  • Surge Protectors an Employee Arrived at the Greensport Yard in Houston This Morning to Find the Field Office Full of Smoke
    Surge Protectors An employee arrived at the Greensport Yard in Houston this morning to find the field office full of smoke. Investigation led him to a melted down surge protector. An office by office search revealed another surge protector, of the same brand and model as above, that was starting to melt down IT WAS READY TO BLOW! The manufacturer, Newpoint, was contacted to see if similar incidents have occurred with this product. Newpoint stated that the surge protector had absorbed all of the energy it was capable of absorbing and melted down as a result. The surge protectors involved were not on a recall list. IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT SURGE PROTECTORS Most modern businesses and homes are supplied with 220 volt power systems. Heavy draw appliances such as air conditioners, dryers, and electric stoves operate on 220-volts and are not protected by surge protectors. Other appliances operate on 110-volts. These include computers, microwaves, stereo equipment and TV sets. These items are often used with surge protectors. The normal voltage flow will range from 110-117 volts. Surge Protectors are designed to trap the voltage that exceeds those limits. Excessive voltage occurs due to power spikes. When these spikes occur for a sufficient duration, this activates the trapping device, a Metal Oxide Varistor (MOV), located in the surge protector. The MOV is the heart of surge uppressors. The role of the MOV is to divert surge current. However, MOVs wear out with use. As more surges are diverted, the MOVs life span shortens, and failure becomes imminent. There is no forewarning or visual indications given - just failure.

  • ISOLATOR/SURGE PROTECTOR 118Ka BACKGROUND
    LITERATURE ISOLATOR/SURGE PROTECTOR 118kA BACKGROUND This addendum to “The Isolator/Surge Protector” describes the operation of the ISP in greater detail. It is assumed that the reader has already read the ISP Introduction for a general discussion of the features and characteristics. To reiterate some of the ISP introduction material, the ISP blocks the flow of DC current and readily conducts AC current as long as the absolute value of the voltage across its terminals is less than a preselected voltage threshold level (12.5 or 20 volts) and the steady-state AC current is also within its rating. If either of these conditions are exceeded, the ISP momentarily transitions from its “blocking DC/conducting AC” mode to a virtual short circuit to both AC and DC. This transition is accomplished within 1 to 4 microseconds by the logic-controlled circuit turning ON thyristor T1 or T2 (depending on polarity). This protects the DC blocking/AC by-pass capacitor from failure due to excessive current. It also provides over-voltage protection between the two points to which the ISP is connected. Reference Figure 1 for a simplified diagram of the ISP showing all key circuit elements. Figure 1: Isolator/Surge Protector Circuit Figure 2: Simplified Isolator/Surge Protector DURING DC CONDITIONS Whenever the DC voltage exceeds the voltage transition level selected, cathodic isolation is then interrupted until the transient The ISP appears as an open circuit to any DC voltage up to condition which caused the ISP to transition to its shorted mode the 12.5 or 20 volt peak transition level selected.

  • TECH TIP – What Is Varistor?
    TECH TIP – What is Varistor? A varistor is a voltage dependent resistor (VDR). The resistance of a varistor is variable and depends on the voltage applied. The word is composed of parts of the words “variable resistor”. Their resistance decreases when the voltage increases. In case of excessive voltage increases, their resistance drops dramatically. This behavior makes them suitable to protect circuits during voltage surges. Causes of a surge can include lightning strikes and electrostatic discharges. The most common type of VDR is the metal oxide varistor or MOV. A varistor typically comes in a disc package: Characteristics A voltage dependent resistor has a nonlinear varying resistance, dependent on the voltage applied. The impedance is high under nominal load conditions, but will sharply decrease to a low value when a voltage threshold, the breakdown voltage, is exceeded. They are often used to protect circuits against excessive transient voltages. When the circuit is exposed to a high voltage transient, the varistor starts to conduct and clamps the transient voltage to a safe level. The energy of the incoming surge is partially conducted and partially absorbed, protecting the circuit. The most important selection parameter is the clamping voltage. It is recommended to use as high clamping-voltage as the protected circuit allows, to limit the amount of exposure to surges. For example, to protect 120VAC circuits, you would use an MOV rated at 150V as long as the circuit would allow voltages up to 150V. Varistors are useful for short duration protection in case of high transient voltage surges in the order of 1-1000 microseconds.

  • 3 Keys to Choosing a Surge Protector
    3 KEYS TO CHOOSING A SURGE PROTECTOR There are many different kinds of surge protectors. Surge protectors installed on power lines don’t absorb or otherwise diminish damaging power surges. Their primary function is to divert these destructive forces away from your sensitive circuitry. There are four basic kinds of surge protectors: metal oxide varistors (MOVs), avalanche diodes, filters, and gas tubes. Metal oxide varistors (MOVs) are a common choice. The word varistor is a combination of two words: variable resistor. As these words imply, an MOV is a highly resistive device that triggers during an AC power surge and diverts the excess voltage, preventing it from reaching your expensive computer equipment. MOVs are designed to accommodate surge levels up to a specified breakdown voltage. When this limit is exceeded, the MOV varies from a highly resistive state to a state of low resistance. The excess energy is “clipped” from the power line and sent to ground. Surges occurring at the peak of a sine wave are clipped by the MOV, but high-voltage spikes may still occur (though they’ll eventually be clipped), and the MOV response times can range up to 500 picoseconds. This is the primary weakness of an MOV, but it’s usually overcome by the inclusion of some other suppression technique within the surge protector. Avalanche diodes, also known as Zener diodes, are semiconductor devices similar to MOVs, but they feature much faster response times (usually less than one picosecond). Avalanche diodes are available in a wider range of sizes to provide accurate and repeatable voltage clamping.
