SPC
The SPC150240N5P delivers 150 kAIC interrupt capability, which translates to significantly reduced risk of catastrophic damage during high-energy transient events. This feature directly improves system reliability and reduces unscheduled downtime in critical processes, such as automotive assembly lines or chemical processing plants. By handling 240V single-phase loads, the protector aligns with common industrial power architectures, simplifying retrofits and new installations alike. The NEMA 4X enclosure ensures dependable performance in wet, dusty, and outdoor environments, minimizing enclosure corrosion and maintenance concerns while enabling installation across factory floors and outdoor bays. Audible alarm and Form C relay provide immediate fault signaling and easy PLC/SCADA integration, enabling proactive maintenance and faster response to protection events. External side mounting supports efficient, service-friendly deployment, reducing retrofit labor and enabling scalable protection across panels. A 10-year warranty further lowers total cost of ownership, supporting long-term procurement strategies and budget predictability. This surge protection device is well-suited for industrial control panels, switchgear, and process equipment where uptime and compliance are paramount, with long-term reliability built into every unit.
