Eaton’s SPD Series (Sidemount Versions) Data Sheet
Feature — 100 kAIC interrupt rating. This surge capability absorbs large transient events without compromising performance, dramatically reducing the risk of upstream transformer or drive damage and unplanned plant downtime. Application: ideal for heavy industrial loads such as motors, pumps, and presses fed from 480V delta networks, where switching spikes and grid disturbances frequently occur, demanding robust protection. Feature — 480V delta (3W+G) voltage rating. This specification ensures transient clamps remain within the protective band, safeguarding breakers, drives, and control electronics from misfired surges. Business impact: extends component life and reduces spare parts by preventing nuisance spikes from triggering cascading faults. Application: process facilities, packaging lines, and OEM equipment relying on delta-connected feeders benefit from consistent surge protection and reliable control performance. Feature — NEMA 4X stainless steel enclosure with external side mounting. The rugged housing resists washdowns, corrosive cleaners, dust, and impact, while the side-mount option simplifies integration with existing panels and minimizes space intrusion. Application: ideal for food processing, water treatment, chemical processing, and other harsh environments where durable protection and easy access to the device matter. Feature — Operating voltage 640 L-G and 640 L-L. This precise specification guides proper protection thresholds and coordination with upstream devices, ensuring the SPD activates only when spikes exceed normal operating ranges. Business impact: improves system reliability, reduces nuisance tripping, and simplifies protective device coordination. Application: supports mixed three-phase systems and single-phase tie-ins across plant sections, simplifying engineering and maintenance. Feature — 15-year warranty and UL 1449 certification. The warranty reduces lifecycle costs, while UL 1449 ensures validated protection performance and safety compliance. Application: procurement teams gain confidence in long-term protection for mission-critical equipment and reduced maintenance spend across capital projects.

FAQs
The SPD100480D2P uses an external side mounting method compatible with 480V delta (3W+G) configurations. Plan the layout to minimize wiring length to the distribution panel, secure the enclosure to a sturdy surface, and follow standard wiring practices per Eaton installation manuals. Ensure the enclosure is NEMA 4X stainless steel for washdown environments and verify clearance for service access.
Key specs include a 100 kAIC interrupt rating, voltage rating of 480V delta (3W+G), and operating voltage of 640 V L-G and 640 V L-L. The unit measures 9.5 in length, 5.4 in width, 3.45 in height, and weighs 3.5 lb. It carries UL 1449 certification and ships with a standard feature package.
Yes. The SPD100480D2P uses a stainless steel NEMA 4X enclosure, designed for washdown and harsh environments. Its external sidemount configuration provides installation flexibility outside standard electrical gear, while maintaining accessibility for maintenance. This makes it well-suited for food and beverage, water treatment, and other high-cleanliness or corrosive environments.
The device is UL 1449 certified, a key safety and performance standard for surge protection devices. It also offers a long 15-year warranty, underscoring vendor confidence and lifecycle reliability. Combined with a rugged NEMA 4X enclosure and external side mounting, these features support durable protection in mission-critical industrial applications.
While pricing varies, the 15-year warranty and UL 1449 certification contribute to lower lifecycle costs by reducing replacement frequency and maintenance—saving downtime and spare parts. Its robust 100 kAIC protection and rugged enclosure translate to higher equipment uptime and predictable protection budgets across capital projects and ongoing plant operations.
