FAQs
When deploying SPC080240S6P, verify external side mounting compatibility with your enclosure footprint and ensure clearance for wiring. Use appropriate shielded conductors, observe UL 1449 guidelines, and connect to a properly grounded system. The NEMA 4X enclosure supports washdown environments, while the 120/240 V split-phase input matches common panel configurations.
An 80 kAIC interrupt rating means the protection device can safely interrupt large surge currents without compromising the panel or equipment. This reduces the likelihood of insulation damage, protects drives and PLCs, and minimizes nuisance trips that disrupt production lines. It's especially beneficial in facilities with high transient activity.
Yes. The unit is housed in a NEMA 4X enclosure designed for damp and washdown-prone areas, enabling installation in outdoor panels and harsh indoor locations. External side mounting also simplifies retrofits, while the UL 1449 listing confirms compliance with safety standards for rugged industrial use.
The device includes filtration to suppress noise and an alarm feature to signal fault conditions. These features support preventive maintenance by providing early warnings and improving system visibility. Remote monitoring integration is feasible through compatible annunciators or SCADA interfaces, aiding uptime and maintenance planning.
The SPC080240S6P carries UL 1449 certification and a 10-year warranty, underscoring safety compliance and long-term reliability. These protections help organizations meet regulatory requirements, lower total cost of ownership, and justify procurement decisions for critical process protection.
