FAQs
BSPD400480D1K is designed for standard electrical panels and control cabinets within industrial automation. With a NEMA 1 indoor enclosure and 14 in L × 10 in W × 10 in H footprint, it integrates with typical BSPD series mounting patterns and common Bussmann protection schemes, supporting straightforward retrofits and new builds.
The device provides a 400 kAIC interrupt rating to rapidly clamp transient overcurrents, preventing damage to downstream PLCs, drives, sensors, and other control electronics. By limiting surge energy entering the control network, it reduces failure rates and extends the life of sensitive equipment.
Yes. The BSPD400480D1K complies with SCAQMD guidelines, supporting installation in California facilities where regulatory compliance and air quality considerations influence equipment approvals and site permitting.
Plan for indoor mounting in a NEMA 1 enclosure within cabinets or electrical rooms. The unit weighs 12 lb and measures 14 in long, 10 in wide, and 10 in high, enabling flexible placement in mid-size panels and retrofit projects without compromising clearance or service access.
The BSPD400480D1K improves uptime by limiting transient-induced faults, reducing maintenance costs, and simplifying compliance paperwork. While ROI varies by site, customers typically see fewer unplanned outages, extended life for drives and sensors, and faster commissioning on new builds or upgrades in automation environments.
