Feature: 400 kAIC interrupt rating. Business impact: this high-energy rating absorbs and diverts powerful surges away from protected loads, reducing the likelihood of catastrophic failures and costly downtime. Application: ideal for motor drives, programmable logic controllers, and other critical loads in manufacturing lines and heavy equipment settings. This rating provides headroom for future expansion and ensures protection remains effective as facility loads scale. Feature: NEMA 4X enclosure. Business impact: weatherproofing and corrosion resistance extend protection in harsh environments, lowering replacement cycles and service costs. Application: suitable for outdoor panels, wash-down areas, and exposed control cabinets where reliability matters. This enclosure also simplifies long-term maintenance scheduling thanks to durable materials. Additionally, the rugged materials simplify cleaning and maintenance in dirty environments. Feature: Robust footprint of 14 in length, 10 in width, and 10 in height with an 18 lb weight. Business impact: compact yet sturdy packaging enables easier handling, faster install times, and reduced labor for field retrofits. Application: fits standard electrical dashboards and equipment racks in retrofit projects and new installations. The compact footprint also reduces cabinet depth requirements by allowing closer component spacing. This combination also supports safer handling during transportation due to weight distribution. Feature: BSPD series compatibility. Business impact: seamless integration with Eaton’s protection ecosystem provides scalable, multi-stage surge protection. Application: builds a cohesive protection strategy across multiple panels and feeders without complex reconfiguration. This compatibility minimizes engineering time and supports phased implementation. The datasheet and installation diagrams further streamline commissioning. Feature: Compliance notes and certifications. Business impact: alignment with SCAQMD considerations (manufacturer-confirmed) supports regional environmental and regulatory workflows. Application: facilities operating in districts with air quality management requirements benefit from documented protection strategy. The overall solution improves risk management and auditing readiness. The datasheet and technical support options help engineering teams validate compliance.
