Special features
Standard with surge counter
High-energy surge protection: The device delivers 300 kA per phase, enabling robust defense against high-energy transients that can damage drives and controllers. This reduces unplanned downtime and maintenance costs in 3-phase 480 V delta networks used in manufacturing lines and processing plants. Application: protect motor starters, variable frequency drives, and PLC I/O in harsh environments. Rugged enclosure and serviceability: NEMA 4X with internal circuit breaker enhances environmental protection and simplifies field servicing. Businesses gain safer installations, easy access for resets, and compliant installation in indoor or outdoor locations. Application: outdoor substations, wash-down areas, and dusty manufacturing floors. Surge counter and monitoring: Standard surge counter provides visibility into event frequency for maintenance scheduling and regulatory reporting. This improves asset management and supports preventative maintenance programs. Application: facilities needing traceable transient history for compliance audits. Compliance, warranty, and lifecycle cost: RoHS compliant, UL and CSA listed, 15-year warranty (20 years with online registration) minimize long-term ownership costs. This reduces replacement cycles and supports budgets for plant-wide protection.
