MDM2AT

Lightning Surge Protectors for
Electronics Equipment M-RESTER

LIGHTNING SURGE PROTECTOR FOR
STANDARD SIGNAL LINE & PULSE USE

(life monitor, 24 V, 48 V or 65 V DC line voltage, photovoltaic system, instrument shelter)
Functions & Features
• Designed specifically for 4 – 20 mA DC and pulse signal lines
• Absorbs surges only without affecting instrumentation signal
• Life monitor function helps you to decide when you should replace the surge protector; reduces time and effort for maintenance and prevents downtime
• LED display and alarm output indicate the degradation and life span of the surge protection circuits
• Wide range of operating temperature from -20 to +70°C
(-4 to +158°F)

Alarm indicators
  PWR
: The green LED turns on while the power is supplied.
  ALM: Tricolor LED (green/amber/red)
· Remains off when the power supply is first turned on.
· Green: The unit has received one or more surges.
· Amber: Replacement is recommended.
· Red: The life span has ended.
Degradation judged: When the leakage current at the voltage limiter exceed approx. 7.5 μA.
Life time judged: When the number of discharges of the discharge element reaches the expected life span.
Alarm output: The N.C. contact is on when the life span of the discharge elements has ended, when the voltage limiter has degraded, and/or when the power supply is removed.

CAUTION

Before replacing the unit, make sure to turn off the power supply for safety.  Other factors such like an alarm system connected to the line should also be considered.
The life monitoring circuit remains alive by the internal backup circuit even when the external power supply is removed.  The LED is turned off in that case.
