Special features
Basic
Two-module MAX series design provides scalable surge protection. This modular arrangement enables selective maintenance and easier future upgrades, reducing total cost of ownership. It is ideal for motor control centers, switchgear, and panelboards in factories and facilities where protection must adapt to expanding loads. A 200 kA per phase rating delivers robust transient suppression, limiting voltage excursions that can injure drives, PLCs, and control circuits. In practice, this translates to longer equipment life, fewer unplanned outages, and lower replacement costs. The 277/480 V Wye (4W+G) configuration ensures compatibility with common industrial power systems while maintaining grounding integrity. The enclosure is NEMA 4 rated with an internal circuit breaker, enabling reliable operation in harsh environments and simplifying field wiring and maintenance isolation. RoHS compliance and certifications UL 1283, UL 1449, and CSA support regulatory adherence and safety. The unit’s compact footprint and 50 lb weight facilitate installation in existing enclosures or dedicated surge protectors without major rework. A 15-year warranty (20 years with registration) further reduces total cost of ownership and provides long-term protection for mission-critical facilities.
