FAQs
SPD080600Y3N is designed for external side mounting on distribution equipment and supports 347/600V wye systems. Install with the unit aligned to the distribution panel, observe the 9.5 inch depth, 5.4 inch width, and 3.45 inch height, and provide adequate clearance for heat dissipation. Follow Eaton IM01005031E installation instructions and connect to L-N, L-G, N-G, and L-L as specified, using the standard feature package and surge counter.
SPD080600Y3N delivers an 80 kAIC interrupt rating, enabling strong protection against high-energy transients typical in manufacturing environments. It clamps surges and diverts energy away from critical loads, reducing nuisance trips and wear on drives and controllers. Properly sizing and coordinating with upstream protection enhances uptime and equipment longevity.
Yes. The device uses a NEMA 4X enclosure designed for rugged indoor and outdoor use, providing protection against dust and moisture. Its external side mounting supports installation adjacent to distribution equipment, while the 347/600V wye rating covers typical industrial feeders. Always follow installation guidelines for weatherproof connections and proper clearance.
SPD080600Y3N carries UL 1449 safety certification, ensuring adherence to surge protection standards for electrical equipment. This certification supports safe operation and regulatory compliance for mission-critical systems. The NEMA 4X enclosure further reinforces environmental protection, aiding compliance in harsh settings.
Using SPD080600Y3N can lower maintenance and downtime costs by reducing surge-related damage to transformers, panels, and drives. The unit’s 15-year warranty adds long-term reliability, while the built-in surge counter enables proactive maintenance planning. In facilities with frequent transients, the protection pays back through fewer unplanned outages and extended equipment life.
