UL 1449-listed protection with a rugged NEMA 4X enclosure provides dependable transient suppression in harsh industrial environments. This combination protects control panels, motor drives, and PLCs from damaging voltage spikes caused by motor starts, switching events, and grid disturbances. The 10-year warranty reinforces long-term performance, helping maintenance budgets with predictable replacement cycles. Designed for 240V single-phase systems, the SPC200240N7P fits standard panel footprints and minimizes retrofit risk. For manufacturers, that means fewer design changes and faster time-to-value when upgrading legacy protection. With a 200 kAIC interrupt rating and Form C relay, the device offers fast fault isolation and clear signaling for upstream protection devices. This reduces arc energy exposure and downstream component stress, lowering unplanned downtime and extending equipment life. In practical terms, it supports reliable operation of distribution boards, machine controls, and automation cabinets across manufacturing lines. The protection enables integration with remote monitoring schemes, enabling condition-based maintenance and better incident reporting. In essence, you gain visibility and resilience without sacrificing simplicity. Filtering capability addresses power quality concerns that plague modern facilities. The built-in filtering helps suppress high-frequency transients, improving drive and PLC performance and reducing EMI. External side mounting simplifies installation in existing layouts, cutting wiring complexity and commissioning time. The 240V rating and external mounting method allow retrofit in cramped spaces without enclosure rework, preserving panel density and serviceability. Additionally, the SPC series supports modular expansion, making future upgrades straightforward as plant throughput grows. Compatibility and lifecycle considerations also matter to procurement teams. The unit's compact footprint (5.5 in depth, 6 in height, 3.19 in width) and 2.5 lb weight fit standard industrial enclosures, brackets, and retrofit kits. With UL certification, NEMA 4X protection, and a 10-year warranty, it aligns with global safety programs and plant reliability initiatives. For budgeting and spare-part planning, the SPC200240N7P offers predictable maintenance costs and measurable reductions in equipment downtime, contributing to a lower total cost of ownership over the device lifecycle.

FAQs
The SPC200240N7P supports external side mounting, which simplifies installation by allowing the device to be mounted on the exterior side of existing enclosures or frames. This reduces wiring runs, simplifies retrofit work, and minimizes panel redesign. For facilities upgrading legacy protection, external mounting enables faster deployment with fewer changes to surrounding infrastructure, improving overall project timelines and minimizing downtime.
Key specifications include a 200 kAIC interrupt rating, 240V single-phase voltage rating, UL 1449 certification, and a NEMA 4X enclosure. It also features filtering capabilities and a Form C relay for signaling. These specs translate to robust transient suppression, compatibility with standard industrial panels, reliable operation in harsh environments, and straightforward integration with monitoring systems.
Yes. The device is designed for harsh environments thanks to its NEMA 4X enclosure, UL 1449 protection, and 240V single-phase operation. The rugged construction supports damp, dusty, or demanding factory floors typical of automotive assembly and food processing facilities. Its 200 kAIC rating ensures strong protection for critical controls and drives, helping maintain uptime in challenging settings.
The SPC200240N7P is UL 1449-listed and housed in a NEMA 4X enclosure. These certifications matter because they validate weather and ingress resistance (NEMA 4X) and safety/overvoltage protection performance (UL 1449). This alignment with industry standards supports regulatory compliance, safer operation, and easier supplier qualification in regulated facilities such as chemical plants and process industries.
Deployment promises reduced downtime through reliable transient protection, lower repair costs, and extended asset life due to fast fault isolation and signal integration via the Form C relay. The 10-year warranty helps stabilize long-term maintenance budgets. With fewer unplanned outages and improved power quality, facilities typically experience a favorable total cost of ownership over the device lifecycle.
