FAQs
The BSPD300208Y1P uses external side mounting, designed to fit standard industrial enclosures and support easy field installation. Its NEMA 4X enclosure provides environmental protection while keeping mounting accessible, making it suitable for both indoor panels and outdoor installations in harsh environments.
The BSPD300208Y1P has a 300 kAIC interrupt rating, meaning it can safely interrupt high fault currents without compromising the protection circuit. This high rating minimizes the risk of catastrophic device failure during lightning or switching transients, preserving downstream equipment.
The product lists SCAQMD compliance as a noted specification (contact manufacturer for documentation). This indicates regional regulatory alignment; users should obtain the official documentation to verify applicability to their facility’s environmental and compliance requirements.
Ideal for industrial panels, switchgear housings, machine rooms, and outdoor enclosures, the BSPD300208Y1P provides robust transient protection for electrical distribution systems. It is particularly advantageous in facilities with frequent surges or where uptime is critical to production lines.
The device measures 14 inches in length, 10 inches in height, and 10 inches in width, with a weight of 18 pounds. This compact footprint and moderate weight simplify handling, site readiness, and integration into existing layouts without requiring major structural adjustments.
