Feature: The SPD100230L4J delivers a 100 kA per phase surge rating, enabling robust protection for critical MCC feeders. This high-energy capability reduces the likelihood of transient-induced equipment damage, lowering repair costs and downtime. In motor control centers, surges often originate from heavy motor startups or external lightning strikes, making this rating essential for continuous production. Feature: The 230 V single-phase voltage rating aligns with common MCC and panelboard configurations. This compatibility streamlines wiring, minimizes the risk of misapplication, and supports straightforward retrofits in existing facilities. With the SPD integrated into Eaton's Power Xpert family, you gain a consistent protection strategy across the plant. Feature: UL 1449 certification provides a validated safety and performance baseline that inspectors recognize. This certification simplifies compliance documentation and acceptance by panel manufacturers, system integrators, and end users. The device is designed for reliable operation within standard electrical protection schemes, reducing certification risk on new projects. Feature: Size and mounting footprint are designed for typical MCC enclosures, enabling front-access installation and simple service. The compact width and manageable weight help with field handling and rack layout planning, while maintaining rugged enclosure integrity. This translates to faster installs and less downtime during routine maintenance. Feature: Accessories and ecosystem compatibility, including Power Xpert SPD integration, streamline procurement and reduce the number of separate protection devices to manage. This compatibility enables centralized monitoring, easier part replacement, and consistent performance across devices in the same family. Operators benefit from unified diagnostics and quicker fault isolation. Feature: Targeted use with motor control centers, the SPD100230L4J offers predictable protection for drives, contactors, and controllers. In practice, facilities report fewer surge-induced incidents and improved uptime, with a straightforward replacement path when service is required. The result is a safer electrical environment, compliance confidence, and lower total cost of ownership over the asset lifecycle.
