Special features
Standard with surge counter
Feature → Business Impact → Application: The SPM300400Y3V is rated for up to 300 kA per phase, delivering high-capacity surge protection that minimizes the risk of downstream equipment failure and reduced downtime in mission-critical applications such as machine controls and PLC networks. This translates to lower maintenance costs and greater production availability in 24/7 operations. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The 230/400 V Wye configuration (4W+G) supports standard industrial power distribution, enabling straightforward integration into existing panels and switchgear while maintaining consistent protection across voltage levels. This is ideal for mixed loads in metal fabrication, packaging lines, and process automation. Feature → Business Impact → Application: NEMA 4X enclosure with an internal circuit breaker provides rugged, weather-resistant protection with built-in disconnection for safety, simplifying installation in outdoor or damp locations and reducing the need for additional enclosure upgrades. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Standard with a surge counter supports proactive maintenance by tracking surge events, enabling predictive service planning and compliance reporting for facilities subject to electrical code audits. Feature → Business Impact → Application: RoHS compliance and UL/CSA certifications minimize regulatory risk and support procurement requirements, while the 15-year warranty (20 years with registration) enhances total cost of ownership for OEMs and end users alike.

FAQs
The SPM300400Y3V uses a 230/400 V Wye (4W+G) configuration suitable for standard distribution panels. Its NEMA 4X enclosure with internal circuit breaker enables outdoor or harsh-environment mounting, while the 9.3 in depth, 17.5 in height, and 14.91 in width footprint should be planned into the electrical room. Ensure proper clearances for service and the surge counter access for maintenance.
Yes. The SPM300400Y3V is designed as a single-module Max series device and can integrate with other Eaton SPD MAX components to extend protection across a panel or line. When adding to an existing MAX setup, maintain proper spacing for heat dissipation and ensure conduit routing follows Eaton installation guidelines for optimum surge performance.
The device is UL 1449 listed and CSA certified, with RoHS compliance. It also references UL 1283 and CSA Electrical Notice No. 516 Edition 1 in its certification scope. Certification coverage supports regulatory compliance, procurement requirements, and safe integration into industrial electrical installations.
The SPD MAX series unit comes with a 15-year warranty from the date of delivery, extending to 20 years when registered on Eaton’s site. A built-in surge counter helps track events, supporting maintenance scheduling and warranty validation, while the rugged NEMA 4X enclosure promotes long-term reliability in challenging environments.
By limiting transient voltages to industrial controls, drives, and sensors, the SPM300400Y3V reduces the risk of nuisance outages and equipment damage, leading to lower repair costs and minimized downtime. The device’s long warranty, RoHS compliance, and surge counter enable predictable maintenance budgeting and improved asset lifecycle management for high-demand manufacturing facilities.
