CSW / SL Surge Protection Module
for Non-OmniControl Commercial Gate Operators
This Surge Protection Module will provide protection for the following input commands.
Please read this entire manual before installation
Chamberlain Professional Products
strongly
recommends the installation
of this Surge Protection Module to protect the gate operator from harmful
surges caused by lightning strike phenomenon.
It is important to recognize that the surge protection module may not
prevent damage to the gate operator in the event of a direct lightning
strike.
The success of the surge protection will be based in the proper installation
of the Surge Protection Module and the proper grounding of both the
surge protector module and the gate operator itself.

Earth Ground Rod Installation
The earth ground rod must be located within 3 feet from the gate
operator. Use the proper type earth ground rod for your area.
The ground wire
must
be a single, whole piece of wire.
Never
splice two wires for the ground wire. If you should cut the
ground wire too short, break it, or destroy its integrity, replace it
with a single wire length.
12 gauge wire
Proper grounding gives an electrical charge, such as from an
electrical static discharge or a near lightning strike, a path from
which to dissipate its energy safely into the earth.
Without this path, the intense energy generated by lightning could be
directed towards the gate operator. Although nothing can absorb the
tremendous power of a direct lightning strike, proper grounding can
protect the gate operator in most cases.

Step-by-Step instructions (con't)
STEP 13
Test all the accessories in combination with the gate operator to corroborate proper installation and functionality.
For additional protection against surges, ensure that the cables or wires going to your accessories comply
with the following rules:
All wires going the accessories
must
be shielded wires.
The
shield
must
be connected as follows:
A) At the gate operator: To the chassis of the gate operator
B) At the accessories: To their chassis (Earth grounding at the accessories will be even more beneficial)
Ensure that the connections to the chassis are made secure to create good contact.
