FAQs
Plan for a 120/240 V split-phase supply and allow adequate clearance for the 50 lb unit. Its NEMA 4X enclosure with internal circuit breaker supports harsh environments, and the 9.3 in x 17.5 in x 14.91 in footprint should fit standard industrial racks and panels. Mounting hardware and electrical connections should follow OEM guidelines.
A 300 kA per phase rating means the SPD can absorb large energy surges per phase without failing, preserving downstream components like drives and PLCs. This rating is particularly beneficial in high-energy events or locations with unreliable utility feeds, providing a robust defense for critical automation infrastructure.
Yes. The device is designed for 120/240 V split-phase systems used in automation panels and is UL 1449 and CSA listed, RoHS compliant, and built in a NEMA 4X enclosure with an internal circuit breaker to simplify panel integration and maintainability.
UL 1449 and CSA listings confirm safety and performance compliance for surge protection devices, while RoHS compliance ensures restricted hazardous substances are managed. This combination reduces regulatory risk, supports safe installation in certified control systems, and helps meet industry-standard electrical protection requirements.
The SPD MAX SPM300240S1V carries a 15-year warranty from date of delivery, with a 20-year option when registered on Eaton's SPD portal. This coverage reflects confidence in long-term reliability and simplifies budgeting for maintenance and replacements in mission-critical environments.
