Surge Protection Devices
Power disturbances can cause downtime or interruptions in production facilities where electrical and electronic equipment is installed. Higher productivity has been achieved through investment in computers, automated manufacturing systems, electronic controls, telecommunication systems and office equipment. This investment needs specific protection to avoid productivity loss.

 

Power disturbances or transient voltage surges are over voltages or over currents occurring within less than one cycle of 60 cycle current and are caused by external and internal events. Lightning, utility company grid switching, load switching by neighboring facilities and variable frequency drives are some causes of power disturbances. Transient voltages range from only a few volts to more than 20,000 volts with surge currents in excess of 10,000 amps.

Practically every industrial machine or system generates or is adversely affected by transients. All mission critical electric and electronic systems should be safeguarded to prevent disruption, damage and destruction resulting in costly downtime and productivity loss.

Cutler-Hammer makes the quality surge protection devices needed to keep production lines operating and Electric Maintenance Service keeps these products in stock. We also provide help in determining the size surge protection device needed. Call us for a consultation.
