FAQs
The SPC050600D3P is designed for external side mounting, simplifying retrofit work. Start by securing the device to the panel’s side bracket, route conductors to the line and load terminals, and connect a visible power supply to ensure the audible alarm is active. The compact footprint helps minimize panel intrusion while preserving accessibility for maintenance.
SPC050600D3P provides a 50 kA surge rating at 600V Delta. This specification means it clamps transient overvoltages and redirects them away from sensitive equipment connected to 600V three-phase delta circuits, protecting motors, drives, and control electronics from damaging energy pulses during grid or switching events.
Yes. With a NEMA 4X enclosure, the device is well-suited for damp, dusty, or wash-down environments. Industries such as manufacturing, process industries, food & beverage, and data centers benefit from reliable transient protection for panels, drives, and control electronics, reducing maintenance and downtime while meeting rugged application requirements.
The SPC050600D3P is UL 1449 listed, indicating compliance with recognized surge protection standards for electrical equipment. UL 1449 certification is crucial for ensuring the device reliably clamps surges and protects downstream equipment, which helps customers meet safety and reliability requirements in industrial facilities.
The device’s audible alarm enables quick fault detection, reducing MTTR and downtime. The 10-year warranty adds financial predictability, while high surge capability and robust enclosure minimize replacement cycles. Overall, the SPC050600D3P lowers total cost of ownership by protecting critical loads and extending the lifespan of adjacent components.
