Lightning Surge Protectors for
Electronics Equipment M-RESTER

LIGHTNING SURGE PROTECTOR FOR
MULTI-CHANNEL USE

(high discharge current capacity)
Functions & Features
• Protection for semiconductor switches of discrete outputs against lightning surge damage
• Applicable to both negative and positive common signals
• Applicable to multi analog signals (non-isolation between channels)
• Space saving with multi-channel protectors
• LED monitor indicating degradation of voltage limiter
• LED monitor driven by discrete I/O signal without auxiliary power supply

MODEL: MDR2–8[1][2]
