Eaton’s Innovative Technology PX series is a UL 1449 5th Edition-listed surge protective device that provides reliable, cost-effective surge protection. This Type 1 SPD is capable of being installed on either the line or load side of the service entrance disconnect and can be used as a replacement for devices formerly known as secondary surge arresters or lightning arresters, which could not be manufactured after UL 1449 5th Edition went into effect on September 29, 2009. The unit is available in many common voltages and configurations. Multiple mounting options coupled with a compact footprint enables installation of the PX in a wide range of applications, including panelboards, loadcenters, pump panels, control cabinets, other electrical assemblies and applications, transfer switches and generators.
