Special features
Basic
The SPM250220Y1V packs 250 kA per phase protection into a compact, single-module surge protective device that fits industrial control panels across manufacturing lines and distribution centers. This high fault current rating translates into robust transient handling for PLCs, drives, sensors, and other critical automation loads, reducing voltage-harm and unplanned downtime even in high-energy switching environments. With a 127/220 V Wye configuration, it aligns with common industrial power architectures, simplifying electrical design and minimizing the need for voltage converters in new equipment. The basic protection level provided by the Max series supports quick response to surges while maintaining compatibility with Eaton's protection philosophy across systems. The rugged NEMA 4X enclosure with an internal circuit breaker enables reliable outdoor and harsh-dust environments without additional weatherproof enclosures. This installation advantage translates to lower total cost of ownership and faster deployment in challenging facilities or outdoor substations. A 15-year warranty (20 years when registered) lowers long-term maintenance costs and provides predictable budgeting for plant-wide protection strategies across multiple facilities. RoHS compliance further supports sustainability goals and reduces compliance risk in regulated manufacturing environments. Certifications from UL 1449, UL 1283, CSA Std. C22.2 No. 8-M1986, and CSA Electrical Notice NO. 516 verify electrical safety and EMI/RFI performance for critical power panels and industrial networks. This conformance is crucial for panel builders and system integrators seeking dependable protection without compromising regulatory compliance or product traceability. Physical dimensions and weight—9.3 in depth, 17.5 in height, 14.91 in width, and 50 lb—facilitate mounting planning and space optimization. In practice, the SPM250220Y1V protects PLCs, motor drives, and I/O networks from spikes, delivering measurable uptime and asset longevity across industrial environments.

FAQs
Plan for a single-module footprint with 9.3 in depth, 17.5 in height, and 14.91 in width. Mount on a stable surface or suitable enclosure, wire per the 127/220 V Wye configuration, and ensure space for the internal circuit breaker. The NEMA 4X enclosure provides weather and dust resistance, simplifying outdoor or harsh-environment installations.
It is designed for 127/220 V Wye configurations, offering 250 kA per phase protection in a single-module form factor. This aligns with typical industrial automation loads, motor drives, and PLC supply schemes, reducing the need for adapters and ensuring robust transient suppression across common panel architectures.
UL 1449 and UL 1283 listings, CSA Std. C22.2 No. 8-M1986, CSA Electrical Notice NO. 516 Edition 1, and RoHS compliance. These certifications confirm electrical safety, EMI/RFI performance, and regulatory readiness for US and Canadian facilities, supporting panel builders and integrators in compliant deployments.
Yes. The device carries a 15-year warranty, or 20 years if registered, which reduces life-cycle costs. RoHS compliance and a rugged NEMA 4X enclosure minimize maintenance needs, while effective transient protection lowers downtime and extends asset life, delivering a favorable return on investment across automation assets.
Absolutely. The NEMA 4X enclosure with an internal circuit breaker is designed for outdoor and dusty environments without external weatherproof housing. Ensure proper installation clearances and follow wiring diagrams; this compatibility supports robust protection for industrial facilities and outdoor substations.
