Modular Surge Protection
Modular Surge Protection
Modular and Customizable Protection - 2,4 and 8
The EP-2800 series, a combination of waveform correction devices and surge protection devices, is an industrial filter/protector in three sizes with 2, 4, and 8 optional modules. 2800 is the only filter/protector in the industry that protects factories against catastrophic surges while also absorbing and dissipating harmful energy generated by electronic devices such as ballasts, computers, and industrial control circuits like VFDs.
Modular design provides a cost-effective method for meeting current protection needs while also allowing for future growth. This filter/protector is easy to install, typically less than one hour, and the modular design allows adding new modules in the field in minutes. The 2800 family can be fully customized with dual surge counters, remote relay status alarm, audible alarm, system/module status LEDs, and 600VAC, 200kA I.R integrated fusible disconnects; allowing direct bus connection with no upstream disconnect required.
2800 has a CA option that is fully customizable and allows the user to select the product that best fits the application.

Fusing
The 2800 series come equipped with 600VAC, 200 kA I.R. fuses. The fuses have surge ratings of 20kA-100kA 8X20μSec capacity. The fuses are located inside the enclosure. These fuses are specially designed to withstand 8X20μSec surge pulses without opening. Removing the fuses renders the unit inoperable.
LED Visual Notification
The 2800 series have green LED lighting on the cover of the unit for visual notification of the unit’s status. If the LED lights are on the unit is functioning properly. If any of the lights are extinguished, a module needs to be replaced. Inside the casing, red LED lights will indicate which module needs replacing.
Audible Alarm
The 2800CA series are equipped with an audible alarm that will trigger if a unit becomes disabled. There is an ON/ OFF switch to disable the alarm. Both the alarm and the switch are located on the outside/front of the unit directly above the surge counters.
Dry Contacts/Remote Relay
Perhaps your electrical room is tucked away in the back of the factory and has little or no foot traffic. The 2800CA series offer dry contacts that can connect to your preferred device to provide notification to wherever you would like.
Surge Counters
Want to know how many surge events you are protected from each month? Well, the 2800CA series come equipped with dual surge counters. The counters are on the front of the unit. Both counters are equipped with a gray reset button on the lower right hand corner of the surge counter. The reset button for the bottom counter has been disabled.
