Eaton SPM250400Y1X SPD MAX protection device - NEMA 4X
Part Number: SPM250400Y1X
Quick Summary
SPM250400Y1X is an Eaton surge protection device designed for 230/400 V Wye panel protection. Unprotected panels expose critical equipment to transient overvoltages that can cause outages and costly repairs. This model is RoHS compliant and carries CSA and UL certifications for electrical protection, including UL 1449 and UL 1283, with CSA Notice NO. 516—supporting reliable, regulatory-compliant installations. Designed for Eaton protection schemes, it delivers long-term, maintenance-free performance, backed by a comprehensive warranty; the NEMA 4X enclosure further enhances suitability for harsh industrial environments. For engineers and procurement teams, this translates to reduced downtime, simplified compliance, and predictable total cost of ownership in panel-based protection strategies.
