MDP-EC

Lightning Surge Protectors for
Electronics Equipment M-RESTER

LIGHTNING SURGE PROTECTOR FOR EC-CABLE USE

Functions & Features
• Designed specifically for the 32-point
Transmission System EC-CABLE
• Protects the transmitter model ECT and the receiver ECR from lightning surges entering through the twisted-pair cables connecting the both modules
• Applicable to transmission systems by current loops
• Absorbs surges only without affecting instrumentation signal
• No interruption of signal by unplugging the protector element

MODEL: MDP–EC[1]
