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.

The MSFI is designed to provide point-of-entry protection against power surges caused by external sources such as
lightning strikes & substation switching as well as providing a measure of protection from surge events generated on the
secondary side of the filter. An ideal device for Category B & some Category C locations.
The MSFI is a 3-stage protection unit utilising primary & secondary MOV protection in conjunction with a Low-Q LC filter.
The unit provides filtering of the line harmonics, noise & RF transmitters with a cut-off frequency of

The DSFI is designed to provide secondary protection against power surges caused by external sources such as
lightning strikes & substation switching as well as providing a measure of protection from surge events generated
on the secondary side of the filter.

The DSFI is a 3-stage protection unit utilising primary & secondary MOV protection in conjunction with a 2-stage
Low-Q LC filter (i.e. 2 inductive coils) using separate differential mode & common mode circuits. The unit provides
filtering of the line harmonics, noise & RF transmitters with a cut-off frequency of 55dB to 10MHz.

Secondary MOV protection (in all 3 modes) is located after the inductive coils, to provide further surge reduction
& to protect against load-generated surges. An ideal device for Category B & A locations.

The CSFI is designed for mounting in distribution boards to provide secondary protection against power surges caused by external
sources such as lightning strikes & substation switching as well as providing a measure of protection from surge events generated on
the secondary side of the filter. An ideal device for Category B locations.

The CSFI is a 3-stage protection unit utilising primary & secondary MOV protection in conjunction with a Low-Q LC filter. The unit
provides filtering of the line harmonics, noise & RF transmitters with a cut-off frequency of 60dB.

All CSFI units are provided with indicators showing power & protection status. Alarms are indicated on the front panel of the unit.
The alarm function provides a summary alarm output for protection degradation as well as power failure. The protection alarm is
configured to partial protection failure. The summary alarm relay contacts provide remote signalling to other equipment.

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.
