Eaton SPD120208Y2J SPD - UL 1449 Listed
Part Number: SPD120208Y2J
Quick Summary
SPD120208Y2J is a surge protection device designed for motor control centers in industrial facilities. Engineers often contend with transient overvoltages that damage drives and trigger costly downtime; this unit provides rapid clamping and robust protection. UL 1449 Listed certification accompanies IBC 2006, CBC 2007, and UBC Zone 4 compatibility to support safety and code compliance. Beyond protection, EMI/RFI filtering up to 50 dB, an audible alarm with silence button, and a Form C relay simplify fault signaling and maintenance. Together, these features help maximize uptime, reduce unplanned outages, and simplify integration within 4W+G systems.

High surge current rating delivers rapid clamping during voltage spikes, protecting motors and drives from transient overvoltages while reducing stress on power electronics and protective devices. This directly lowers maintenance costs and minimizes unplanned outages in motor control centers that handle demanding loads and variable-speed drives. With a 120/208 V wye configuration and 4W+G grounding, SPD120208Y2J installs flexibly in existing MCCs without extensive rewiring. The compact footprint—9.5 in length, 5.4 in width, and 3.45 in height—and internal integrated mounting streamline retrofits and cabinet layouts, saving enclosure space and improving serviceability. EMI/RFI filtering up to 50 dB from 10 kHz to 100 MHz reduces electrical noise that can interfere with drives, PLCs, and control networks, translating to more stable communication and fewer spurious trips in automation environments. Audible alarm with silence button and Form C relay provide visible and remote fault signaling, while a surge counter with a rest button supports preventive maintenance and regulatory audits. Operational performance is rated for -40 to 50 °C ambient temperatures and is backed by a 15-year warranty, delivering long-term reliability in demanding manufacturing settings. UL 1449 Listed certification reinforces safety and compliance with protection standards for electrical protection devices, and the unit is designed for use in motor control centers to protect critical equipment across industrial processes and packaging lines.
