Integrated transient voltage surge suppression (TVSS) is the number one choice for surge suppression in new construction applications. In addition to the extensive integrated SPD offering, Eaton’s surge protection product line includes a wide variety of surge current ratings, monitoring features and external enclosure options.

2013年2月13日 · In sizing TVSS (transient voltage surge suppression), what factors do I need to know from the customer? How do I compute the right TVSS for them? Here’s what I have:

Designed to protect TVSS systems per UL 1449 Second Edition Requirements. Able to withstand 8x20 μSec surge pulses without opening. Limiters are identified by a surge rating and not continuous current rating. RMS Symmetrical Current In Amperes x100.

2012年5月31日 · Question 1: Would it be recommended to install a TVSS at the MDP AND ALSO at the sub panel in the IT department? Or is the one at the MDP sufficient enough? Question 2: How would I go about properly sizing and choosing the best TVSS for my situation?

TVSS (Transient Voltage Surge Suppressor) and SPD (Surge Protective Device), both refer to the device that can protect the low-voltage electrical system from damages of transients, spikes or surges (indirect lightning strike induced from power lines).

TVSS guard against transient overvoltages, sometimes call transients, spikes or surges, hence the name Transient Voltage Surge Suppressor or TVSS. Transients are known to damage sensitive electronic equipment in homes, schools, commercial, industrial, and medical facilities, wastewater treatment plants, factories, etc..

component. When using these TVSs, the most important parameters are identified as the Rated Working Peak Voltage or Rated Standoff Voltage (V WM), the Peak Pulse Power Dissipation (P PP), Peak Impulse Current (I PP), and Clamping Voltage (V C). Further parameters are also described herein and how they might further influence selection of TVS ...

2001年8月3日 · Essentially, the voltage level of the transient voltage suppressor must correspond to the voltage at the location where TVSS will be applied. Another parameter to carefully be watched is amount of energy the TVSS can absorb and withstand.

3rd - Select the TVSS options. Depending on your application you may want to select a TVSS unit with additional options. The OVR range can be ordered with a safety reserve (”S” in the part number), a pluggable MOV (”P” in the part number), or with an auxil-lary contact (”TS” in the part number). (See the selection chart on the next ...

2018年7月2日 · The TVSS device absorbs or diverts all the energy present in the surge and clamping or holding the “let through” over voltage down to a level safe for exposed circuitry. TVSS protection is typically applied at several points throughout of facility.
