Special features
Basic
Feature — 160 kA per phase surge protection delivers robust defense against transient overvoltages, reducing the risk of sudden equipment failures. This translates to improved uptime, lower maintenance costs, and extended life for motors, drives, and control electronics. Application-wise, this level of protection is well suited for data centers, packaging lines, and automation cells in harsh industrial environments. Feature — Single-module design simplifies installation and minimizes panel space while reducing wiring complexity. The internal terminal breaker eliminates extra components and helps meet fast-turnaround project schedules. In practice, technicians experience quicker commissioning and fewer field modifications in switchgear assemblies. Feature — 347/600 V Wye (4W+G) rating aligns with common industrial power distribution, supporting broad compatibility with three-phase four-wire systems. This enables straightforward integration into existing controls and machine panels without custom transformers or adapters. Benefit: fewer customization costs and faster deployment in retrofit projects. Feature — NEMA 4 enclosure protects against dust and water ingress for reliable operation in demanding environments. The internal protection feature reduces exposure to external components, easing maintenance in dusty or wet facilities. Application includes outdoor panels, manufacturing floors, and wash-down areas where cleanliness and protection matter. Feature — RoHS compliant and UL/CSA certified design ensures compliance with global safety and environmental standards. The 15-year warranty (20 years with registration) provides long-term risk mitigation, lowering lifecycle ownership costs. This combination supports procurement requirements and reduces total cost of ownership for industrial electrical protection programs. Feature — precise dimensions and weight (9.3 in D, 17.5 in H, 14.91 in W, 50 lb) aid in planning, mounting, and service access within existing control cabinets. This predictable footprint helps avoid enclosure recharts and reduces installation surprises in panel builds. In addition, these measurements enable straightforward BOM reconciliation and serviceability planning.

FAQs
The SPM160600Y1T is a single-module SPD rated for 347/600 V Wye (4W+G) with a NEMA 4 enclosure and internal terminal breaker. For installation, mount in the protected panel, connect phase and ground conductors to the internal breaker, and follow Eaton's datasheet to ensure correct phase sequencing and clearance.
The unit carries RoHS compliance, UL 1449 and UL 1283 listings, and CSA standards including CSA C22.2 No. 8-M1986 and CSA Electrical Notice NO. 516. These certifications verify safety, environmental compliance, and performance, simplifying procurement and regulatory approvals for industrial electrical protection.
Yes. The SPM160600Y1T uses a NEMA 4 enclosure with an internal terminal breaker, designed to resist dust, water, and corrosive conditions typical of manufacturing floors and outdoor installations. This makes it a reliable choice for control panels, switchgear, and equipment rooms in demanding facilities.
The device provides 160 kA per phase transient protection, suitable for protecting three-phase four-wire systems common in industrial settings. This rating helps mitigate high-energy surges from lightning or switching transients, reducing the risk of artifactual faults and downtime.
The SPD carries a 15-year warranty from delivery, with a 20-year option when registered on Eaton's site. This extended coverage lowers maintenance and replacement costs, delivering a favorable total cost of ownership for mission-critical machinery and long-life automation projects.
