SPC
The SPC100240S5P delivers a 100 kAIC interrupt rating, providing high-energy surge protection that minimizes the risk of equipment damage and unplanned outages. This translates to lower maintenance costs and longer service life for motors, drives, and controls in manufacturing lines and critical panels. Its 120/240 V split-phase compatibility covers common North American power architectures, reducing the need for multiple protection devices and simplifying panel design. The NEMA 4X enclosure protects against water, dust, and corrosion, making it suitable for outdoors, washdown areas, and harsh environments. An integrated alarm and Form C relay enables remote monitoring, fault signaling, and seamless integration with SCADA or building management systems. External side mounting supports retrofit installs with minimal panel modification, while the robust build remains compact enough for crowded electrical rooms. The 10-year warranty adds total-cost-of-ownership value, aligning protection with lifecycle planning and downtime reduction. Designed for the Eaton SPC series, this device complements existing protection schemes and helps facilities meet reliability targets without overhauling upstream hardware.
