AC powered
home and office equipment is at risk from lightning and other transients
caused by the switching on and off of motors, domestic appliances, air
conditioning and other loads. This can lead to unexplained equipment damage
and loss of data stored on computers. The vast majority of this damage can
be avoided by using the correct type of surge protection. Our Pro-Series
Power Protectors have a multi-stage approach to protection and incorporate
some or all of the following:
1. Metal Oxide Varistors to absorb and divert surges away to earth.
2. Heavy-duty Gas Discharge Tubes to relieve the Varistors and protect
against dangerous powerful surges.
3. Thermal fuses to protect against overheating.
4. Fuses, to give protection should the GDT operate under particular
conditions.
5. RFI in-line filtering to remove noise from the power supply.
6. Indicator lamps to show the unit is operational
Various plug and socket arrangements are available including Schuko. |
