FAQs
SPM160600Y4T uses a NEMA 4 enclosure with an internal terminal block, simplifying wiring and maintenance. Plan for a 9.5 inch depth, 15 inch width, and 17.05 inch height footprint and ensure adequate service access. Wire with appropriate conductors, observe 4W+G configuration, and follow local codes for grounding and bonding to achieve reliable protection.
The SPM160600Y4T provides 160 kA per phase surge current, enabling robust protection against high-energy transients typical in industrial environments. This rating helps limit voltage spikes that could propagate to downstream equipment. When combined with the 347/600 V Wye configuration, it supports a wide range of feeders and motor drives, reducing the risk of component failure.
Yes. The SPM160600Y4T is part of Eaton's SPD MAX family and is designed to integrate with Power Xpert SPD monitoring and protection systems. This compatibility enables centralized status monitoring, simplified fault diagnostics, and coordinated protection across panels and feeders. Its internal terminal block and NEMA 4 enclosure also support straightforward field installation within Eaton's protection architecture.
This device is UL 1449 listed, confirming surge protection performance and safety. It also features a NEMA 4 enclosure rating, ensuring suitability for indoor/outdoor environments with exposure to dust and water. Together, these certifications meet common industrial compliance requirements for data centers, manufacturing lines, and utility rooms, reducing regulatory risk and boosting reliability across installations.
By preventing downstream damage from transients, the SPM160600Y4T reduces unplanned downtime and extends the life of downstream transformers, drives, and controllers. The rugged 52 lb unit with NEMA 4 housing resists harsh environments, while the internal terminal block speeds wiring and future upgrades. In practice, this translates to lower maintenance costs and a faster return on investment for critical protection schemes.
