SPC
The SPC050415Y3P offers a 50 kA surge rating, delivering strong transient energy absorption to protect critical equipment such as motors, drives, and PLCs. This reduces unplanned downtime, extends asset life, and lowers repair costs by keeping voltage spikes from reaching sensitive electronics. The 240/400V Wye configuration ensures compatibility with standard three‑phase power systems, simplifying integration and reducing wiring mistakes during upgrades or retrofits. Its external side mounting enables straightforward installation on existing panels or in new builds, supporting faster commissioning and minimal service interruptions. A rugged NEMA 4X enclosure provides durable environmental protection, enabling reliable operation in dusty, wet, or washdown environments common to manufacturing floors and food & beverage facilities. The audible alarm provides immediate local notification of surge events, improving maintenance planning and operator awareness. A 10‑year warranty reinforces long‑term value, while a compact form factor (5.5 in L × 6 in H × 3.19 in W) fits tight panel spaces without sacrificing surge performance. Coupled with UL 1449 listing, this device offers a proven, standards‑based path to robust power quality across multiple lines and control architectures.

FAQs
The SPC050415Y3P mounts externally on the side of the enclosure, designed for straightforward retrofits or new builds. Its compact footprint (5.5 in L × 6 in H × 3.19 in W) fits tight panel spaces, and the installation sequence is straightforward: secure to a side panel, connect 240/400V Wye phase lines, and integrate the local audible alarm for immediate feedback during surge events.
Yes. The device is rated for 240/400V Wye configurations, making it suitable for common industrial three‑phase power architectures. This compatibility reduces wiring complexity and helps maintain proper performance when upgrading existing panels or integrating with motor drives and PLC inputs.
The audible alarm signals a surge event detected by the SPD, prompting immediate local attention. Respond by identifying impacted loads, inspecting connected equipment for signs of transient damage, and verifying panel protection status. This enables rapid containment, helps document events for maintenance records, and supports ongoing power quality management.
The SPC050415Y3P is UL 1449 listed and housed in a NEMA 4X enclosure, providing reliable protection in demanding environments. These features support compliance with safety standards and enable installation in washdown or dusty industrial settings while maintaining surge protection performance over a long service life.
Implementing the SPC050415Y3P delivers measurable ROI through reduced downtime, extended equipment life, and lower maintenance costs. With a 50 kA rating, 10‑year warranty, and straightforward installation, facility leaders can unify protection across panels and drives, simplify procurement, and improve overall power reliability in manufacturing, processes, and automation systems.
