Protect Your Facility With Lightning Surge Protection Devices

Today’s industrial setups are heavily reliant on the continuous and efficient running of electrical and electronic systems. Overvoltage surges are a major cause of failure of this equipment.

Surge protection Devices

An electrical transient or surge is a short duration, high-energy impulse that is imparted on the normal, electrical power system whenever there is a sudden change in the electrical circuit. They can originate from a variety of source like lightning strikes, switching of utility grid or capacitor banks, electrical accidents, circuit breaker tripping, etc.

Modern microelectronic components are very sensitive to overvoltages and because many systems are networked, they rely on each other for the system to operate. If one part of the system gets damaged, due to lightning or surge, the whole system won’t operate. The consequential losses suffered during such events i.e. downtime and lost production can be very high.

Costly repairs, downtime and sustained revenue losses can be caused by the absence of lightning arrestors. Reason enough to protect your facility against damage by using LEC’s lightning surge protection devices.

We offer an extended family of lightning surge protection devices for various types of power distribution systems.

Facility Guard – our patented, UL listed lightning surge protection device eliminates common destructive failures at the service entrance and sub panels. With a peak capacity of up to 400,000 amps, it ensures complete protection for industries.

Transient Limiters – fail-safe, self-protected design; these nipple mounted devices come in a range of voltages and configurations for light commercial, industrial and home use. Another patented, UL listed device from Lightning Eliminators & Consultant Inc., with a protection capacity of up to 100,000 amps.

Electrical transients are not limited to the electrical distribution system. They can enter a facility through phone/fax line, cables and satellite systems, and even the local area networks. Therefore, in order to achieve maximum protection from surge damage, lightning surge protection devices should be installed on all systems susceptible to electrical transients.

Data lines and telecommunication lines require protection from electromagnetically induced transient surges. We offer:

Data Line Protector – this state-of-the-art hybrid surge protection are available on a range of configurations.

TE500 – a hybrid form of surge protector for data and telecommunication lines.

For safe operation of electrical equipment, these lightning surge protection devices are extremely useful in places where ultimate protection is required. Choose from our wide range of devices designed to protect your installation systems by limiting high operating voltage and diverting surge currents to ground.
