Eaton SPM120208Y3X Surge Protection Device - UL1449 NEMA4X
Part Number: SPM120208Y3X
Quick Summary
The Eaton SPM120208Y3X is a surge protection device designed to shield 120/208 V electrical panels in industrial facilities. In mission-critical environments, transient spikes from motors, welding, or grid faults can trigger unplanned downtime and costly repairs – this SPD mitigates that risk. This model carries UL 1449 listing and CSA certifications, and uses a durable NEMA 4X enclosure to withstand harsh factory conditions and moisture exposure. With RoHS compliance and a built-in surge counter, it supports regulatory requirements while simplifying maintenance; the 15-year warranty (20 years with registration on Eaton's SPD site) adds long-term value.
