APPLICATIONS
• Direct lightning current captured by external lightning
protection device is absorbed through the earth electrode
to the ground. However, depending on the grounding re-
sistance, the ground potential increases, destroying the
insulation of low voltage electronics equipment and caus-
ing part of the direct lightning current to flow back to the
power supply side. To prevent such dielectric breakdown,
install the surge protector between grounding and power
supply of low voltage electronics equipment to save high
potential voltage applying to the low voltage electronics
equipment. (For TT system, one-port SPD between neu-
tral and protective earth (model: MALN) is required.)
• Installing to the low voltage inlet, protects the electronics
equipment around the inlet from direct lightning enter-
ing to the low voltage line.
• Installing M-System's class II surge protector (MAKF,
MAKN, MAT2) at the distribution board 10 m or more
away from the low voltage inlet, energy coordination is
achieved.
FEATURES
■
CURRENT CAPACITY
• The one-port SPD can be used regardless of the load cur-
rent.
■
SAFETY AND HIGH-DENSITY MOUNTING
• Using discharge tube filled with inert gas for discharge
element. Sealing type, and no gas emission at operation.
No safety clearance for fire prevention is needed. High-
density mounting. DIN rail mounting.
■
HIGH DISCHARGE CURRENT CAPACITY AND LONG LIFESPAN
• The MAL is designed to withstand 25 kA surges. Low re-
sidual voltage and long lifespan design compared to class
I varistor type surge protector.
■
PREVENTING ELECTRIC SHOCK
• The MAL’s terminal section covered with an insulation
enclosure has IP20 protection level to protect from an
electric shock.
• The MAL is designed for use with press-to-screw termi-
nals for a wide range of wire sizes from 8 to 35 mm

ACCESSORY
• Wiring bridge (model: CNB2) for easy cross-wiring for the
neutral line is available.
