Eaton SPC100480D8P Surge Protection Device - UL 1449
Part Number: SPC100480D8P
Quick Summary
The Eaton SPC100480D8P surge protection device guards 480V delta systems against transient surges in industrial environments. Many control panels suffer unplanned downtime due to lightning and switching transients; this SPD helps mitigate that risk. UL 1449 listed, NEMA 4X enclosure, and a 10-year warranty provide robust regulatory and field durability. While filtering, an alarm and Form C relay simplify integration with asset monitoring, supporting maintenance programs and faster fault diagnosis. In applications with motor drives, PLCs and MCCs, it delivers reliable suppression and clear signaling, improving uptime and operational efficiency. This makes the SPC100480D8P a practical choice for systems needing robust protection and predictable maintenance.

FAQs
For proper installation in a 480V delta system, mount the unit on an external side location, use the NEMA 4X enclosure to protect against dust and moisture, and ensure adequate clearance as per cable routing. Verify UL 1449 listing and confirm the catalog number SPC100480D8P matches your panel design and conductor sizes. The compact footprint (5.5 in depth, 6 in height, 3.19 in width) supports retrofit and space-limited cabinets.
A 100 kAIC interrupt rating specifies the device’s ability to safely interrupt extremely high-energy transients, reducing the likelihood of downstream equipment damage. This translates to longer equipment life for drives, PLCs, and MCCs, lower repair costs, and improved uptime in high-energy environments common to manufacturing and processing facilities.
Yes. The SPC100480D8P features a NEMA 4X enclosure designed for protection against dust, water, and washdown processes. This makes it appropriate for outdoor installations, damp plant areas, and environments with frequent cleaning, ensuring reliable performance where harsh conditions prevail.
The SPC100480D8P is UL 1449 listed, offering essential safety certification for surge protection devices. It also carries a NEMA 4X enclosure rating for enclosure integrity in challenging environments and comes with a 10-year warranty, supporting procurement requirements and long-term reliability in regulated facilities.
Deploying the SPC100480D8P reduces unplanned downtime by protecting critical electronics like motor drives and PLCs from transient surges, extending component life and lowering repair costs. The integrated alarm and Form C relay enable proactive monitoring, which simplifies maintenance scheduling and accelerates fault diagnosis, delivering measurable lifecycle cost savings.
