FAQs
The SPC120415Y3P uses external side mounting, enabling installation alongside panels or along a protected distribution line. This arrangement simplifies retrofit projects and minimizes spacing requirements in cramped electrical rooms. Ensure proper clearance for heat dissipation and access for the audible alarm, and follow panel manufacturer guidelines to maintain UL 1449 protection integrity.
The SPC120415Y3P provides a 120 kAIC interrupt rating and supports 240/400V Wye configurations. This combination makes it suitable for protecting three-phase industrial systems, data centers, and control panels from high-energy transients while maintaining compatibility with common European and North American electrical distributions.
Yes. The device is UL 1449 listed, housed in a NEMA 4X enclosure, and features an audible alarm, making it appropriate for data centers, manufacturing lines, and critical control panels. Its robust surge capability and rugged construction help minimize downtime and protect sensitive servers, drives, PLCs, and instrumentation in demanding environments.
Key certifications and ratings include UL 1449 listing for surge protection and a NEMA 4X enclosure rating for environmental protection. The 120 kAIC interrupt rating provides high-energy surge handling, while the 10-year warranty offers long-term reliability. Together, these features support regulatory compliance, safer installations, and predictable performance in industrial facilities.
The built-in audible alarm provides immediate, on-site notification of surge events, enabling rapid fault isolation and reducing mean time to repair. Maintenance teams can verify protection without connecting test gear or powering down, while monitoring operators gain a clear indicator of surge activity, which improves maintenance planning and asset protection in continuous operation environments.
