SPC
The SPC080240H4P is engineered for 240V delta (4W+G) systems, aligning with common industrial panel configurations and minimizing misapplication risk. This configuration delivers fast transient suppression near critical drives and PLCs, reducing nuisance tripping and wear on protective devices. The result is steadier control performance and a more predictable maintenance window. With an 80 kAIC interrupt rating, the device can absorb large high-energy surges without compromising downstream equipment. This resilience yields measurable uptime gains, fewer component replacements, and lower maintenance costs in environments such as metal fabrication, packaging lines, and material handling. Its NEMA 4X enclosure provides reliable protection against dust, water, and corrosion, enabling installation in both indoor and outdoor locations. External side mounting simplifies retrofits and panel integration by eliminating the need for internal space or rearranged wiring, cutting installation time and reducing project risk in new builds or upgrades. The built-in Form C relay supports remote status signaling, alarms, and controller integration. This enables straightforward PLC or SCADA interfacing for fault indication and process control, improving maintenance response times and enabling proactive energy management without additional hardware. UL 1449 certification confirms safety performance while the SPC series compatibility ensures a consistent protective strategy across panels and MCCs. The product ships with a 10-year warranty and a straightforward installation footprint, delivering long-term reliability, easier compliance reporting, and a solid return on investment. Compact footprint and easy integration with external side mounting further streamline retrofits in crowded control cabinets.
