In today’s world, where industries heavily depend on sensitive electronics, surge protection has become necessary for ensuring the longevity and reliability of equipment. CITEL’s DS72US-240T/NN is designed to protect these systems from the damaging effects of electrical surges, particularly in UL 508A control panels and other industrial applications.

With the rise of Switch Mode Power Supplies (SMPS) over traditional transformer-based systems, there’s an increased vulnerability to electrical transients. As these power supplies become more advanced, allowing remote programming and control via RS232 or Ethernet, their susceptibility to power surges grows. A surge event can cause not only equipment failure but a complete system shutdown, costing businesses significantly in downtime and repairs.

Advanced Surge Protection for Industrial Applications

CITEL’s DS72US-240T/NN addresses these challenges with a pretty incredible solution. This UL 1449 5th Edition Type 1 Surge Protective Device (SPD) is specifically designed for 480/240V 1-phase systems and offers a surge current rating of 75kA per module. Its Multi-MOV technology ensures effective suppression of surges, protecting important components such as the power supply, Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC), and motor control centers. 

This makes it an ideal solution for industries using UL 508A control panels, as it shields the primary AC input from electrical surges and enhances system reliability.

The DS72US-240T/NN also features a visual fault indicator, remote contacts for monitoring, and replaceable modules, making maintenance simple and efficient. Backed by a 10-year warranty, this SPD provides peace of mind that your equipment is well-protected, even in the harshest conditions.
