FAQs
The SPC100240N1P is designed for external side mounting in 240V single-phase panels. It fits standard DIN rail or enclosure layouts and requires proper clearance for cooling. Ensure a robust grounding path and verify panel rating (NEMA 4X) to maintain protection integrity in rugged environments.
A 100 kAIC interrupt rating means the device can safely absorb high-energy surges without internal damage or fault propagation. This protects sensitive drivers, PLCs, and sensors, reducing maintenance disruptions and extending the life of critical automation assets in demanding manufacturing settings.
Yes. The NEMA 4X enclosure provides strong resistance to moisture, dust, and corrosion, making it appropriate for wash-down zones, outdoor panels, and humid plant floors. This makes it a reliable choice for food processing, beverage, and other harsh environments where cleaning and exposure occur.
The SPC100240N1P carries UL 1449 certification, confirming compliance with recognized surge protection standards. It also features a rugged enclosure (NEMA 4X) for harsh environments and a 10-year warranty, supporting long-term reliability and regulatory confidence for OEMs and integrators.
By preventing surge-related damage to drives, controllers, and sensors, downtime is reduced and maintenance costs decline. The 10-year warranty further lowers long-term ownership costs, while fast installation and robust environmental protection minimize field labor and replacement cycles in high-volume manufacturing.
