FAQs
The SPD100480D3O is designed for external side mounting, allowing installation outside the main equipment housing while still protecting 480V delta networks. This configuration simplifies retrofits and additions to switchgear and panelboards, reducing enclosure space requirements and easing retrofit projects without compromising surge protection performance.
This device is UL 1449 listed for transient surge protection, features a rugged NEMA 4X enclosure for demanding environments, and carries a 15-year warranty. The 100 kAIC interrupt rating provides strong protection for high-energy surges, making it suitable for industrial panels, motor drives, and distribution equipment.
Yes. The combination of a 100 kAIC rating, 480V delta capability, and a NEMA 4X enclosure makes it well suited for motor drives and other high-energy loads in damp or dusty facilities. External mounting further simplifies deployment in retrofit projects or new installations near existing distribution equipment.
Plan for sturdy external mounting on accessible surfaces near the electrical distribution equipment. Ensure proper wiring to the delta network, maintain clearances for heat dissipation, and verify that the surge counter is accessible for compliance data. Use the included mounting hardware and confirm switchgear compatibility to minimize downtime during commissioning.
Installing the SPD100480D3O reduces unplanned downtime by protecting critical loads from transients, extends equipment life, and lowers maintenance costs. The UL 1449 listing, 15-year warranty, and surge counter support compliance reporting and asset management, delivering a favorable return on investment in industrial plants and manufacturing environments.
