FAQs
The SPM120220Y3V excels in industrial environments, including manufacturing floors, electrical rooms, and outdoor panels. With a NEMA 4X enclosure, it withstands wash-down, dust, and corrosion risks, while its internal circuit breaker supports quick isolation during faults. This makes it ideal for both retrofit projects and new builds seeking robust transient protection in challenging conditions.
A 120 kA per phase rating means the device can absorb high-energy surges without failing, protecting motors, drives, and control electronics. This reduces the likelihood of costly downtime and equipment damage during severe events, supporting longer asset life and fewer speed losses in production lines.
Yes. The model is designed for 127/220 V Wye (4W+G) systems and integrates readily into Eaton SPD MAX installations. Its compact, single-module footprint and NEMA 4X enclosure simplify mounting in both indoor panels and outdoor-rated setups, providing reliable protection with straightforward wiring.
The device is UL 1449 and UL 1283 listed, CSA certified, and RoHS compliant. These certifications streamline compliance during audits and support procurement by aligning with standard reliability expectations. A 15-year warranty (20 years with registration) further mitigates risk and total cost of ownership in regulated industries.
ROI is driven by reduced downtime, fewer surge-related failures, and extended equipment life. The SPM120220Y3V’s high surge rating, robust enclosure, and long warranty translate into lower maintenance costs and faster payback, especially in high-energy environments such as automation panels, data centers, and outdoor electrical rooms.
