FAQs
When installing BSPD200240D2K, plan for indoor mounting in a NEMA 1 enclosure with accessible terminals. Verify panel depth and mounting clearance for the 14 inch length and 10 inch width, and ensure wiring practices follow local codes. Use appropriate conductors and secure the device to a stable mounting surface to avoid vibration-related wear during operation.
The 200 kAIC rating indicates the device can safely interrupt a high-energy surge without compromising downstream components. In busy facilities with frequent transients from motors and drives, this rating provides a strong margin against damage to PLCs, drives, and control electronics, reducing replacement costs and downtime.
Yes. The BSPD200240D2K is designed for indoor use in NEMA 1 enclosures and aligns with common control panel architectures. Its dimensions and mounting pattern facilitate straightforward integration into existing MCCs and panel boards, minimizing retrofit complications.
BSPD devices are typically maintenance-free for normal operation, as surge protection elements do not require regular replacement under standard operating conditions. Periodic electrical inspections and functional testing during panel commissioning are recommended to confirm continued protection and ensure wiring integrity.
The BSPD series combines a high energy interrupt rating (200 kAIC) with a durable NEMA 1 enclosure, compact footprint, and compatibility with the Eaton Bussmann protection family. These factors deliver reliable protection for critical loads, streamlined installation, and predictable maintenance—leading to improved uptime and lower total cost of ownership in automation environments.
