FAQs
SPD080400Y3C is designed for internal mounting with a 4W+G configuration and is compatible with switchboards, busways, and panelboards such as PRL1a, 2a, 3a, 3e, and 4. When installing, confirm clearance for the integrated mounting, verify 400Y/230V (4W+G) input, and wire per the labeled L-N, L-G, N-G, and L-L terminals. This minimizes commissioning time and ensures reliable protection from the outset.
Key specs include 80 kA per phase surge capability, 200 kAIC interrupt rating, 20 kA nominal discharge current, operating voltage 400Y/230V (4W+G) with 50/60 Hz frequency, and operating temperatures of -40 to 50 °C. It provides 320 V line-to-neutral/ground and 640 V line-to-line protection, supporting robust protection for industrial systems.
Yes. The device is designed for protection of switchboards, busways, and panelboards in industrial environments, including automation networks. Its EMI/RFI filtering, audible alarm, surge counter, and Form C relay support proactive maintenance and reliable operation of PLCs, drives, sensors, and control panels in manufacturing and processing facilities.
SPD080400Y3C holds UL 1449 UL Listed certification, indicating compliance with recognized safety and performance standards for surge protection devices. This certification, combined with its 15-year warranty, helps facilities meet regulatory expectations and maintain safer, more reliable electrical protection across critical assets.
The 15-year warranty, along with a built-in surge counter and audible alarm, reduces maintenance costs and unplanned downtime. By protecting high-value equipment, minimizing nuisance trips, and extending the life of downstream components, the SPD contributes to lower total cost of ownership and higher system availability over the long term.
