Schneider Electric Surge Protection & Filters
Surge protection and filters from Schneider Electric protect industrial electrical systems, sensitive electronic devices and automation equipment from transient voltages, electrical noise and power disturbances. They are used in industrial automation and manufacturing, utility, and other mission critical applications where lightning and switching transients, and electromagnetic interference (EMI) can cause equipment failure or downtime. These surge protectors and filters reduce equipment failures and downtime and improve overall system reliability and life expectancy.
Schneider Electric surge protectors are used to prevent voltage transients from damaging equipment and to provide protection for a wide range of applications. They are used for the protection of PLCs, HMIs, power supplies, drives, sensors, communication systems, etc. These devices quickly respond to voltage transients to help prevent equipment failures and expensive downtime.
Power line filters from Schneider Electric help to eliminate electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI) to help prevent signal distortion and interference with control and communication systems. They are used to filter out noise on power and signal lines to help prevent signal distortion and equipment damage. This helps to ensure signal integrity and stable power.
FAQs
What are Schneider Electric surge protection devices used for?
