Current Surge Suppressor Two Wire

Two Wire 4 to 20 mA
Current Loop Surge Protector


Type: TSP-WG6-20MA-xxxV-02 (Unipolar)
Type: TSP-WG6-20MA-xxxV-04 (Bipolar)


Where: xxx = Compliance Voltage

Features:

Application: Transient surge protectors provide common and differential mode protection for toll booths, drawbridges, street light controllers and railroad crossing gates/signals. Electronic equipment is extremely susceptible to transient voltages and surge currents due to its relatively fragile semiconductor construction. A surge protector is a cost effective method of ensuring that equipment will have maximum life.

Function: The module has a PROTECTED SIGNAL and POWER side which is connected to the data acquisition system input and power supply. It also has a LINE SIGNAL and POWER side which is connected to the transmission wire. The EARTH connection of the modules must be terminated to earth by low impedance heavy gauge wire.

Description: The transient surge protector features a protection mechanism which provides over-voltage and surge current protection for 2 wire +/- 4-20mA current loops. The module provides two stages of protection for the power path and three stages of protection for the signal path. Internally, the module has 100% redundancy to safeguard the system and prevent nuisance failures. This series of modules is for systems using a power supply at the data acquisition system end of the twisted pair, to power the transducer.

Technical Specifications: All specifications typical at nominal input voltage and 25°C unless otherwise specified.
