Eaton SPS-615-HG Hospital-Grade Surge Protector 1050 J
Overview :
The Eaton SPS-615-HG is a hospital-grade surge protector designed for IT and clinical environments where multiple devices require surge suppression and hospital-rated connections. Engineers and facilities managers deploy this unit to protect equipment from transient voltage spikes while ensuring compliance with healthcare power distribution standards.
This strip provides six hospital-grade NEMA 5-15R outlets from a single hospital-grade NEMA 5-15P-HG input plug on a 15-ft (4.57 m) cord. It offers 1050 joules of surge suppression, full normal mode protection (line-to-neutral), and <1 ns response times, helping absorb surge energy and protect connected loads. Built-in diagnostic LED indicates line power presence.
The SPS-615-HG is typically deployed in non-patient care medical areas such as offices, nurse stations, labs, imaging support areas, and administrative zones that must comply with healthcare-grade electrical safety yet do not require UPS backup. It is also applicable in edge and network closets where hospital-rated outlet configurations are specified.
From an integration standpoint, this unit is a passive surge suppressor × it does not provide power switching or UPS functionality. It fits alongside equipment racks, carts, or wall-mount applications using included mounting holes or slots and operates within standard 120 V AC North American power infrastructure.
A practical example includes using the SPS-615-HG on a medical imaging support cart to power PCs, network devices, and peripheral diagnostics while shielding them from transient surges caused by nearby HVAC switching or elevator motor starts. It keeps critical IT gear operational without requiring full UPS deployment.
This device is not suitable for patient care vicinities that require UL 1363A certification or for supplying conditioned/backup power to life-critical systems, as it offers surge protection only and no battery backup.
