277 V single-phase SPD with 160 kAIC rating provides high-energy surge protection, diverting transient energy away from critical equipment. This translates to lower failure rates for controllers and drives, reducing unplanned downtime in automation lines and data centers. NEMA 4X enclosure delivers rugged durability in damp, dusty, or outdoor environments, enabling reliable operation in factory floors and outdoor switchgear. Installing in such environments helps meet industrial reliability targets and reduces enclosure leak risks. UL 1449 listing and UL 1283 5th Edition filtering ensure compliance and EMI suppression within control cabinets, improving signal integrity for PLCs and HMI systems. The included filtering reduces electrical noise that can affect sensor accuracy and communications. External side mounting supports straightforward retrofits and minimizes cabinet modification, saving installation time and labor costs. The SPC series' compact 5.5 in depth, 6 in height, and 3.19 in width fit within many standard enclosures, while the 2.5 lb weight keeps the burden light on existing panels. Long warranty (10 years) and Eaton's engineering support address lifecycle costs and maintenance planning, offering a clear ROI when protecting critical loads in manufacturing, facilities, and process industries.
