Installation, Operation and Maintenance Manual
IO-70100 Rev 3 7-15
The Emerson Network Power 570/560 Series
Surge Protective Devices (SPDs) are high
quality, high energy surge current diversion
systems designed to protect sensitive
equipment from damaging transient voltage
surges. Proper installation is required for
maximum system performance.
The installer should perform the following
steps to assure a quality installation. The
entire installation manual should be read
before starting installation. These
instructions do not replace national or local
electrical codes. Check applicable electrical
codes to ensure compliance. Installation of the
SPD system should only be performed by
qualified personnel.
1. Insure that all power is removed before
beginning installation. A qualified licensed
electrician shall install all electrical
connections.
2. The standard SPD is provided in a NEMA 4 or
NEMA 4X rated enclosures suitable for use in
indoor or outdoor installations.
3. Determine where the SPD is to be
mounted, allowing for minimum length of
wire between itself and the input power
terminals of the service panel. Punch or cut
the proper hole size in the side of the SPD
closest to the knockout to be utilized in the
service panel. Drill mounting holes in wall at
location picked for SPD next to service panel
using mounting dimensions shown in the
table below. Mount surge suppressor to wall
using 3/8” mounting hardware.
4. Connect black wires (line or phase) marked
L1/A, L2/B or L3/C, the white wire (neutral)
marked N, and the green wire (ground)
marked G, of the SPD using the wire range
listed below. To yield the best performance of
the SPD within the electrical distribution
system, keep all conductors as short as
possible and avoid sharp bends.
5. Connection to the unit’s summary alarm
contacts shall be with #18 – 22 AWG. The
ratings of the Form ‘C’ contacts are 5 amps
at 250 VAC maximum with a power factor of
1.0. For additional information, see
“Monitoring” section.
6. Apply power. The surge protector is fully
operational when the GREEN LED’s on the
modules and the front door of enclosure are
illuminated. If the GREEN LED’s are
extinguished or a RED LED is illuminated,
check to ensure that power is applied to the
SPD. If an abnormal indication is present,
remove power to the SPD and contact
Emerson Network Power Surge Protection at
1-800-288-6169 or 1-607-721-8840.
7. Periodically monitor the status of the
LED’s. Reduced protection exists if the GREEN
LED’s are extinguished or the RED LED is
illuminated. Please contact Emerson Network
Power Surge Protection at :
1-800-288-6169 or
1-607-721-8840.
8. The protection modules in these SPD’s
may be replaceable, contact Emerson
Network Power Surge Protection for
replacement.
NOTICE - If the SPD model is configured to
include a neutral connection (“Y”, “H”,
“S”, “N”), and a Neutral connection is not
available, please contact factory.
