FAQs
For proper installation, plan for external side mounting within the panel footprint (approximately 3.19 in wide by 6 in tall), ensuring adequate clearance for wiring and the Form C relay. Verify 120 V single-phase supply and observe safe disconnect practices. Confirm the enclosure rating supports your environment, and use appropriate strain reliefs for long-term reliability.
SPC100120N4P is rated for 120 V single-phase systems and delivers up to 100 kAIC interrupt capability. This combination protects auxiliary loads, drives, and control circuits in standard industrial panels, reducing nuisance tripping and protecting sensitive electronics from transient events that commonly occur in manufacturing floors.
Yes. The device comes in a rugged NEMA 4X enclosure, designed to withstand damp, washdown, and outdoor conditions. UL 1449 certification further guarantees surge protection performance, making it appropriate for demanding environments where reliability and uptime are critical for automation equipment.
The SPC100120N4P is UL 1449 listed for surge protection performance and is built into a NEMA 4X-rated enclosure for severe environments. It also carries a 10-year warranty, providing assurance of long-term protection and support for OEMs and end users implementing robust panel protection strategies.
Choosing this SPD reduces unplanned downtime by protecting drives, PLCs, and sensors from transient damage. The 100 kAIC rating supports high-impulse events, while the 10-year warranty lowers lifecycle costs. In practice, facilities see fewer equipment failures, longer service intervals for critical assets, and improved overall equipment effectiveness (OEE).
