Eaton SPS406HGULTRA Medical-Grade Surge Protector 1410J

Overview

The Eaton SPS406HGULTRA is a medical-grade surge protector designed for deployment in patient-care environments where electrical safety compliance is mandatory. It provides protected AC power distribution for medical electronics while meeting UL 60601-1 safety requirements applicable to healthcare equipment used in close proximity to patients. Healthcare IT teams, biomedical engineering departments, and facilities infrastructure teams commonly deploy this device to safely power diagnostic and monitoring equipment.

The unit delivers surge suppression rated at 1410 joules and supports a 120V AC electrical environment with a maximum input current of 15 amps. It integrates four hospital-grade NEMA 5-15R-HG outlets and a NEMA 5-15P-HG input plug to ensure reliable grounding and retention when connected to hospital electrical circuits. A resettable 15-amp circuit breaker protects connected devices from overload events while maintaining service continuity during transient faults.

This surge protector is typically deployed in patient-care vicinities such as therapy rooms, imaging areas, diagnostic labs, and clinical workspaces. It also appears in medical equipment carts, wall-mounted power distribution installations, and clinical workstation environments where regulated power access is required. Its compact strip format allows mounting along equipment rails, carts, or work surfaces without occupying rack space.

From an integration standpoint, the SPS406HGULTRA fits into standard North American 120V / 15A electrical ecosystems common in hospital facilities. The hospital-grade connectors ensure compatibility with medical-certified receptacles, while the metal enclosure supports safe deployment in clinical infrastructure environments where durability and grounding integrity are required.

A typical deployment scenario involves powering multiple medical devices on a clinical workstation or mobile cart. Biomedical teams often mount the surge strip directly to equipment frames using the integrated flanges. This approach ensures surge protection for connected monitors, patient telemetry systems, or diagnostic peripherals while maintaining compliance with healthcare electrical safety regulations.

This device should not be deployed as a substitute for rack-mount power distribution units in data center racks or high-density IT infrastructure. It is designed specifically for localized equipment protection rather than centralized power distribution for servers or network switching hardware.
