FAQs
The SPC150240N3P uses external side mounting and is designed for single-phase 240V systems. Begin by verifying 150 kAIC surge capacity, connect line and load according to the Eaton installation guide, and ensure the NEMA 4X enclosure is sealed against the mounting location. The audible alarm should be wired to a control circuit or alert system for immediate fault notification.
Key specs include 240V operation, single-phase configuration, 150 kAIC interrupt rating, NEMA 4X enclosure, audible alarm, and UL 1449 listing. These ensure robust surge diversion, suitability for exposed environments, real-time fault indication, and compliance with electrical safety standards, translating to improved protection for sensitive loads and reduced risk of unexpected downtime.
Yes. The unit features a NEMA 4X enclosure designed for outdoor and damp environments, providing weather-resistant protection for critical loads such as outdoor controls, motor drives, and process equipment while maintaining surge protection performance.
The SPC150240N3P is UL 1449 listed, ensuring compliance with recognized safety standards for surge protective devices. The NEMA 4X enclosure further supports use in harsh settings. Together, these certifications reduce risk, support regulatory alignment, and simplify procurement for regulated facilities.
