MAP Series

MAP: Meterbase Applied Surge Protection Device. Meter-Treater’s MAP Series represents a new era in Meter Based Surge Suppression. The MAP Series eliminates the need for additional clearance between the utility socket and meter. Models are available for either 200 Amp or 400 Amp Continuous Service.

UL 1449 3rd Edition SPD for Type 1 or Type 2 Locations

The Model 400-1SL Meter-Based Surge Suppressor is a derivative of the original 1987 design, with twin red LED's to monitor unit status.
Class 320 Meterbase Protector The Model CL-320 Meter-Based Surge Suppressor is designed for Class 320 Amp Continuous. This unit is ideal for both Residential and Light Commercial Applications.
The 675-3PA three phase secondary surge arrestor is designed for 240 Volts phase to ground and has a surge current rating of 57kA per phase (171kA total).
The LDC commercial meter-based surge suppressor features parallel redundant suppression paths, twin 40MM MOV's per mode and 4 LED's which monitor unit protection states.

Hardwired Surge Protection (RCHW):  The RCHW hardwired surge protective devices are specifically designed for applications in residential, commercial and light industrial environments.  These devices are installed in applications where a meter-based surge suppressor is not practical. Enclosures are NEMA 4X, and exceed NEMA 3R requirements.

OWHX Version

MST: The patent pending MST Series is a modular, parallel installed, SPD (surge protection device) designed for commercial, industrial and residential applications. Models are available for all standard electrical services and provide 50kA of surge energy handling per phase. This rating is 5 times the energy handling of the IEEE's highest Category C location rating of 10kA/20kV using an 8x20ms waveform.

Secondary Protection
Today's personal and business lifestyles demonstrate how integral electronic equipment has become to our standard of living.  Everyday we use computers, telephones, facsimile machines, LAN networks, or home theater equipment. This equipment contains sensitive microchips or circuits that are easily damaged by surges.  Many of these surges are created within a home or facility.  By the use of other products, additional avenues of entry exist through phone, cable, security and external lighting lines.  Because a meter-based suppressor can not furnish protection to safeguard sensitive electronics from internally generated surges, additional levels of protection, such as high quality secondary protectors, should be placed on all equipment and systems deemed valuable.
