Powerline Protection System

Spike Power Protection Systems & Technologies offers Powerline Protection System developed by Erico. Modern electronics and circuitry used in computing, communications and control/alarm installations are highly susceptible to damage from lightning surges and other transient over-voltages. Erico specialises in providing protection at 2 points: at the point of entry of power lines to buildings, high energy shunt diverters rapidly limit surges into the facility, directing the excess surge energy safely to ground; and the Critec Dinline family of SPDs including shunt diverter and series filter models provide various levels of protection from surges on power lines with the convenience of easy installation on 35 mm DIN rail mounting. As a protection solutions provider, the company also offers protection and consultancy services to suit specific industry applications ranging from power conversion for the telecommunications industry to plugging power line filters for the home/small office environment. For the sensitive electronic equipment protection or when high performance protection is required, surge reduction filters (SRFs) are recommended. They reduce the peak residual voltage to suitably low levels and dramatically reduce the rat of current and voltage rise to down stream equipment. The Critec SRF family uses suitably designed low pass filter technologies co-ordinated with shunt diversion stages incorporating both the Erico Transient Discriminating (TD) and Triggered Spark Gap (TSG) Technologies. The coordination of each of the above technologies within one package provides the ultimate hybrid technology performance resulting in a robust surge rating and extremely low residual voltages with a high Maximum Continuous Operating Voltage (MCOV), designed to withstand sustained over-voltage conditions. The company is technology driven and a service provider in the field of facility electrical protection. This company is in the business of providing facility electrical protection against the damaging effects of lightning, surge transients and switching transients. This area is the state of art, which is emerging as an important factor due to the dependence of electronic computing and services provided by the Information Technology and Telecom sector to all industries, buildings and services. This state-of-the-art technology and products are offered in association with a world leader M/s ERICO Inc., who are in this field for over 100 years. Installations include various projects in the following industries: aviation, telecom cellular sector, telecom basic services, textile industry, hotel industry, prestigious software houses, printing and publishing, television and media, hospital, wind farms and oil and natural gas and the engineering industry.
