FAQs
When retrofitting, external side mounting supported by the SPC100240N5P simplifies removal and replacement, reducing panel downtime. Ensure adequate clearance for wiring and future maintenance, verify compatible 240V single-phase feeds, and plan for proper wiring routing to maintain the enclosure integrity and signaling connections.
The 100 kAIC rating indicates the device can safely absorb and interrupt high-energy surge events without degrading performance. This translates to reduced risk of internal component damage, lower likelihood of nuisance trips, and improved system uptime in environments with frequent transient voltages.
Yes. The NEMA 4X enclosure provides weatherproof and corrosion-resistant protection, enabling installation in outdoor locations, damp areas, and washdown zones without compromising protection performance or signal integrity.
The integrated alarm and Form C relay furnish remote signaling for fault and status conditions. This enables straightforward SCADA/PLC integration, proactive maintenance alerts, and faster fault isolation to minimize downtime and support compliant operation.
The SPC100240N5P carries a 10-year warranty, delivering predictable maintenance costs and long-term vendor support. Coupled with a 100 kAIC rating and robust enclosure, facilities can realize reduced downtime, fewer component repairs, and improved protection across multiple shifts and equipment fleets.
