With over two decades of experience in the surge suppression industry and extensive R&D initiatives, Eaton is considered a world leader in surge protective device (SPD) manufacturing. All of Eaton’s products are manufactured in an ISO® 9001:2000 and ISO 14001 certified facility.

Eaton’s CVX050/100 models are rugged, cost-effective, high-quality SPDs that feature self-protected MOVs that eliminate the failure characteristics of standard metal oxide varistors. This technology results in a fail-safe device that monitors the status of the metal oxide disk and disconnects itself from the power system when the disk is approaching breakdown.

The CVX050/100 is easy to install adjacent or even internal to electrical equipment. When installing an SPD in a retrofit environment, it is important to mount the device as close to the electrical equipment as possible. Keep the wiring (lead length) between the electrical equipment and SPD as short as possible, and twist or wire tie the conductors together to reduce the wire’s impedance factor.
