Ultra-slim devices for protecting electronic equipment against surges on control loop cabling.

Full hybrid surge protection to BS6651 (category C)
Ultra-slim 7mm module, DIN-rail mounting and earthing
Protection for 4-20mA loops
Auto-reset

Looking for a way to protect electrical equipment on control-loop cabling? Install this surge protection device from Eaton's MTL range. It diverts voltage spikes through a multi-stage hybrid protection circuit, combining solid-state electronics and a GDT (gas-filled discharge tube). This provides low-line resistance and surge protection of up to 20kA (kiloamperes). The device has an operating temperature range of -40°C to +80°C, so it's suitable for use in harsh conditions. You can use it to safeguard equipment in your computerised networks.

• Bright yellow colour for easy identification
• Provides protection for 4 to 20mA (milliampere) loops for flexible use
• Ultra-slim (7mm wide) for use in narrow spaces
• DIN rail mounting capability for quick and convenient installation

No. This surge protection device features an optional loop disconnect, which means you don't have to remove it when carrying out maintenance or repairs on your systems.

Yes. This surge suppressor is suitable for use in potentially explosive atmospheres.

Voltage surges, often referred to as spikes or transients are typically caused by switching of fluorescent lights, fuses blowing or nearby lightning activity. The worst voltage surges are usually caused by lightning and can reach up to 6000V, with current surges of over 3000A. The maximum size of the voltage and current surges depends on the location within the building's wiring system. BS7671: 2011 Amendment 1 Sections 443 and 534 cover risk assessment and provides guidance on protection of electronic equipment for installation engineers to follow. The fullest information on lightning and surge protection comes from the BSEN 62305 series of standards.
