High surge rating drives equipment resilience and reduces downtime, delivering measurable business impact by protecting motors, drives, and control systems in high-energy environments. This 160 kA per phase capability in a single-module Max series SPD translates to fewer replacements and lower maintenance costs, especially in facilities with heavy switching loads or lightning exposure. For panel builders, the 9.3 in depth, 17.5 in height, and 14.91 in width fit common industrial enclosures, enabling straightforward retrofits and upgrades to existing protection schemes. The NEMA 4 enclosure with an internal circuit breaker simplifies wiring and maintenance, supporting quick service and enhanced safety during replacement or inspection. RoHS compliance and CSA/UL certifications ensure regulatory alignment and risk management across global operations, while the compact form factor supports installation in crowded electrical rooms and control cabinets. This SPD is ideal for 240 Delta (3W+G) systems, panel boards, motor drives, and industrial control panels where reliability and regulatory compliance are paramount. In practice, specifying the Eaton SPD MAX series helps engineering teams meet uptime targets without compromising safety or performance.
