Special features
Standard with surge counter
300 kA per phase surge capability is the defining feature, delivering high-energy protection for sensitive equipment. This translates to fewer nuisance trips and lower repair costs by containing damaging transients upstream of critical loads. Use in motor starters, control panels, and distributed power that uses 120/208 V Wye supplies with four-wire grounding. 120/208 V Wye (4W+G) compatibility ensures the SPD integrates seamlessly with common plant distribution. The business impact is improved protection coverage across both phases and neutral, reducing risk for servers, drives, and automation controllers. Applications include data centers, packaging lines, and machine groups where mixed voltages are present. NEMA 4 enclosure with an internal circuit breaker provides rugged protection and straightforward installation. This reduces field wiring complexity and minimizes enclosure corrosion risk in washdown or dusty environments. The results are faster commissioning and lower maintenance costs in manufacturing floors and utility rooms. Standard with a surge counter gives operators visibility into event frequency and maintenance planning. Combined with a robust warranty and RoHS compliance, it supports regulatory readiness and lifecycle cost reductions. UL 1449, UL 1283, CSA and related notices confirm compliance with safety and performance standards, easing procurement and qualification processes. The Max series design aims for reliability and service life, with a 15-year warranty (20 years when registered) backed by Eaton's service network. These features enable better uptime, predictable budgeting, and longer equipment life. The unit's dimensions and weight—9.3 in deep, 17.5 in high, 14.91 in wide, and approximately 50 lb—facilitate retrofit planning and fit within standard enclosure footprints. RoHS compliance further simplifies regulatory acceptance and environmental stewardship across the facility.
