MDW2A-4R

Lightning Surge Protectors for
Electronics Equipment M-RESTER

LIGHTNING SURGE PROTECTOR FOR
RS-485 / RS-422

(life monitor)
Functions & Features
•Designed specifically for RS-485 or RS-422 transmission line
•Life monitor function helps you to decide when you should replace the M-RESTER; reduces maintenance and prevents downtime
•LED indicator and alarm contact output indicate the degradation and life span of the surge protection circuits

GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS

Construction: Plug-in
Connection: M3 screw terminals (torque 0.8 N·m)
Screw terminal: Chromated steel
Housing material: Flame-resistant resin (black)
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. 0.25 mA.
Life time judged: When the number of discharges of the discharge element reaches the expected life span.
Alarm contact: The N.C. contact is on when the life span of the discharge elements has ended, when the voltage limiter has degraded or when the power supply is removed.
