High surge capability and clear fault signaling drive tangible business outcomes. The SPC080240S5P offers an 80 kAIC interrupt rating and an 080 kA surge rating to protect downstream equipment from transients, reducing unplanned downtime and extending the life of connected motors, drives, and PLCs. In practice, this means fewer surprise failures during voltage sags or switching events, which translates to smoother production lines and lower maintenance costs. The device’s 120/240 V split‑phase rating matches common industrial feeders, enabling reliable protection across panel boards and MCCs without the need for custom configurations. Built into a compact, externally mounted package, it supports fast field retrofits and minimizes panel disruption during installation. By integrating an Alarm and Form C relay, maintenance teams gain immediate fault visibility and remote signaling for condition monitoring and predictive maintenance programs. This combination of protection, visibility, and installation ease supports compliant, uninterrupted operation across manufacturing floors and critical process environments.

FAQs
The SPC080240S5P is designed for external side mounting, allowing retrofits with minimal panel disruption. Ensure the device is securely mounted on a suitable exterior surface of the enclosure, connect to the 120/240 V supply as per the wiring diagram, and wire the Alarm/Form C relay to your monitoring system if remote fault indication is required. Always confirm enclosure integrity to maintain NEMA 4X protection.
Key specs include an 80 kAIC interrupt rating and an 080 kA surge rating, with a 120/240 V split-phase operating voltage. It is UL 1449 listed and housed in a NEMA 4X enclosure. The unit provides an Alarm and Form C relay for fault signaling and is intended for external side mounting in panel boards and MCCs, supporting reliable surge protection for critical loads.
Yes. The NEMA 4X enclosure rating provides ingress protection appropriate for harsh or outdoor environments, while the 120/240 V split-phase protection covers common industrial feeders. This makes the SPC080240S5P well suited for data centers near loading docks, manufacturing floors, and outdoor equipment cabins where robust, weather-resistant protection is required.
The SPC080240S5P is UL 1449 listed, ensuring compliance with essential surge protection safety standards. It features a rugged NEMA 4X enclosure for environmental protection and includes an Alarm/Form C relay for fault signaling, enabling integration with plant monitoring systems and preventive maintenance programs.
By limiting transient damage to downstream equipment, the SPC080240S5P reduces unplanned downtime and extends asset life, delivering cost savings through fewer panel outages and longer replacement intervals. The remote fault signaling supports proactive maintenance, minimizing manual inspections and enabling safer, more efficient outage planning.
