Feature: High surge capability — 100 kA per phase provides robust protection for critical loads, reducing the risk of equipment damage during lightning events or switching surges. Business Impact: Lowered downtime and maintenance costs due to fewer transient-induced failures. Application: Ideal for switchboards and panelboards in industrial facilities where peak transient energy is a concern. Feature: Strong short-circuit and discharge performance — 200 kAIC interrupt rating and 20 kA nominal discharge current ensure rapid energy diversion and fault tolerance. Business Impact: Improves system reliability and protects downstream equipment from voltage spikes. Application: Useful in environments with dense electrical loads and frequent switching.Feature: Broad voltage and frequency suitability — 200 V to 277 V and 50/60 Hz support enables deployment across diverse commercial and light industrial applications. Business Impact: Simplifies procurement and reduces stocking complexity by covering multiple site standards. Application: Panelboards and switchgear serving 200–277 V distributions.Feature: EMI/RFI filtering and audible/visual signaling — up to 50 dB of noise attenuation plus an audible alarm with silence button and a Form C relay contact. Business Impact: Improves power quality perception and provides actionable fault/status signals for control systems. Application: Critical control panels requiring real-time indication and integration with building management.Feature: Internal integrated mounting and compact footprint — 9.5 in x 3.45 in x 5.4 in with a 3.5 lb weight simplifies installation and reduces cabinet space. Business Impact: Faster install, reduced labor costs, and easier retrofits. Application: Mounts directly in switchboards, panelboards, and busway assemblies with minimal enclosure modification.
