DESCRIPTION FEATURES
The SF160M offers superb protection at the main service panel for most applications. Computers, sensitive business equipment and other high tech equipment are guarded from damage, errors and downtime resulting from high speed transients.

The SF160M system provides a better transient pathway to ground. The SF160M system consists of a low impedance cable having only 1/3 the voltage drop of conventional cabling and a protector design with a very low internal voltage drop. This results in a lower transient  exposure to sensitive downstream equipment. The plug-in, plug-out protection modules guarantee a quick and easy repair in the unlikely event of a catastrophic transient occurrence, such as a nearby lightning strike.

The on-board diagnostics include front panel and internal LEDs, transient event counter, audible alarm and remote alarm. In addition, the unit is housed in a rugged indoor/outdoor NEMA 4 enclosure.
