FAQs
SPD080480D3K is designed for 480V delta (3W+G) systems and mounts externally to electrical distribution equipment. It uses a NEMA 1 enclosure for indoor surface mounting and includes a standard feature package with a surge counter. For retrofit projects, follow Eaton’s IM01005031E installation manual and ensure adequate clearance and proper panel coordination.
The external side mounting and NEMA 1 enclosure provide robust protection in typical industrial spaces. It is UL 1449 listed, delivering proven surge protection performance, while the 80 kAIC rating accommodates high-energy transients common in manufacturing and process environments, helping maintain equipment reliability and uptime.
An 80 kAIC interrupt rating means the SPD can safely shunt and interrupt high-energy surges before they reach sensitive equipment. This reduces the likelihood of downstream component damage, extends the life of drives and controllers, and lowers maintenance and replacement costs after fault events.
SPD080480D3K is UL 1449 certified, ensuring recognized safety performance for surge protection devices. It features a NEMA 1 enclosure for standard indoor installation and external side mounting to simplify retrofit, aligning with common industrial installation practices and safety requirements.
By reducing surge-induced damage and enabling monitoring with a built-in surge counter, facilities can lower downtime, spare parts usage, and service intervals. The 15-year warranty further improves total cost of ownership by delivering long-term reliability and predictable maintenance budgeting.
