FAQs
The BSPD400600D3P measures 14 in in length with a 10 in width and height, weighing 18 lb, making it suitable for many standard control cabinets. Ensure clearance around the NEMA 4X enclosure for heat dissipation and access to conductors, and verify compatibility with existing Bussmann BSPD protection schemes for a seamless retrofit.
A 400 kAIC rating means the device can safely interrupt very high-energy surges without sustaining damage, protecting downstream equipment like drives, PLCs, and motors. This reduces costly downtime and equipment replacement, improves overall system reliability, and supports uptime in demanding facilities such as steel, mining, or process plants.
Yes. The BSPD400600D3P uses a NEMA 4X enclosure, which provides weather resistance and washdown compatibility, making it appropriate for outdoor panels and harsh manufacturing environments while maintaining protection against dust and water ingress.
The BSPD400600D3P is housed in a NEMA 4X enclosure for rugged protection. It carries a 400 kAIC interrupt rating and aligns with SCAQMD compliance as noted by the manufacturer. While CE and SIL certifications are not listed in the provided data, the enclosure rating and surge performance meet common industrial protection needs.
By reducing premature equipment failure from transient surges, the BSPD400600D3P lowers downtime and maintenance costs. The robust enclosure simplifies field servicing and part replacement, delivering a favorable total cost of ownership over the product lifecycle and improving system availability in automation and manufacturing environments.
