Special features
Standard with surge counter
High-energy transient protection is provided by the Max series design delivering up to 200 kA per phase in a 480 Delta (3W+G) configuration, significantly reducing motor drive and PLC fault rates while extending equipment life in demanding environments. Business impact: lower downtime and maintenance costs; application: motor control centers and drive-fed panels in manufacturing plants. The rugged NEMA 4X enclosure with an internal terminal block supports outdoor or harsh indoor installations, enabling quick field wiring and safer, cleaner terminations. This translates to faster project commissioning and consistent performance across harsh environments. The standard surge counter offers real-time event tracking, aiding preventative maintenance and simplifying warranty validation. Compliance is reinforced by UL 1449, UL 1283, CSA listings, and RoHS, easing regulatory approvals for critical facilities. The 50 lb, compact footprint complements modular protection strategies and simplifies retrofits in existing switchgear. The 15-year warranty, extendable to 20 years with registration, lowers total cost of ownership over the system life. Compatibility with Eaton SPD MAX series ensures seamless integration with other protection devices and standardized installation practices across your plant.

FAQs
The SPM200480D3X is designed for three-phase 480V delta systems with a ground reference (3W+G) and comes in a NEMA 4X enclosure with an internal terminal block. For retrofit projects, ensure adequate space for the 9.3 in depth, 17.5 in height, and 14.91 in width footprint, and plan impedance-free routing to minimize wiring length and voltage drop. Weight is approximately 50 lb, so use appropriate mounting hardware and support during installation to avoid strain on connections.
A 200 kA per phase rating means the SPD can absorb substantial surge energy before degrading, protecting motor starters, drives, and control circuits from high-energy transients. This reduces nuisance trips and electrical stress on downstream components, improving reliability in environments with frequent switching or utility surge events.
Yes. The enclosure is rated NEMA 4X, offering weatherproof and corrosion-resistant protection suitable for outdoor or damp indoor environments. Coupled with RoHS compliance and multi-standard certifications, the unit supports reliable operation in challenging conditions while meeting regulatory requirements.
The SPD includes a standard surge counter, enabling maintenance teams to log surge events and trends over time, which aids proactive planning and warranty validation. The device carries a 15-year warranty, extendable to 20 years with registration, contributing to lower total cost of ownership for critical infrastructure.
The SPM200480D3X carries UL 1449 and UL 1283 listings, CSA Electrical Notice No. 516 and CSA Std. C22.2 No. 8-M1986, and RoHS compliance. These certifications support safety approvals, environmental compliance, and market access in regulated industries such as manufacturing, energy, and data centers.
