Special features
Standard with surge counter
High-energy surge capability of 300 kA per phase provides a strong defense against transient spikes, reducing downstream equipment damage. This translates to lower maintenance costs and less downtime in PLCs, drives, and sensors. It’s particularly effective in motor control centers and automation panels in manufacturing environments. The 240 V delta (3W+G) rating ensures proper clamping and grounding for three-wire systems, preserving protection integrity across all phases. Benefit: consistent performance in critical process lines and distributed automation. Application: panel boards and control cabinets where 3W+G grounding is standard. The NEMA 4X enclosure with internal termination block provides rugged protection against dust, water, and wash-down environments, enabling installation in harsh plants and outdoor enclosures. Benefit: faster wiring and reliable field connections. Application: industrial facilities with demanding environmental conditions. Standard with surge counter gives real-time visibility into surge events, supporting preventive maintenance and trend analysis. Benefit: improved asset management and regulatory reporting. Application: compliance-driven plants needing traceable protection performance. The 15-year warranty, extendable to 20 years with online registration, plus RoHS compliance and UL/CSA certifications, reduces lifecycle risk and total cost of ownership. Benefit: durable, certifiable protection with predictable budgeting. Application: any industrial installation seeking reliable, long-term surge protection.

FAQs
Installers should verify 240V delta compatibility, power down the panel, and mount the unit in the enclosure. Connect conductors to the internal terminal block per Eaton wiring diagrams, bond the ground properly, and secure the cover to preserve the NEMA 4X rating. After wiring, verify surge counter operation and log the completion in maintenance records.
Its 300 kA per phase surge capability, 240 Delta (3W+G) ratings, and rugged NEMA 4X enclosure provide reliable protection for PLCs, drives, and sensors in harsh plant environments. The internal terminal block supports clean wiring and fast panel integration, while the surge counter offers visibility for performance monitoring and regulatory reporting.
The unit is UL 1449 and UL 1283 certified, with CSA Electrical Notice No. 516 Edition 1 and CSA Std. C22.2 No. 8-M1986, plus RoHS compliance. These certifications confirm safe, compliant transient suppression performance, traceability for electrical installations, and alignment with environmental directives important for industrial compliance programs.
The SPD MAX SPM300240D1X includes a 15-year warranty from delivery, extending to 20 years when registered on Eaton's site. Registering helps ensure extended protection coverage and access to Eaton support resources, aiding maintenance planning and lifecycle budgeting for facility managers.
Expect reduced unplanned downtime, fewer motor and drive failures, and improved maintenance planning due to the onboard surge counter. The long warranty and RoHS compliance also lower lifecycle risk and total cost of ownership, making it a cost-effective choice for protecting essential automation assets in demanding industrial environments.
