English versions of all safety labels (danger, warning, caution) are provided.
The device is designed to operate in an ambient temperature range of
-40 to +65 °C (-40 to +149 °F) with a relative humidity of 0 to 95% non-
condensing. Refer to the product catalog for further details o n enclosures.
All SPD’s operate normally without reduction in performance when
subjected to shock and vibrations described in IEC 60721-3-3, Class 3M4.
The device background noise is negligible and does not restr ict the
location of the installation.
This device is designed to be surface mounted. Refer to the device submittal
drawings or the product catalog for typical mounting dimensions and weight.
Install the APC Modular Panel SPD in a restricted access area.
The service clearance should meet a ll applicable code requirements.
To obtain the maximum system performance, locate the device as close
as possible to the circuit breaker to minimize the interconnecting wiring
length. For every foot in length of wire, approximately 175 volts per foot
(6 kV/ 3 kA, 8/20 microsecond) is added to the suppressed voltage.
The suppressed voltage rating is located on the device namep late and
is measured 6 inches from the device terminals, accordin g to UL
