SURGE PROTECTORS

Surge Suppression and Power Conditioning for Critical Load Protection

AEGIS Powerline Filters
Protect Against the Full Spectrum of Transient Disturbances

Designed to protect expensive electronics from hazards within a facility, this critical load protection is effective at reducing harmful surges and noise. The AEGIS protects against all ringing and impulse disturbances. Applying this powerline filter at your critical loads results in “clean” power entering electronics and a reduction in “soft” errors, operational malfunction and damage to components.

Prevent Downtime & Equipment Damage Due To Surges
• Hardwired surge filter protects critical loads
• Filters entire sine wave
• Effective against frequently occurring low energy transients that cause microprocessor failure over
time and occasional high energy transients that produce immediate damage.

Uses Include
• Programmable Controllers (PLCs)
• Scanning devices
• Alarm Systems
• Microprocessor-controlled OEM products
• Robotics
• CAD/CAM systems
• Control equipment
• Medical electronics and devices

Designed in accordance with
ANSI/IEEE C62.41 (1991)
recommended spectrum of
transient wave forms.

Features & Benefits

• Unique series hybrid design

– Tracking filter reacts instantly to frequency and
voltage changes regardless of phase,
magnitude or polarity.
– Always active, providing more protection than
conventional suppressors.
– Eliminating degrading power disturbances
extends microprocessor life.

• Status monitoring lights

– Expedites troubleshooting during downtime.

• 5-year downstream equipment warranty

– AEGIS-HW and AEGIS-PR

• High performance suppression capabilities

– Up to 45,000A of surge suppression & 75dB of
noise attenuation @ 100kHz for AEGIS-HW &
AEGIS-PR.
– AEGIS+ protects up to 160kA/phase

• Thermal cut-off protection (TCO)

– Thermal fuse improves indication, monitor &
control during fault conditions (AEGIS-HW &
AEGIS-PR only)

• Optional remote monitoring capabilities

– AEGIS-HW and AEGIS+

• DIN-Rail, J-Rail or flange mount connections

– DIN-Rail mounting reduces installation time

Reflected Wave Trap (RWT)
VFD Motor Protection Against Reflected Wave Spikes

Install this device at the motor terminals to eliminate system overvoltage transients. The patented RWT is ideal for drive-motor systems operating at carrier frequencies ranging from 2 kHz to 12 kHz on 208 to 480 volt systems.

Operators, engineers and systems integrators report increased motor control failures due to insulation failure caused by reflected wave transients. Also known as dV/dT, this phenomenon occurs with long cable lengths between the IGBT (and BJT) drives and motors. Today’s high speed drives, the power cable and AC motor impedances are not matched. This causes significantly higher voltage spikes at the motor terminals. Variable frequency drives improve the efficiency and operational control.

REFLECTED WAVE TRAP
Type of Enclosure	Application 200 to 480V
NEMA 1	RWTCHR1
* Class 1, Division 2 —T4 135�C Groups A, B, C, D

Features & Benefits

• Eliminates reflected wave transients
• Reduced motor failure
• More uptime
• Operates up to 12kHz; faster than 2 to 6 kHz used in other designs
• Universal solution that meets all of your needs
• Sizing to motor HP is not required
• Longer lead lengths between VFD & motor means more flexibility
• Max. surface temp. of 80�C eliminates the possibility of serious burns
• Matching motor cable impedance is not required
• No voltage drops resulting in reduced motor torque
• Maintenance-free
• Meets Class 1, Div. II requirements
