Special features
Standard with surge counter
The 250 kA per phase surge capability provides robust protection against high-energy transients, directly reducing downtime and protecting critical assets like variable frequency drives and PLCs. Business impact: minimized unplanned outages and extended equipment life, especially in harsh industrial environments. Application: ideal for manufacturing lines and data centers that require reliable power protection and rapid surge isolation to maintain production targets. A 230/400 V Wye (4W+G) configuration ensures compatibility with common industrial power systems, simplifying retrofits and new installs alike. The NEMA 4X enclosure with an internal terminal block enables quick, safe wiring and durable installation in wet or dusty environments, while the built-in surge counter delivers actionable event data for maintenance planning. RoHS compliance and listed certifications (UL 1449/UL 1283/CSA) support regulatory adherence and supplier confidence. The standard warranty of 15 years, extendable to 20 years with registration, lowers total cost of ownership and enhances return on investment.

FAQs
What mounting and wiring considerations are needed to install the SPM250400Y3X in 230/400 V Wye networks? It uses a compact, rugged NEMA 4X enclosure with an internal terminal block, simplifying panel mounting and wiring. Ensure suitable clearance for the 9.3 in depth, 17.5 in height, and 14.91 in width footprint, and verify that the panel can support the 50 lb weight. The unit ships RoHS compliant and UL/CSA listed, supporting compliant installations in industrial environments.
A rating of 250 kA per phase indicates the device can safely absorb very high surge energies per phase without failing, protecting connected equipment like motor drives and PLCs from damaging transient voltages. This specification translates to improved uptime, reduced repair costs, and enhanced reliability for demanding industrial applications operating on 230/400 V systems.
Yes. The Max series SPD is designed for control panels and power distribution in manufacturing facilities. Its 230/400 V Wye configuration, internal terminal block, and NEMA 4X enclosure support rugged installation in dusty or wet environments, while the surge counter provides visibility into surge events for proactive maintenance.
The unit is UL 1449 and UL 1283 listed and CSA C22.2 No. 8-M1986 certified, with RoHS compliance. Additional certifications include CSA Electrical Notice No. 516 Edition 1. These approvals help ensure regulatory compliance and safer operation across industrial environments.
The SPD comes with a 15-year warranty from delivery, extending to 20 years when registered at Eaton’s site. The built-in surge counter aids maintenance planning by tracking events, enabling data-driven replacement strategies and lowering total cost of ownership through predictable asset protection.
