Feature: High surge current rating and per-phase protection (100 kA per phase) dramatically reduces damage from transient events. Business impact: lower repair costs, less downtime, and longer equipment life, which translates to higher plant uptime and safer operations. Application: ideal for switchboards, busways, and panelboards across manufacturing facilities, data centers, and process industries where reliable power conditioning is essential. Feature: EMI/RFI filtering delivers up to 50 dB attenuation across 10 kHz to 100 MHz, minimizing wiring interference and protecting control loops. Business impact: fewer EMI-triggered faults and more stable PLC and drive performance. Application: recommended in installations with sensitive sensors or high-speed automation near panel enclosures and switchgear. Feature: Audible alarm with silence button, surge counter, and Form C relay contact provides immediate fault visibility and optional remote signaling. Business impact: faster maintenance response times, easier integration with building management systems, and traceable surge events for regulatory reporting. Application: valuable in central control rooms and distributed protection schemes for panelboards and switchgear. Feature: Internal integrated mounting and a compact footprint simplify retrofit and installation in crowded electrical rooms. Business impact: reduced on-site labor and faster commissioning, enabling tighter project schedules and lower total installed cost. Application: compatible with 400Y/230V four-wire plus ground systems in switchgear, busways, and panelboard assemblies. Feature: UL 1449 Listed certification and compliance with IBC 2006, CBC 2007, and UBC Zone 4 expectations provide regulatory assurance. Business impact: stronger bids, smoother inspections, and boosted confidence in system reliability. Application: suitable for new builds or upgrades in data centers, manufacturing facilities, and other environments with stringent safety requirements. Feature: 15-year warranty and robust safety margins support long-term protection planning. Business impact: lower lifecycle risk and predictable maintenance budgeting. Application: ideal for continuous protection strategies in industrial environments.
