INSTALLATION / INSTRUCTION MANUAL
This manual describes necessary points of caution when
you use this product, including installation, and basic main-
tenance procedure.
LIMITATION APPLICABLE TO M-RESTER
The M-RESTER will protect electronics equipment from
damage caused by lightning by absorbing most of the
surge voltages.
However, M-RESTER may not be effective against cer-
tain extremely high voltages caused by a direct or almost
direct hit by lightning.
M-RESTER must be installed according to this installa-
tion / instruction manual.
GENERAL
■
FUNCTION & FEATURES
• Designed specifically for AC power supplies up to 10 amps
• Discharge current capacity 10000A
• Absorbs surges only without affecting instrumentation
signal
• Indicator LED turns off with surge absorber anomaly
• Fuse provided for preventing ignition caused by failure of
surge absorber

for a very short time period.
POINTS OF CAUTION
■
ENVIRONMENT
• When heavy dust or metal particles are present in the at-
mosphere, install M-RESTER inside proper housing and
ventilate it.
• Do not install the M-RESTER where it is subjected to
continuous vibration. Do not apply physical impact to the
M-RESTER.
• Environmental temperature must be within -5 to +55°C
in order to ensure adequate life span and operation.
■
WIRING
• The discharge element incoporated in the M-RESTER is
grounded to its housing. Therefore, DO NOT do an insu-
lation test. If you do, the element will start discharging
between line and ground at the discharge voltage value.
■
RATED CURRENT
• Be sure that the rated current of protected equipment
does not exceed the maximum load current specification
of the M-RESTER.
• Be sure to install a breaker which matches the current
rating at the power source side of the M-RESTER.
■
AND ....
• We recommend that you keep spare M-RESTERs so that
you can replace them when necessary
