Benefits and Features
 
Excellent protection against spikes on serial line.
 
Easy to install, approx 5 minutes.
 
Compact simple to use in-line design.
 
Effective economical spike protection.
 
 All 8 data lines are fully protected, 9th is ground.
 
Totally 100% hand assembled and tested for reliability.

  We recommend using one Surge-Zapper at each serial device, for improved surge protection to the Console at 
  a gasoline outlet. This will effecively protect from static discharges via the serial cable to earth, thus 
  ensuring that the console computer equipment is fully guarded against spikes.

  The unit is connected to protect a 9 way serial link all 8 wires are each individually surge protected, 
  wire number 9 is ground (earthing).  All eight wires are fully protected.

  The green wire must be attached to a very good ground (earth) source for the protection to work. 

  This may require the addition of an earth spike driven into soft ground, preferably near a dampened area 
  for best results.

  Do not connect nor remove a Surge-Zapper with the system is live.  You must "power-down" both ends.

  Warranty is limited to replacement of unit if it proves to be faulty.   As with all lightning protection devices,
  we do not guarantee it will stop major lightning hits, a strike of over 1 Million volts would be patently obvious, 
  however it will absorb the impact of localized static and spikes and ground EMF. 
  Direct hits by lightning cannot be protected by any means what-so-ever, if you really know how, then let us know !

  Lightning tends to go where ever it wants, however,  by creating a path by which it can easily travel to ground 
  as it is expressed, the path of least resistance, via the Surgezapper, we feel this will do the job as required.

  12 months warranty on Surge-Zapper cover defects in assembly or manufacturing only.

  Note: In the event of a large spike, the Surge Zapper may destroy itself in absorbing the impact of a spike.
  We can replace the spent parts with new ones (at your expense) the surge zapper has done its job.
  After a spike, Please return the Surgezapper device for testing and rebuilding at a moderate economical price.

  Below is a typical situation. The Gas station is often "zapped" by static electricity and lightning strikes nearby  
  Fitting of one (or more) Surge-Zappers to the serial lines from the pumps will greatly reduce your exposure to line  
  infiltrations of static electricity and the potential of near-by lightning strikes. Lightning is difficult to control due  
  to the huge amount of energy contained in a single lightning strike, however a surge zapper will greatly reduce your  
  chances of being totally wiped out by such a strike, thus keeping your business steam flowing without serious down-time.  

  The units above are connected to protect several 9 way serial links to the service (Gas or Petrol)  station CONSOLE sales SIU 
  and the main computer storing all the information, which naturally would be surge protected and main filtered and have a reliable 
  standby uninterruptable power supply unit power.
  Note, here again all 8 wires are each individually surge protected, wire 9 is ground.
  The thick green wire must be attached to a very good ground source for the protection to work.
  This may require the addition of an earth spike, preferably near a "dampened" area for the  best results.
  A Final reminder " Never connect " nor remove a SurgeZapper with the system is live even at any end.
