High-energy surge protection and robust ratings: The SPC080240H7P delivers an 80 kAIC interrupt rating for 240V delta systems, ensuring fast diversion of transient energy away from critical loads. This protection reduces the risk of insulation damage, control relay misfires, and downtime, making it ideal for motor starters, drives, and panel assemblies in manufacturing lines and outdoor substations. Filtering and signaling integration: Built-in input filtering with a Form C relay provides dry-contact status feedback and EMI suppression, enabling proactive maintenance and faster fault isolation in PLC-controlled environments. Rugged enclosure for harsh environments: The NEMA 4X enclosure protects against dust, water, and corrosion, extending service life in wash-down areas and dusty facilities, while preserving reliability. Retrofit-friendly installation: External side mounting simplifies integration with existing protection schemes and minimizes cabinet rework, reducing commissioning time and labor costs during upgrades. Warranty and ecosystem: As part of the SPC family, the device fits with complementary protection devices and signaling options, backed by a 10-year warranty for total-cost-of-ownership savings in facility-wide surge protection strategies.

FAQs
Install the unit using external side mounting to minimize cabinet rework. Verify a clean 240V delta supply, connect line and load per Eaton’s wiring diagram, and ensure the device is secured within a compliant enclosure. Confirm proper grounding and observe clearances for heat dissipation. Refer to the official SPC080240H7P datasheet for wiring and torque specifications.
The device provides an 80 kAIC interrupt rating, designed to safely divert high-energy transients away from protected equipment. It is specified for 240V delta (4W+G) systems and includes filtering to manage EMI. This combination reduces protective device nuisance trips and enhances drive and control system reliability in demanding environments.
Yes. The SPD is housed in a NEMA 4X enclosure, offering resistance to dust, water, and corrosion, making it appropriate for outdoor installations and challenging indoor spaces. When used in industrial facilities, this enclosure helps maintain performance under wash-down, humidity, and temperature variation while supporting compliance with safety standards.
The SPC080240H7P is UL 1449 listed, providing essential safety verification for surge suppression devices. The NEMA 4X enclosure rating further confirms suitability for rugged environments. These certifications simplify regulatory compliance, support safe integration into control panels, and help protect warranties by meeting recognized industry standards for electrical protection.
Adopting the SPC080240H7P reduces unplanned downtime by mitigating surge damage to motors, drives, and controllers, which lowers maintenance costs and extends component life. The 10-year warranty adds long-term financial protection, while Form C signaling enables proactive monitoring. In practice, facilities typically see improved uptime, fewer emergency service calls, and clearer budgeting for protection upgrades.
