Our surge and transient protectors are safety approved for instance for ATEx. The series cover both AC and DC instrumentation, and is retrofit, so already installed instrumentation can now use the extra high protection rate of up to 20 kA.
Excellent Overvoltage Protection
Drexelbrook’s new surge protection devices provide excellent protection for AC or DC powered field-mounted transmitters. These loop and line powered protection products consist of high power, solid state electronics and a gas-filled discharge tube (GDT) capable of diverting 20kA impulses.
Easy Installation on New or Existing Installations
The TP series products are screwed into any unused conduit entry on the transmitter housing and flying leads are connected to the terminal block signal, power and earth terminals.
Hazardous Area Certifications
The TP series surge protectors are certified to numerous worldwide approval standards for hazardous area mounting. Reference data sheets or talk to a Drexelbrook representative for details
