High surge capability delivers 160 kA per phase protection, which translates into immediate clamp of transient voltages before they reach sensitive equipment. This reduces insulation stress on drives, PLCs, and soft starters, lowering the risk of unexpected outages. 347/600 V Wye (4W+G) configuration ensures compatibility with typical industrial power systems, reducing misapplication risk and supporting reliable protection for motors, controls, and power distribution in moderate to high-voltage environments. A NEMA 4 enclosure with internal terminal breaker simplifies field mounting and wiring, delivering weather resistance and safer service interruptions in harsh factory settings. Standard surge counter provides event logging for maintenance planning and warranty validation, aiding proactive asset management and reducing long-term ownership costs. RoHS compliance and comprehensive UL/CSA certifications help meet regulatory requirements and customer sustainability goals, while the 15-year warranty (20 years with registration) provides strong ROI and asset protection.

FAQs

Install the SPM160600Y3T as a single-module surge protector within a suitable industrial panel or distribution cabinet. Ensure a 347/600 V Wye supply is present, mount the device in compliance with the NEMA 4 enclosure specifications, and connect the internal terminal breaker for safe wiring. The built-in surge counter can be monitored after commissioning to verify protection performance. Verify clearance and torque specs per Eaton guidelines to maintain UL/CSA compliance.
The unit is explicitly rated 347/600 V Wye with a 4W+G configuration, aligning with common industrial power distribution schemes. This rating ensures compatibility with typical control panels and motor drives, minimizing installation errors and enabling reliable overvoltage protection in high-voltage environments without nuisance tripping or under-protection risks.
Yes, the SPM160600Y3T is UL 1449 certified and UL 1283 listed. It also references CSA Electrical Notice No. 516 Edition 1, with RoHS compliance. These certifications provide regulatory assurance for electrical safety, interference suppression, and environmental responsibility, which is particularly important for regulated facilities and certified equipment vendors.
The SPD MAX SPM160600Y3T reduces costly downtime by protecting critical equipment from transient surges, which translates to lower maintenance costs and less unscheduled outages. It offers a 15-year warranty (20 years with registration) and a built-in surge counter for proactive monitoring, enabling planned replacements before failures occur and supporting long-term asset reliability.
The device features a NEMA 4 enclosure with an internal terminal breaker, simplifying wiring and mounting in challenging plant environments. Its large, standard dimensions (9.3 in depth, 17.5 in height, 14.91 in width) and 50 lb weight provide a robust, retrofit-friendly option for existing panels, while the RoHS and CSA/UL certifications help ensure ongoing compliance and sustainability goals.
