Announcing the new SPDi
Range of Surge Diverters
Professional, high performance surge
protection designed for Australian conditions
The SPDi series of surge diverters provides the ultimate solution for surge protection in single and multiphase systems at an affordable price. SPDi surge diverters can be installed as point-of-entry or sub-board
protection and are connected in parallel with the power circuit via separate protection HRC fuses. These
devices are ideal for Category C & B locations (ANSI/IEEE C62.41). The units are housed in a genuine
DIN43880 profile enclosure, enabling them to be easily included in new designs or retrofitted into existing
switchboards.
The SPDi utilises state-of-the-art MOVs featuring embedded thermal fusing to ensure safe isolation
during sustained and abnormal conditions. Integrated LED indicators show protection and individual MOV
status with the added convenience of a dry-contact alarm to allow remote monitoring.
Features and Benefits
Top 5 Features
Brass connection terminals with
symmetrical current layout
Benefits
Lower impedance and reduced voltage drop across terminations.
Equidistant terminals and PCB layout ensures perfectly balanced
protection with symmetrical current distribution.
Blue LED status indicators and
dry-contact alarm
Accurate and easy to follow operating status and protection level
indication with the convenience of remote status monitoring.
Thermally fused MOVs
Ensures safe and reliable isolation during sustained over-voltage
or abnormal conditions.
Versatile mounting clips
Innovative designed mounting clips allows for quick and easy
installation on a DIN rail or surface mounted on a panel.
Designed in Australia
Professionally designed and tested to handle the harsh
Australian conditions and real life supply voltage variations.
