Category C

SF160 (10235 bytes)
DESCRIPTION FEATURES
The SF160 is a heavy-duty main service panel protector. This is a no-nonsense device intended when protection is the only concern and cost is a vital consideration. The unit protects sensitive electronic equipment from damage or disruption associated with high speed-high surge current transients coming in on the power line.

The SF160 employs multiple-fused surge current paths with built-in redundancy and each phase is monitored by 2 green LED protection present indicators. Fully tested at the factory, this unit is ready to go and can be installed in minutes.
