Superseding the popular ESP 240 and ESP 415 (and ESP 120 and ESP 208),
these advanced new protectors offer you many additional benefits.
On single phase supplies
of 200-280 volts use ESP 240 M1.
For three phase supplies
of 346-484 volts use ESP 415 M1.
If you desire a protector with
an extra high maximum surge current click here.
If your supply is fused at 16 amps, or less, the protectors here
may be more suitable. (Note these have a lower maximum surge current of
10kA).
Applications
Use on mains power distribution systems to protect connected
electronic equipment from transient overvoltage's on the mains supply.
Typical uses include the protection of:
Computer
equipment
Transmitter/receiver systems
Uninterruptible power
supplies (UPS)
Drives and inverters
Programmable logic controllers
(PLC)
Medical equipment

distribution panel.
Features and Benefits
Designed
to protect and survive in lightning intense environments.
Very
low let-through voltage restricts dangerous transient overvoltage's to
below the damage levels of equipment circuitry.
Protection
between all sets of conductors (phase to neutral, phase to earth and neutral
to earth) closes all transient paths to equipment for complete protection.
Maximum
surge current greatly in excess of the 10kA worst case indicated in BS
6651 and IEEE C62.41.
Repeated
protection in lightning intense environments with 20 years predicted lifetime.
Innovative
new Sovtrip™ multiple thermal disconnect technology, anticipates
standards authorities future demands, for safe disconnection from faulty
or abnormal supplies (without compromising protective performance).

ESP M1 Installation Instructions
Installation
Install in parallel, within the power distribution
board or directly on to the supply feeding equipment. At distribution
boards, the protector can be installed either on the load side of the
incoming isolator, or on the closest outgoing way to the incoming supply.
Connect, with very short connecting leads, to phase(s), neutral and
earth. On supplies over 100 amps, phase/live connecting leads should
be fused with either 63 or 100 amp high rupture capacity (HRC) fuses,
a switchfuse, MCCB or type 'C' MCB.

Three
way visual indication of protection status.
Advanced
pre-failure warning so you need never be unprotected.
Remote
indication facility allows pre-failure warning to be linked to a building
management system, buzzer or light.
Changeover
active volt free contact enables the protector to be used to warn of phase
loss (ie power failure, blown fuses etc).
Unique
flashing warning of potentially fatal neutral to earth supply faults (caused
by incorrect earthing, wiring errors or unbalanced conditions).
Robust
steel housing
Simple
parallel connection
Base
provides ultra low inductance earth bond to metal panels.

control system. Note the remote indication
connection (top of the protector).
Convenient
holes for flat mounting.
Compact
size for installation in the power distribution board.
Straightforward,
comprehensive installation instructions with every unit.
Maintenance
free.
5 year warranty.

Parallel connection of ESP 415 M1 or ESP 208 M1
to three phase star (4 wire and earth) supplies.
Connect with very short connecting leads, to phase(s), neutral and
earth. On supplies over 100 amps, phase/live connecting leads should
be fused with a either a 63 or 100 amp high rupture capacity (HRC) fuses,
a switchfuse, MCCB or type 'C' MCB.
Suitable Accessories
If the protector can not be incorporated within the panel use the
WBX 3 enclosure for the ESP 240 M1 or ESP
120 M1 and the WBX 4 for the ESP 415 M1 or
ESP 208 M1.
