Feature ā Business Impact ā Application The BSPD200240D3K provides a high 200 kAIC interrupt rating, delivering rapid surge clamping that minimizes equipment damage and unplanned downtime in critical power circuits, enabling longer asset life and reduced maintenance costs in manufacturing lines and data centers. This translates to improved uptime metrics and lower incident-related expenses when protecting feeders, motor drives, and switchgear in indoor environments. Feature ā Compatibility ā Application The NEMA 1 enclosure supports safe indoor installation in controlled spaces, simplifying panel integration and reducing dust ingress concerns in office areas, workshops, or equipment rooms. This enclosure compatibility makes retrofits or new builds easier, especially for facilities prioritizing standardization across BSPD series devices and existing Bussmann protection assets. Feature ā Installation ā Application The BSPD series design ensures straightforward installation and replacement, lowering commissioning time and service disruption for maintenance teams while preserving panel density and wire routing efficiency in control cabinets. Feature ā Reliability ā Application The 14 in length, 10 in width, and 7 in height footprint provides predictable mounting clearances in standard electrical enclosures, enabling reliable performance without reconfiguring existing layouts in industrial plants. Feature ā Compliance ā Application SCAQMD compliance is listed as a reference point, with the manufacturer to confirm applicability; when in scope, this supports regional air-quality requirements while maintaining protection integrity in cooling and ventilation-adjacent areas. Feature ā Value proposition ā Application With 6 lb weight and robust Bussmann series lineage, you gain a durable, serviceable surge protector that reduces total cost of ownership by limiting surge-related failures in power distribution networks across manufacturing, process industries, and facilities management.

FAQs
Install the BSPD200240D3K in an indoor-rated, NEMA 1 enclosure with proper panel mounting hardware. Verify clearances around the unit, connect input and output conductors per the Eaton datasheet, and ensure the device is compatible with the BSPD series. After mounting, perform a basic functional test and verify protection indicators are in order to minimize commissioning time.
200 kAIC indicates the maximum interrupt rating the device can safely interrupt in a single surge event, reflecting strong protection against high-energy transients. This rating helps prevent damage to downstream equipment like drives, relays, and contactors, reducing downtime and extending asset life in industrial power networks.
Yes. The device features a NEMA 1 enclosure intended for indoor installations, making it well-suited for manufacturing panels, distribution boards, and control cabinets where controlled environments minimize exposure to dust and moisture. Confirm facility conditions align with the enclosure rating and installation guidelines for best results.
The provided data lists SCAQMD compliance and a NEMA 1 enclosure but does not specify CE or IP ratings. For projects requiring CE or IP certification, contact Eaton to confirm current certifications and any regional approvals applicable to your installation site. Always verify regulatory requirements with your sustainability and compliance teams.
By limiting damaging surge events and reducing unplanned downtime, this device can lower maintenance costs, extend equipment life, and improve uptime in critical lines. The 6 lb unitās compact footprint supports easier retrofit in existing panels, while the 200 kAIC rating provides robust protection for high-energy transients typical of demanding industrial environments.
