Special features
Standard with surge counter
Feature → Business Impact → Application: High surge capacity of 250 kA per phase provides robust defense against high-energy transients, reducing the likelihood of motor drive and PLC damage. This translates to lower repair costs, fewer downtime incidents, and improved uptime for manufacturing lines and data centers. Application-wise, it is well-suited for 240 Delta (3W+G) electrical systems in industrial environments. Feature → Business Impact → Application: NEMA 4X enclosure with an internal terminal block enables reliable outdoor and harsh indoor installations while simplifying wiring and enclosure integrity. This reduces field wiring errors and accelerates commissioning in outdoor substations and protected switchgear. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Standard with a surge counter allows proactive monitoring and quick fault diagnosis, enabling maintenance teams to verify protection health during routine checks and after surge events in plant floors. Feature → Business Impact → Application: RoHS compliant construction and established certifications (UL 1449, UL 1283, CSA) support regulatory compliance and safer disposal practices, streamlining procurement approvals for regulated facilities. Feature → Business Impact → Application: A 15-year warranty (20 years when registered) lowers lifecycle risk and total cost of ownership, delivering long-term protection for OEM installations and mission-critical infrastructure. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Clear dimensional and weight specs—9.3 in depth, 14.91 in width, 17.5 in height, 50 lb—facilitate space planning and integration with existing protection cabinets and panel boards in industrial environments.
