Transient Voltage Surge Suppressor. 240 / 120v, single-phase.
Nema 4X (clear plastic hermetically sealed lid), fiberglass cabinet. A dedicated two-pole
disconnect or breaker, (100 amp, 250 volt {preferred}, or 60 amp, 250 volt) is
required for this suppressor (non-fused). Weight = 12 pounds. Absolutely
the best surge suppressor money can buy for house or business!!
"C" Surge Blox™
It has two very high end Surge Blox 200 Suppressor
Modules @ 3,000 Joules per phase. (200,000 Peak Amps, 220 Volt Clamp). The
design utilizes silicon avalanche diodes (SADs) or metal oxide varistors (MOVs)
in easy-to-repair and upgrade modular designs. They
have a red/green self checking LED circuit and companion alarm
panel with Form C contacts to activate an alarm in the event
of suppression failure. AC Data Systems, manufacturer of
the Surge Blox 200 states this assemblage offers redundant
protection to prevent damage from repetitive voltage spikes
generated by recurrent outages or by the turning on and off
of other mechanical and electrical equipment as well as from
oscillatory, decaying transients generated by lightning.
Alarm Circuit Assembly
Patented PC board traces are monitored by the alarm assembly to alert you of individual
MOV loss and to provide reliable high-surge current capacity and low let-through
voltage MOV protection. One by one, individually fused and alarmed MOVs are removed
from the suppression system when degraded and damaged. The specs on the alarm
circuit assembly are as follows:
• Voltage: 120 vac RMS
• Frequency: 50/60 Hz
• Operating Temperature: -20 to 80º
