This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing the STXR Series Surge Protective Device (SPD) to protect your equipment from transient overvoltages.
Estimated time: 45m
Tools needed:
Screwdriver, Wire strippers, Multimeter
Supplies needed:
Mounting screws, Terminal connectors, Watertight fittings (if applicable)
- Turn off power
Ensure all power supplying the equipment is turned off and confirm that the equipment and all sources are de-energized.
- Determine mounting location
Identify a mounting location for the SPD that is as close to the equipment as possible, ensuring that the LED status indicator will be visible.
- Mount the SPD
Secure the SPD to the mounting surface using appropriate mounting screws, ensuring it is level and firmly attached.
- Make electrical connections
Connect the SPD leads according to the wiring diagram provided, ensuring leads are trimmed to the shortest length possible and avoiding sharp bends.
- Energize the system
Turn the power back on and check the green LED status indicator to confirm proper operation. If the LED is off, troubleshoot the connections.
