Special features
Basic
Feature: Max series protection delivers up to 200 kA per phase, single module design. Impact: Reduces the risk of equipment damage from voltage transients, improving system reliability in power-critical applications. Application: Ideal for panelboards and machine control cabinets in manufacturing and process environments. This translates to improved uptime and lower replacement costs. Feature: NEMA 4X enclosure with internal terminal block. Impact: Enables reliable operation in harsh, damp, or outdoor spaces with straightforward wiring. Application: Suitable for outdoor electrical rooms and washdown areas where protection and ease of maintenance matter. This supports faster installs and simplifies service. Feature: RoHS-compliant and UL/CSA certified. Impact: Aligns with compliance requirements and procurement standards, reducing project risk. Application: Used in facilities requiring UL 1449/UL 1283 and CSA compliance for electrical protection devices. Feature: Compact, rugged dimensions (9.3 in depth, 14.91 in width, 17.5 in height) and 50 lb weight. Impact: Easier mounting in crowded panels and supports long service life with stable performance. Application: Fits in space-constrained control panels across industrial environments. Feature: Basic protection level for cost-conscious deployments. Impact: Delivers essential surge protection while keeping total cost of ownership reasonable. Application: Suitable for smaller panels or non-critical lines where protection is still essential. Industry context: The SPD MAX series is designed to streamline installation and compliance workflows for engineers and procurement teams working on power distribution, drives protection, and plant resilience.
