High surge capability with 160 kA per phase and a 240 Delta (3W+G) rating delivers a broad protection margin for three-phase systems. This translates to fewer nuisance trips, minimized equipment damage, and lower maintenance costs for critical loads. Ideal for industrial panels, motor drives, and process control systems in manufacturing and utilities. Rugged NEMA 4X enclosure with an internal terminal block simplifies wiring and reduces field assembly time. The weatherproof design supports outdoor panels, wash-down areas, and harsh industrial environments, improving install reliability. Surge counter is standard, enabling easy tracking of protection events and trending in maintenance planning. This traceability helps you justify retrofit programs and optimize spare-part inventories. RoHS compliant with UL/CSA tested protection provides regulatory peace of mind and reduces compliance risk across international sites. Warranty spans 15 years from delivery, with a 20-year option when registered, supporting total cost of ownership goals and long-term asset protection. The module’s compact footprint and internal terminal block streamline retrofits and new installations in 3W+G systems, delivering faster project turnover and fewer field-wiring errors.
