SPC
With a 100 kAIC interrupt rating, the SPC100480D6P absorbs and shunts extreme surges, protecting sensitive drives and contactors from catastrophic failure. This translates to substantial downtime reduction and lower maintenance costs on high‑demand lines such as stamping presses and conveyor systems. UL 1449 certification validates safety and performance under fault conditions, while the NEMA 4X enclosure seals the unit against dust, water, and harsh industrial environments. This makes installation viable in washdown areas or outdoor panels without additional cabinets. Filtering minimizes electrical noise and EMI, improving PLC input stability, and the integrated alarm output provides real-time status to supervisors or SCADA. In critical automation cells, this visibility supports proactive maintenance and faster mean time to repair. External side mounting simplifies retrofits, enabling quick commissioning without disassembly, while its compact footprint fits most panel layouts. A 10‑year warranty adds predictability to total cost of ownership and reinforces long‑term protection for motors and drives in automation cells.
