The MSDI surge diverter is designed to provide point-of-entry
protection against power surges caused by external sources
such as lightning strikes & substation switching. Common-mode
protection is available for sites remote from the M.E.N. point
including industrial sites & rooftops in multi-storey
buildings. An ideal device for all Category locations.

The MSDI surge diverters utilise MOV protection for both

Shunt Surge Diverter, 1 & 3 Phase, 40kA & 100kA


Eaton's SPDI surge diverters provide the ultimate solution for surge protection in single & multi-phase systems. Whether the
application involves residential homes, telecommunication facilities, hospitals, schools or heavy industrial plants, the SPDI surge
diverters provide protection against the damaging effects of lightning, utility switching, switching electric motors & more. SPDI surge
diverters can be installed as point-of-entry or sub-board protection & are connected in parallel with the power circuit via separate
protection HRC fuses. These devices are ideal for Category C & B locations.

The SPD120I is designed to protect single-phase power systems against surges & spikes caused by lightning strikes & other electrical
sources. The unit is intended for point-of-entry or main board protection in medium to high exposed locations. SPD120I are easily
configured for L-N or L-E protection for installations adjacent or remote from the M.E.N. link, which means it can provide protection
for commercial buildings to rural sites.

Eaton SPD50NGI
Class II/Cat C & B
Neutral-Earth Surge Protector
Applications:

• Equipotential Coupler
• Neutral-Earth Surge Arrestor
• Sub-boards remote from MEN point

Key Features:

• Compact Neutral-Earth Protection Solution


• Surge current rating from 50kA - 100kA In, 70kA - 150kA Imax
• Compatible with most switchboards
• Quick & simple installation

Neutral-Earth or Earth-Earth Equipotential Clamp

The SPD50NGI is designed for use as an equipotential coupler between separately-grounded systems to provide protection against
surge transients. Under normal conditions the coupler does not conduct, preventing earth loops & inter-circuit coupling. Under surge
conditions, effectively interconnecting the circuits for the duration of the surge.

The SPD50NGI is an ideal companion for the Quickmov™ surge diverter for surge protection in distribution boards remote from an
M.E.N point. the SPD50NGI equipotential coupler (gas arrestor) is connected between the neutral & earth bar for N-E surge
protection. The SPD50NGI is suppllied as an "in-line" cable assembly for ease of installation.

Eaton® SF8RM
Class II & III/Cat B & A
Single Phase Rack Mounted Filter/PDU
Key Features

• 8 way 10A Power Filter


• Can be rack or surface mounted
• 3 mode, 3 stage protection
• Resettable circuit breaker for over-current protection

Surge Filter, 1 Phase 10A, 25kA Primary

The SF8RM is designed to protect equipment against power surges & electrical noise whilst providing a convenient
combination of power outlets to suit most applications. A unique mounting system allows mounting in many different
modes to suit crowded racks. Even if no rack space exists, the units may be mounted externally on the front or rear of
the rack. For horizontal mounting, the units require a single 1RU rack space for installation. The unit may also be flush
mounted to either side of a rack or cabinet.
