FAQs
The SPM120240H3V is designed with a NEMA 4X enclosure and an internal circuit breaker, enabling straightforward integration into standard electrical panels. Ensure mounting within the footprint specified by its dimensions (9.3 in depth, 17.5 in height, 14.91 in width) and confirm 240 delta high-leg system compatibility. Follow UL/CSA guidelines for safe installation and verification of RoHS compliance in your facility.
A rating of 120 kA per phase indicates the device can absorb high-energy surges per line phase without failure, reducing the likelihood of downstream equipment damage. This rating translates to improved uptime for critical loads such as drives, controllers, and sensors in manufacturing lines, data centers, and service panels, especially during lightning or switching transients.
Yes. The SPM120240H3V is specified for 240 delta (4W+G) configurations, robustly protecting 3-phase systems with a high-leg neutral. Its single-module design and durable enclosure are well-suited for panel boards and process controls that require reliable protection without complicating wiring, while still providing diagnostic features like a surge counter.
The device carries UL 1449 and UL 1283 listings, along with CSA Std. C22.2 No. 8 and CSA Electrical Notice No. 516. These certifications confirm electrical safety, performance under surge conditions, and compliance with North American standards, easing procurement for regulated industries and helping with customer audits and quality programs.
The built-in surge counter enables proactive maintenance by signaling when surge events occur, reducing unexpected outages and extending the life of protected equipment. Coupled with a 15-year warranty (20 years with registration), users can forecast replacement cycles, optimize spare parts inventory, and lower total cost of ownership across capital-intensive facilities.
