FAQs
Plan for external side mounting on a compatible panel with a NEMA 4X enclosure, ensuring adequate space for wiring and clearance. Use the Form C relay and alarm output for remote status signaling, and wire to 120/208V Wye circuits per local codes. Verify UL 1449 compliance and observe manufacturer mounting guidelines to avoid voiding warranties.
An 80 kA surge rating means the device can absorb higher-energy transients without letting excess energy reach protected equipment. This reduces the likelihood of downstream damage to drives, controllers, and power supplies, which translates to lower maintenance costs and fewer unplanned outages in facilities with frequent large surges.
Yes. With 120/208V Wye service, a rugged NEMA 4X enclosure, and integrated alarm signaling, the SPC080208Y8P is well-suited for data centers, control rooms, and manufacturing lines. Its filtering capability further reduces EMI/EMI-related disturbances, improving equipment reliability and uptime in mission-critical environments.
This surge protector is UL 1449 listed, confirming its safety and performance under industry standards. The NEMA 4X enclosure supports outdoor and harsh-environment installations. A 10-year warranty also provides assurance of long-term protection, reducing replacement risks and ensuring ongoing compliance with maintenance regimes.
ROI comes from reduced downtime, longer equipment life, and lower maintenance costs due to improved surge mitigation. The 10-year warranty minimizes replacement expenses, while remote signaling via the alarm and Form C relay enables proactive service. In facilities with frequent surges or strict uptime requirements, the total cost of ownership improves over time.
