BPT Series

Commercial & Industrial SPD with Diagnostics Panel

The BPT Series is a Transient Protection System that provides heavy-duty surge protection and filtering for industrial and commercial sites against the harmful effects of transient energies induced on AC power lines. The BPT's unique construction allows it to deliver low clamping voltages while safely handling large surge currents. Configured for parallel installation, units install quickly and easily. All models are suitable for Type 1 or Type 2 service panel applications.

Models are available for all standard electrical services and provide up to 300kA of surge energy handling per phase. This rating is 30 times the energy handling of the IEEE's highest Category C location rating of 10kA/20kV using an 8x20μs waveform. All models carry a 100kA RMS symmetrical fault current rating making expensive disconnects and/or costly replacement fuses unnecessary.

On-board diagnostics include a panel display equipped with LED indicators that continuously monitor the operational status of the entire unit. An Audible Alarm is standard with switch positions for test, disable and enable. A Surge Counter and a set of NO/NC dry contacts are also standard. A Remote Monitor and/or Filter are available as options.

Weather Resistant models available in a NEMA 4X housing with internal diagnostics for harsh environments. Audible Alarm and Surge Counter are not included with the NEMA 3R model.

Configured for parallel installation. All models for Type 1 or Type 2 service panel applications. On-board diagnostics with LED indicators that continuously monitor the operational status of the entire unit.
