FAQs
Install BSPD300480D2P using external side mounting to minimize enclosure modifications and to fit standard control panels. Ensure the enclosure is compatible with a NEMA 4X rating for dust, water, and corrosion resistance. Use proper wiring practices per Eaton installation guidelines and verify the catalog number BSPD300480D2P and UPC 786685934150 are documented for asset tracking.
BSPD300480D2P provides a 300 kAIC interrupt rating, capable of diverting high-energy transients away from sensitive loads. This protection is suitable for industrial control panels, PLCs, motor drives, and distribution cabinets where surge events could cause downtime or damage. The device is designed for use in harsh environments thanks to its NEMA 4X enclosure and robust construction.
Yes. The BSPD300480D2P uses a NEMA 4X enclosure, which is designed to withstand dust, water exposure, and corrosive conditions typical of outdoor and washdown environments. This makes it suitable for outdoor panels, process skids, and exposed electrical racks, helping maintain protection and uptime even in challenging facilities.
The device features a NEMA 4X enclosure for protective enclosures and carries SCAQMD compliance guidance from the manufacturer. While it adheres to practical enclosure and protection standards, always confirm final regulatory compliance requirements for your specific site and jurisdiction. The catalog BSPD300480D2P and UPC 786685934150 aid in documentation and approvals.
Deploying BSPD300480D2P typically reduces downtime costs by protecting critical control equipment from transient surges, extending asset life, and lowering maintenance frequency. The 300 kAIC protection, reliable NEMA 4X enclosure, and easy external side mounting enable quicker installation and predictable performance, contributing to faster project timelines and long-term energy reliability in industrial facilities.
