The SPD120I is designed to protect single-phase power systems against surges & spikes caused by lightning strikes & other electrical
sources. The unit is intended for point-of-entry or main board protection in medium to high exposed locations. SPD120I are easily
configured for L-N or L-E protection for installations adjacent or remote from the M.E.N. link, which means it can provide protection
for commercial buildings to rural sites.
The SPD3NI is designed to protect 3-phase power systems against damage from surges & spikes caused by lightning & other
electrical sources. The unit is intended for point-of-entry or sub-board protection in low to medium exposed locations adjacent to the

Key Features:
The SPD50NGI is designed for use as an equipotential coupler between separately-grounded systems to provide protection against
surge transients. Under normal conditions the coupler does not conduct, preventing earth loops & inter-circuit coupling. Under surge
conditions, effectively interconnecting the circuits for the duration of the surge.
The SPD50NGI is an ideal companion for the Quickmov™ surge diverter for surge protection in distribution boards remote from an
M.E.N point. the SPD50NGI equipotential coupler (gas arrestor) is connected between the neutral & earth bar for N-E surge

Key Features
The SSFI is designed to provide secondary protection against power surges caused by external sources such as lightning strikes &
substation switching, as well as providing a measure of protection from surge events generated on the secondary side of the filter.
The unit has been designed in accordance with AS3100, AS1768, IEC61643-1, IEC61000-6-1, 2, 3, 4 & other standards & codes as
applicable.
The SSFI is a 3-stage protection unit utilising primary & secondary MOV protection in conjunction with a Low-Q LC filter. The unit
provides filtering of the line harmonics, noise & RF transmitters with a cut-off frequency of <10kHz & a minimum attenuation of 40dB
above 1Mhz. The operation status of the SSFI is indicated by lamps on the front panel. The "OK" light indicates that power is applied to
the SSFI. The "FAULT" light indicates that the surge protection circuitry is damaged & the unit should be replaced. An ideal device for
Category A locations.

The SF8RM is designed to protect equipment against power surges & electrical noise whilst providing a convenient
combination of power outlets to suit most applications. A unique mounting system allows mounting in many different
modes to suit crowded racks. Even if no rack space exists, the units may be mounted externally on the front or rear of
the rack. For horizontal mounting, the units require a single 1RU rack space for installation. The unit may also be flush
mounted to either side of a rack or cabinet.
