SPC
200 kAIC interrupt rating delivers robust surge handling, reducing downstream damage and extending equipment life by limiting peak voltages reaching sensitive drives and controllers. This translates into lower maintenance costs and fewer unplanned outages in automated lines. The 240/400V Wye configuration supports common three-phase power distributions found in panelboards and motor control centers, enabling straightforward integration with existing systems and scalable protection as plant loads evolve. A rugged NEMA 4X enclosure withstands moisture, dust, and washdown environments, enabling reliable installation in both indoor facilities and outdoor cabinets without compromise. Filtering reduces high-frequency noise, improving power quality for PLCs and drives while minimizing nuisance trips and EMI concerns. The built-in alarm and Form C relay offer actionable signaling for remote monitoring, enabling automated shutdown logic and proactive maintenance workflows. External side mounting simplifies retrofits and reduces installation time in existing installations. The 10-year warranty and UL 1449 listing provide assurance of long-term performance and compliance with industry standards, supporting cost-effective lifecycle management of industrial surge protection.
