HE300

Product Summary

The HE300 is a secondary surge "lightning" arrester. The HE300 is a MOV (Metal Oxide Varistor) based hardwired Secondary Surge Arrester, often referred to as a Lightning Arrester. The device is designed to protect electrical equipment from damaging effects of Spikes (+) and Notches (-) caused by lightning, utility switching, insulation arcing, electrical motor cycling, and other large or sudden changes in electrical power flow on incoming AC power lines. The HE300 is a single phase, two wire, arrester intended to protect 120 VAC systems. The epoxy encapsulated arrester is designed to be easily installed in any position indoors or outdoors utilizing the integral 1/2" threaded nipple and supplied metal lock nut. The housing is molded from flame retardant plastic that is both weather and UV resistant, and complies with the UL standard for strength and flame resistance properties. The arrester is sealed with UL component recognized epoxy potting compound. The HE300 has three 18" long, 12 AWG multi-stranded leads that are color coded for ease of installation. The HVPSI HE300 is ideal protection for outdoor lighting and pole lamps, panelboards, oilfield pumps, workshops, irrigation and sump pumps, refrigeration systems, farm equipment including milking machines and poultry processing equipment, electric motors and controls, heat pumps and air conditioning equipment and many other electrical devices. The HE300 utilizes a single MOV per pole to reduce the potential load balancing/sharing problems during operation.
