Overview

The Surge Pure M6-1480-3 is a primary-level surge protective device (SPD) designed for deployment at the service entrance or main distribution panels of electrical installations. As part of the Mach 6 SPD System, it functions as the critical first line of defense, creating a protection grid when combined with secondary-level units for comprehensive facility-wide defense.

In plain terms, the device functions to isolate and protect critical downstream equipment from extreme external utility hazards, including lightning-induced transients, as well as internal surges generated within the facility. This unit provides powerful surge diversion, evidenced by its substantial Total Surge Capacity of 2000 kA (at 8x20 µsec pulse) and Max SE* Surge Current of 80/640 kA per mode/per phase. Engineered with non-degrading SPD technology, the M6-1480-3 ensures continuous integrity of the AC power system.

For installation planning, the Surge Pure M6-1480-3 is housed in a rugged indoor/outdoor (NEMA 4X) enclosure, signifying dust, drip, hosedown, and corrosion-proof capability. The unit's overcurrent protection is designated as Type 1 & Type 2, no breaker required / for fast easy panel installations, use 60 amp breaker - CODE RULE 26-420 (2). Connection is made via 36-inch #6 AWG Stranded Copper leads in a 3+G configuration. Always follow local electrical code and use a qualified electrician where required.

Before choosing this model, verify that your system is a 3∅ Delta AC service with a nominal AC line voltage of 480 VRMS and 50/60 Hz frequency. Key performance metrics include a Maximum Continuous Operating Voltage (MCOV) of 550 and a VPR Rating of UL 1449, 5th Ed L-N/L-L @ 20kA, In: 1500. The device is c-ETL-us Listed and Certified to the latest UL 1449, 5th Edition / CSA C22.2 - no. 269, confirming its compliance and safety ratings. Protection status is confirmed via the Lifetime Green LED Self Test 'Protection Status Monitors' For Each Phase.
