FAQs
Installers should know SPD080480D2K supports external side mounting in standard control panels. It uses a NEMA 1 enclosure and is rated for 480V delta with 3W+G grounding. With an 80 kAIC interrupt rating and available 15-year warranty, it enables quick, safe retrofits while maintaining compliance with UL 1449.
Key specifications include 480V delta (3W+G), 640 V operating voltage (L-G and L-L), 80 kAIC interrupt rating, NEMA 1 enclosure, external side mounting, and a 9.5 in by 5.4 in footprint. The unit ships with a standard feature package and UL 1449 certification, supporting reliable surge suppression in demanding environments.
Yes, SPD080480D2K is designed for external side mounting, enabling installation adjacent to existing equipment without extensive rewiring. Its NEMA 1 enclosure suits indoor spaces, and its compact 9.5 in length helps fit tighter panels. Always consult the mounting manual and verify clearances for safe integration.
It carries UL 1449 certification for surge protective devices, indicating conformance to safety and performance standards. This helps ensure regulatory compliance, protects against transient overvoltages, and supports risk management in critical electrical installations across manufacturing facilities. UL 1449 status is essential for procurement and compatibility with OEM equipment.
Mitigating transient surges with an 80 kAIC rating reduces unplanned downtime, extends the life of motors and drives, and lowers maintenance costs. The 15-year warranty adds lifecycle value, while UL 1449 certification streamlines procurement and compliance. For asset-heavy plants, the total cost of ownership improves over the system’s lifetime.
