable for indoor, dry environments typical of many control panels. While not rated for wet or highly corrosive conditions, it provides reliable surge protection within standard manufacturing and process facilities. For harsher environments, consider enclosure upgrades or a model with higher ingress protection and additional environmental ratings, and consult Eaton for recommended options.
The product data specifies SCAQMD compliance with a manufacturer contact for confirmation. There is no explicit listing of CE or SIL certifications in the provided data. If regulatory scope includes CE marking or SIL, confirm with Eaton or the distributor. For projects in California, document SCAQMD guidance and ensure any necessary permits or emissions considerations are addressed per local requirements.
The BSPD200208Y1K mitigates costly surge events that can cause downtime, equipment damage, and maintenance cycles. By protecting downstream devices, facilities typically see reduced repair costs and fewer unplanned outages, leading to lower total cost of ownership. The straightforward installation in standard panels also shortens commissioning time, improving overall equipment availability and boosting productivity in manufacturing and process environments.
