Eaton SPM120400Y1R Surge Protection Device - RoHS
Part Number: SPM120400Y1R
Quick Summary
The Eaton SPD MAX series surge protection device protects industrial panels from transient overvoltages. Unprotected systems suffer nuisance tripping, equipment damage, and downtime, which disrupt production and drive maintenance costs. UL 1449 and UL 1283 certifications, along with CSA Std. C22.2 No. 8-M1986, ensure reliable protection and compliant installation across harsh environments. Built for 230/400 V Wye systems (4W+G) in a NEMA 4 enclosure, it integrates with standard panels and RoHS-compliant components to support durable, compliant installations. In practice, choosing the MAX series reduces outages and extends asset life, delivering measurable ROI for plant operations.
