FAQs
SPD080480D3M uses external side mounting designed for straightforward integration with existing de-energized equipment. Ensure adequate clearance, secure mounting points, and compliant wiring routes. Verify the 480V delta system compatibility and follow Eaton installation manuals to connect conductors to the surge protection device without disturbing downstream protections. The external side mounting minimizes space constraints and simplifies retrofits in control panels.
An 80 kAIC interrupt rating indicates the maximum surge current the device can safely divert without experiencing internal damage or unsafe conditions. This level is suitable for high-energy transients common in industrial environments, helping protect motors, drives, and control electronics from destructive spikes and reducing the likelihood of cascading failures.
Yes. The 480V delta (3W+G) configuration and 80 kAIC rating make it well-suited for motor drives, PLC cabinets, and other control panels in manufacturing facilities. Its NEMA 1 enclosure, internal disconnect, and surge counter support safe, compliant installation and ongoing monitoring in indoor environments.
The SPD080480D3M is UL 1449 listed, confirming compliance with surge protection safety standards. It features a NEMA 1 enclosure suitable for indoor dry locations and includes a 15-year warranty for long-term protection. These certifications support regulatory acceptance and reduce risk during commissioning and audits.
The built-in surge counter provides actionable data for maintenance scheduling, enabling proactive replacements before failures occur. Coupled with a 15-year warranty, this reduces unexpected downtime and long-term repair costs, delivering a favorable return on investment through improved equipment reliability and predictable budgeting for industrial protection.
