High surge capacity delivers real-world protection; with 160 kA per phase, downstream equipment experiences fewer faults during transient events, reducing unplanned outages and maintenance costs. This translates to improved uptime for critical loads like CNC machines and data-center infrastructure, while ensuring compliance with recognized safety standards. The 120/240 V split-phase compatibility covers common industrial and commercial feeders, enabling rapid deployment without custom transformers or rewiring. The NEMA 4 enclosure with internal circuit breaker protects against dust and moisture intrusion in challenging environments, reducing installation complexity and external accessory needs. RoHS compliance and UL/CSA certifications provide regulatory confidence, helping facilities meet procurement and safety requirements while lowering total cost of ownership. The compact, single-module design supports straightforward retrofits and scalable protection across multiple panels within an Eaton Max ecosystem.
