The 587B Low Profile (LPE) Series is designed for European applications where no
line to ground or neutral to ground suppression is allowed. These modules employ a
three stage technology proven to be the most cost effective and reliable method in
protecting sensitive electronic equipment from over voltage transients.

This series is designed to protect AC powered equipment from the 6,000 Volt peak
open circuit voltage and 3,000 Amp short circuit current as defined in ANSI/IEEE
C62.41, Category CI.

Figures 1 and 2 are photographs of digitized waveforms
showing the typical clamping action of a 16 ampere module.
A 12 Ohm resistor is used to represent a 10 Amp equipment
load. The load is then subjected to the ANSI/IEEE C62.41
Category CI test conditions (6,000V/3,000A). These photo-
graphs contrast the effect on equipment with and without the
protector.
The 587BxxxLPE Series offers a high degree of protection against 240 VAC EMI line
noise. It is ideal for protecting 800 Volt components because the solid state TVS
technology assures that the line-to-neutral voltage will not exceed 800 Volts. While
the modules are designed for transient voltage protection, the advanced circuitry will
also attenuate the amplitude and slow the rate of rise of high frequency noise acting
as an EMI filter. The 587BxxxLPE Series includes common mode protection, which
are effective in reducing interference from line to equipment and are effective in
reducing equipment generated noise to meet FCC, VDE and CSA interference
requirements.
