Surgelogic(TM) LC Uses Series Inductors To Provide Surge Suppression and Broad-Band Noise Filtration
Compact, low-profile, lightweight unit is ideal for critical power applications
PALATINE, Ill. - Sept. 10, 2002 - The SURGELOGIC(TM) LC Surge Protection Device (SPD) is a hybrid solution unlike any other. It provides both surge suppression and broadband noise filtration in a compact, low profile and lightweight unit. It is ideal for protecting critical power in commercial, industrial and OEM applications.
Unlike the standard parallel SPD, the SURGELOGIC LC device includes series inductors to provide a combined level of protection. It provides surge protection as high as 40,000 amps, while its sine wave tracking and filter capabilities provide up to - 75dB of noise filtration on a variety of control systems. Its thermal fuse protects against extreme surge currents and prevents dangerous thermal runway conditions.
The SURGELOGIC LC SPD provides superior protection for a variety of applications including custom control panels, telecommunications, uninterruptible power supplies, industrial electronics, PLC automation cabinets, motion control, medical equipment controls, traffic control cabinets, HVAC systems and security systems. It also meets international IEC requirements, providing one solution for the entire product range.
The SURGELOGIC LC family of SPDs was conceived to save time and costs during design and assembly, and provide maximum application flexibility. The LC SPD helps prevent interruptions in production and data disruptions, increases reliability, reduces maintenance costs and extends equipment life. Dual stage suppression provides exceptionally tight clamping protection, eliminating hardware degradation.
The compact design and trouble-free DIN-rail installation of the SURGELOGIC LC SPD provide application flexibility and reduce customization needs, while the screw lugs provide easy connection to the power system. The status-monitoring device offers a clear visual indication of the appliance's standing. Additional automated status alerts are optional with the Form C dry contacts.
