FAQs
The SPC120480D6P is explicitly designed for 480V Delta configurations, providing a 120 kAIC interrupt capacity and an external side mounting option for easy integration. Its NEMA 4X enclosure helps it withstand challenging environments, making it compatible with motor drives, pumps, and other high-energy loads common in industrial facilities.
Its UL 1449 certification confirms compliance with surge protection standards, while the NEMA 4X enclosure protects against dust, water, and washdown in demanding locations. Filtering and alarm features add visibility and EMI control, which translates to more stable control panels and lower maintenance burdens in factories and process plants.
Plan for proper panel clearance and accessible wiring space, then mount the unit on the exterior side where service access is easiest. Follow the manufacturer wiring diagram for correct phase connections to 480V Delta lines, and ensure grounding is solid. Use compatible conduit fittings and protect against mechanical stress to maintain long-term reliability.
With a 10-year warranty and UL-listed protection, the SPC120480D6P reduces replacement cycles and unplanned downtime. The integrated filtering and alarms provide proactive fault notification, enabling preventive maintenance and better asset management, which translates to lower total cost of ownership and a faster return on investment in capital-intensive facilities.
Key specifications include 120 kAIC interrupt rating, 480V Delta voltage, and a NEMA 4X enclosure, with UL 1449 certification. These align with common industrial electrical standards and ensure reliable protection across manufacturing, processing, and distribution panels, while supporting safe operation in harsh environments.
