FAQs
Installation follows the manufacturer’s datasheet: mount the unit on the external side of the panel, connect to the appropriate line terminals for 480V delta, and wire the device according to the form C relay and alarm outputs for remote status. Use proper panel space and routing to minimize impedance, and verify seals for the NEMA 4X enclosure to maintain protection.
With an 80 kAIC interrupt rating and a 480V Delta rating, the SPC080480D5P can absorb large transient surges that commonly occur on motor drives and PLC panels. The Form C alarm relay enables immediate remote signaling, supporting proactive maintenance and faster fault isolation in control cabinets and automation enclosures.
Yes, the SPC080480D5P is UL 1449 listed, confirming conformance to industry surge protection standards. It carries a 10-year warranty, which helps reduce lifecycle costs and provides long-term assurance for mission-critical equipment protected by this device across industrial facilities.
Routine checks should verify the alarm signaling is functioning and the Form C relay indicates a healthy state. Schedule periodic inspections to confirm enclosure integrity (NEMA 4X) and inspect connections. In high-surge environments, plan for replacement after severe events to maintain protection and minimize downtime.
The device measures 5.5 inches in depth, 6 inches in height, and 3.19 inches in width, with a weight of 2.5 pounds. Its external side mounting and compact footprint simplify retrofits in crowded switchgear, enabling straightforward integration into existing 480V delta panels and control enclosures.
