The SPD080240S4B delivers an 80 kA per phase surge rating, which directly reduces the risk of transient damage to sensitive loads and minimizes unplanned downtime in critical electrical systems. This translates to improved equipment life and lower maintenance costs, especially in manufacturing and data-center environments where power quality is essential. Its 120/240V split-phase rating ensures compatibility with common power distribution configurations, enabling straightforward installation into existing switchgear with remote display capabilities and Power Xpert SPD. The UL 1449 listing reinforces safety and compliance, helping customers meet internal standards and external audits while mitigating risk of outage-related penalties. With a footprint that fits typical enclosure footprints (3.48 in depth, 7.47 in width, 12.05 in height) and a 6.8 lb mass, installation is efficient and space-conscious. The unit’s compatibility with Power Xpert SPD and remote-display-enabled switchgear supports proactive monitoring and faster fault isolation, reducing diagnostic time and service costs. For engineers, this translates into predictable protection, easier spare-part planning, and a clear path to scalable, future-proof protection across industrial facilities.
