FAQs
Installers should plan for a 230/400 V Wye (4W+G) configuration and ensure the enclosure is mounted in a suitable indoor or outdoor location per NEMA 4 requirements. The unit includes an internal circuit breaker to simplify wiring and improve fault isolation, while keeping panel space efficient. Verify clearance for the 9.5 in depth and 17.05 in height to accommodate mounting brackets and cables. Use proper grounding conductors and follow Eaton installation guidelines for optimal performance.
A 100 kA per phase rating provides a high energy absorption capability, ensuring transient energy from lightning strikes or utility switching is diverted away from sensitive equipment. This reduces the likelihood of insulation damage, data corruption, and unexpected outages. For facilities with heavy motor loads or sensitive electronics, this margin translates to longer asset life and fewer unplanned maintenance events.
Yes. The device is rated for 230/400 V Wye with 4W+G, aligning with common three-phase systems. It is suitable for retrofit into existing panels or as part of new installations that use standard three-phase electrical infrastructure. Its internal breaker simplifies integration by reducing external protective devices and wiring complexity.
This model is UL 1449 listed for surge protection devices, indicating compliance with recognized safety standards. It features a NEMA 4 enclosure that provides reliable weather resistance for indoor and outdoor use. While CE and IP-specific ratings are not listed, UL 1449 certification and NEMA 4 enclosure offer robust protection for industrial environments.
By delivering high-energy surge suppression with a durable enclosure and internal breaker, the unit reduces unplanned downtime and extends the life of downstream equipment. Maintenance needs are minimized due to fewer fault events and simplified wiring. Over time, this translates to lower maintenance costs, better compliance reporting, and improved asset protection across critical facilities.
