Intermatic IG1200RC3 Surge Protective
The Intermatic IG1200RC3 is a high-performance 120/240V surge protective device designed for residential and light commercial applications. Engineered with advanced TPMOV (Thermally Protected Metal Oxide Varistor) technology, this unit effectively mitigates the risk of thermal runaway and hazardous failure modes common in standard MOV designs. As a versatile Type 1 or Type 2 SPD, it can be installed on the line side or load side of the service entrance, providing critical protection for sensitive HVACR controls, variable speed pumps, and electronic ballasts. The NEMA 3R rainproof enclosure ensures long-term reliability in both indoor and outdoor environments. With a nominal discharge current of 20 kA and a 50 kA surge current capacity per phase, this device delivers a robust voltage protection rating (VPR) of 700V (L-N) and 1200V (L-L). Field technicians can quickly verify the system status via the integrated green LED indicator, which remains illuminated while active protection is present.
Key Benefits- TPMOV Technology: Provides superior thermal protection to prevent overheating during extreme surge events.
- Dual-Rated Application: Certified as both Type 1 and Type 2 SPD, offering flexibility for installation before or after the main service disconnect.
- All-Weather Durability: The UV-resistant polycarbonate NEMA 3R enclosure stands up to harsh outdoor conditions.
- Comprehensive Suppression: Features three modes of protection (L1-N, L2-N, L1-L2) to safeguard all legs of a 120/240 VAC single-phase system.
- Simplified Monitoring: Immediate visual diagnostics through the status LED ensure contractors can easily identify when a replacement is required.
What is the difference between Type 1 and Type 2 SPD?
A Type 1 device is suitable for installation at the service entrance, typically between the transformer and the main breaker. A Type 2 is designed for the load side, often installed in the main distribution panel or subpanels to protect downstream equipment.
Can the IG1200RC3 be used for HVAC equipment?
Yes, it is highly recommended for protecting HVAC systems, especially modern units with sensitive circuit boards and variable-frequency drives that are susceptible to voltage transients.
How do I know if the surge protector is still working?
Check the green LED indicator on the face of the unit. If the LED is OFF, the internal components have likely absorbed a surge and the unit must be replaced to restore protection.
