Eaton SPC050240H2P Surge Protection Device - UL1283 5th Edition

50 kA per mode surge rating is engineered to absorb high-energy transients without compromising protection. By limiting peak voltages at the point of use, it reduces insulation stress, protects control electronics, and minimizes nuisance tripping in crowded panel racks. For critical lines such as PLCs, servo drives, and I/O modules, this level of protection translates into measurable uptime gains and lower replacement costs over the life of the installation.\n\nConfigured for 240V delta systems with a 4W+G arrangement, the SPD aligns with common industrial feeders, simplifying electrical design and reducing the risk of misconfiguration. The device coordinates with upstream protection devices to provide selective protection, ensuring only faulted sections divert surge currents. In practice, engineers see faster commissioning and fewer field adjustments after the initial install.\n\nNEMA 4X enclosure delivers durable, weatherproof protection against moisture, dust, and washdown environments, extending service life in harsh facilities and outdoor cabinets. The robust enclosure also supports cleanability and corrosion resistance, which matters in food and beverage, chemical processing, and manufacturing floors. This rugged build supports long-term reliability in environments that demand rigorous maintenance intervals.\n\nUL 1449 listing confirms surge protection performance under standard test conditions, while UL1283 5th Edition filtering reduces EMI/RFI that can affect sensitive sensors and communication links. This combination helps facilities meet regulatory and internal compliance requirements without adding separate filtration solutions. Users gain confidence that installation, testing, and routine checks stay within expected industry guidelines.\n\nExternal side mounting simplifies retrofits and upgrades by allowing direct alignment with existing panels and busbars, minimizing wiring extensions and downtime. The SPC series family offers consistent fit, wiring schemes, and diagnostic practices across Eaton protection devices, which reduces training time for technicians and speeds repairs. Together, these features deliver a practical, scalable solution for industrial protection across multiple lines and sites.
