80 kA surge rating provides rapid energy absorption to shield downstream devices, reducing the likelihood of damage and unplanned downtime within industrial panels. This translates to increased line reliability and longer life for sensors, drives, and controllers used in automation projects like servo systems and CNC machinery. The 120 V single-phase input matches common plant power, enabling straightforward integration with existing controllers and control panels while minimizing rewiring and commissioning time. NEMA 4X enclosure delivers robust protection against dust, water, and corrosion, allowing installation in wash-down areas, outdoor enclosures, and challenging manufacturing environments without compromising performance. External side mounting simplifies field service and replacement, reducing downtime during maintenance and retrofit projects across automation lines and process facilities. Filtering and alarm capabilities provide continuous monitoring and proactive fault signaling, helping maintenance teams detect issues before they impact production, supporting predictive maintenance and uptime metrics. A 10-year warranty and UL 1449 certification provide procurement confidence and total-cost-of-ownership benefits, aligning with quality systems and supplier consolidation goals for data centers and industrial operations.

FAQs
The SPC080120N6P is designed for external side mounting to simplify installation and service access. To install, mount the unit on the exterior panel surface per the enclosure’s mounting guidelines, connect the line and load terminals following the wiring diagram, verify the 120 V single-phase supply, and secure the device to ensure vibration resistance. This approach minimizes internal space usage while enabling quick field replacement if maintenance is required.
This model features an 80 kA surge current rating and a 120 V voltage rating, configured for single-phase operation. The high surge rating provides robust transient protection for sensitive automation equipment, motors, drives, and PLCs, helping to prevent cascading failures during electrical disturbances.
Yes. With a 120 V single-phase input, NEMA 4X enclosure, and built-in filtration and alarm, this unit is well suited for control panels in data centers, manufacturing lines, and other industrial automation applications. It helps protect critical loads from transients while enabling visibility through its alarm feature, supporting uptime and reliability goals.
The SPC080120N6P is UL 1449 listed for surge protection safety and is housed in a NEMA 4X rated enclosure, suitable for challenging environments. Its 10-year warranty further supports reliability and compliance with procurement standards, making it a trusted choice for quality systems and regulated industrial applications.
Filtration reduces high-frequency noise reaching protected loads, while the alarm provides immediate fault notification. This combination lowers nuisance trips, shortens mean time to repair, and enables proactive maintenance scheduling, contributing to lower operating costs and a faster return on investment for automation equipment and panel upgrades.
