High-energy surge capability: The BSPD400600D3K provides a 400 kAIC interrupt rating, delivering robust defense against damaging transients. This translates to fewer downstream faults, reduced repair costs, and greater line availability for critical processes. In practice, this level of protection helps protect motor drives, controllers, and sensitive electronics from damaging spikes during switching and grid events. Durable indoor protection: With a NEMA 1 enclosure, the device is suited for dry indoor locations, simplifying mounting inside standard control panels. The enclosure design also helps mitigate dust ingress and supports consistent wiring and thermal performance during operation. This means faster installation, fewer field adjustments, and reliable long-term performance in busy industrial environments.Series compatibility and procurement efficiency: As part of the Eaton Bussmann BSPD family, the BSPD400600D3K integrates with nearby BSPD devices, aiding spare parts planning and future upgrades. The catalog number and UPC streamline ordering, inventory management, and cross-referencing across internal procurement systems. In plants with multiple lines, standardizing on BSPD reduces training time for maintenance staff.Compact footprint with clear specs: Measuring 14 inches long by 10 inches high and 10 inches wide, and weighing 12 pounds, it fits inside common panel enclosures without aggressive alterations. The predictable dimensions and weight simplify mounting and handling during installation, maintenance, or retrofits. This translates to lower labor costs and shorter downtime when replacing existing protection devices.Compliance and ongoing support: SCAQMD compliance is noted by the manufacturer, reinforcing regulatory alignment for facilities with emissions considerations. Access to Eaton datasheets and the BSPD series guidance helps design engineers validate protection strategies quickly and maintain compliance during site expansions.

FAQs
The BSPD400600D3K is designed for dry indoor locations and fits inside standard control panels. Its NEMA 1 enclosure and 14x10x10 inch footprint (weighing 12 lb) make it suitable for retrofit and new-build applications in industrial environments such as manufacturing lines, machine control cabinets, and power distribution panels.
The device carries SCAQMD compliance per the manufacturer, along with a NEMA 1 enclosure suitable for indoor use and a 400 kAIC interrupt rating. It also lists the UPC 786685934686 for procurement traceability and catalog BSPD400600D3K for ordering.
With a 400 kAIC interrupt rating, the BSPD400600D3K can interrupt high-energy transients before they propagate to sensitive equipment. This reduces the likelihood of motor drive damage, control electronics upset, and downstream faults, resulting in lower downtime and maintenance costs.
Plan for indoor, dry-panel mounting given the NEMA 1 enclosure. The device’s dimensions (14 in L x 10 in H x 10 in W) and 12 lb weight simplify handling and fitment within conventional panel spaces. Ensure space for wiring and clearances per your panel design and consider standardized BSPD series parts for future upgrades.
By reducing surge-related failures and downtime, the BSPD400600D3K lowers repair and replacement costs and extends asset life. Standardization across sites with the BSPD family also streamlines training and procurement, offering predictable maintenance planning and lower total cost of ownership over time.
