Special features
Standard with surge counter
Feature: 300 kA per phase surge rating delivers robust energy-absorbing capacity for demanding industrial loads. Business Impact: This protects transformers, drives, and panelboards from damaging transients, reducing unplanned downtime and costly repairs after voltage spikes. Application: Suited for 480 Delta (3W+G) systems across manufacturing lines and process industries where uptime and equipment reliability drive profitability and safety. Feature: Built-in surge counter provides real-time event logging without external accessories. Business Impact: Operators gain immediate visibility into surge activity, enabling predictive maintenance and just-in-time replacements rather than reactive stocking. Application: Useful for panel-mounted protection that must document surge history for audits, warranty, and reliability programs in food and beverage, chemical, or heavy manufacturing environments. Feature: NEMA 4 enclosure with an internal circuit breaker delivers weather resistance and enhanced fault management. Business Impact: Reduces maintenance cycles and protects protection circuitry from dust, moisture, and corrosion in outdoor or damp plant areas. Application: Particularly beneficial in outdoor switchgear rooms, wash-down areas, or exposed plant floors where protection must endure challenging conditions. Feature: RoHS compliant with UL 1283 and UL 1449, CSA certifications ensures compliance and safety in regulated environments. Business Impact: Streamlines qualification for code-compliant installations and reduces the risk of supplier non-conformance. Application: Suitable for industrial facilities pursuing rigorous electrical standards, energy management programs, and responsible procurement. Feature: 15-year warranty (20 years when registered) provides long-term protection and total cost of ownership advantages. Business Impact: Reduces replacement and maintenance costs while improving spare parts planning and vendor support. Application: Best suited for mission-critical lines, data centers, and process industries that rely on durable protection and predictable budgeting. Feature: Compatibility with standard Eaton SPD family and common panel interfaces enables plug-and-play integration with existing protection schemes. Business Impact: Reduces engineering time and risk during retrofit, enabling faster deployment. Application: Ideal for panel upgrades, drive systems, and distributed protection in plants migrating to advanced surge protection.

FAQs
Install the single-module SPD into a suitable 480V delta panel using standard mounting provisions; the unit's NEMA 4 enclosure provides weather resistance, and its internal circuit breaker simplifies wiring and fault isolation. Verify proper phase connections (three-phase plus ground) and ensure alignment with the panel's protection scheme for maximum uptime.
The SPM300480D1R is UL 1283 and UL 1449 listed, CSA certified, and RoHS compliant. These confirmations support compliance, safety, and environmentally responsible manufacturing, aiding audit readiness and regulatory acceptance in industrial facilities.
Yes. The SPM300480D1R is designed to integrate with Eaton's SPD family, enabling plug-and-play compatibility within existing protection schemes and simplifying upgrades or expansions without redesigning the protection layout.
Key specs include a 480 Delta (3W+G) voltage rating, 300 kA per phase surge current rating, a 9.3 in depth, 14.91 in width, 17.5 in height footprint, and a 50 lb weight. It features a standard surge counter and is enclosed in a NEMA 4 housing with an internal circuit breaker.
It reduces unplanned downtime, extends equipment life by limiting surge damage, and simplifies compliance reporting through built-in surge logging. The long warranty and RoHS/UL certifications further lower total cost of ownership and streamline procurement and maintenance planning.
