FAQs
Install the SPC120600Y5P by mounting externally on the panel side using the included hardware; external side mounting minimizes panel work and allows quick field replacement. Ensure clearance for its 7.5 in depth and 8.5 in height, and wire the device to intercept surges at the service entrance to protect downstream equipment.
The SPC120600Y5P provides a 120 kAIC interrupt rating and operates on 347/600V Wye systems. This level of protection reduces voltage excursions seen by motors, drives, and controllers, extending equipment life and contributing to lower maintenance costs by limiting transient damage during utility spikes.
This SPD is well suited for industrial control panels, motor control centers, and data/telecom racks in demanding environments. The NEMA 4X enclosure enables use in wash-down areas, while the audible alarm and relay support integration with building automation and maintenance systems for proactive protection.
SPC120600Y5P carries UL 1449 certification and a NEMA 4X enclosure rating, addressing essential regulatory and environmental requirements for industrial installations. Confirm compatibility with 347/600V three-phase systems, external side mounting, and alarm signaling to align with local electrical codes and plant safety procedures.
The SPC120600Y5P offers a 10-year warranty and contributes to lower downtime by quickly arresting surges. Reduced maintenance frequency and faster MTTR through audible alarm signaling improve overall uptime. When evaluating ROI, consider avoided surge-related outages, extended equipment life, and simplified regulatory documentation.
