FAQs
The SPC050600Y3P is designed for external side mounting, simplifying retrofits into service panels. Its compact dimensions (5.5 in L, 6 in H, 3.19 in W) fit constrained spaces, while the NEMA 4X enclosure protects against dust and moisture, enabling safer, faster installation in industrial environments.
A 50 kA surge rating indicates the device can absorb high-energy transient currents without failure, delivering robust protection for panels feeding motors, drives, and sensitive electronics. This translates to reduced component damage, lower replacement costs, and improved uptime during power quality events.
Yes. The 347/600V Wye rating aligns with common commercial and light industrial distribution schemes, enabling effective surge protection across feeders, switchgear, and panelboards while maintaining safety and compliance with UL 1449 requirements.
The audible alarm is an integrated feature that signals surge events or fault conditions. It typically requires minimal additional wiring for audible notification or integration with building management systems, and its maintenance footprint is low, helping maintenance teams respond quickly.
The SPC050600Y3P carries UL 1449 listing for surge protection devices and a 10-year warranty, offering regulatory assurance and long-term protection. This combination supports project approvals, reduces lifecycle risk, and provides budgeting predictability for procurement teams.
