Integrated Diagnostic LED

Equipped with a blue status LED, the MNSPD-115 visually indicates when voltage is present between L1 and Ground. This feature not only enhances usability but also allows users to quickly assess the operational status of the surge protector.

Robust Current Rating

This device features a surge current rating of 57 kA per phase, allowing it to withstand substantial surges without compromising performance. This robust rating is critical for ensuring reliable protection for electrical systems, minimizing downtime and potential repair costs.

Compact and Durable Design

The enclosure of the MNSPD-115 is crafted from polycarbonate, rated to UL94V-0, ensuring not only durability but also environmental resilience. Its compact footprint allows for easy installation, fitting seamlessly into various electrical setups without requiring excessive space.

How It Works

The MNSPD-115 functions by redirecting excess voltage away from connected devices when a surge occurs. It utilizes various internal components to detect, absorb, and dissipate harmful energy, protecting sensitive electronics from damage. This ensures that your electrical systems operate safely and efficiently.

Surge Protection Mechanism

The primary component of the MNSPD-115 is its Metal Oxide Varistors (MOVs), which effectively clamp surge voltages to harmless levels. This mechanism kicks in almost instantaneously, ensuring that voltage spikes do not reach critical components.

Internal Fusing

The device integrates thermal fusing for additional protection, which disconnects the internal circuits in the event of excessive heat buildup. This added safety measure significantly enhances the reliability of the MNSPD-115 under varying operational conditions.

Response Time

With an impressive response time of less than 1 microsecond, the MNSPD-115 engages quickly during voltage surges, ensuring immediate protection for connected devices. This rapid action prevents potential damage from fast-rising transients, which is crucial for maintaining system integrity.
