Coaxial Surge Protector - CSP
Robust design
Simple plug-in installation
CSP models to suit N and BNC cable terminations
CSP bulkhead N-type versions available
High impulse current rating (20kA 8/20s)
Wide operating frequency spectrum
Low insertion and return loss
Mounting bracket and ground lead included
CE approved
How to Choose the Correct CSP
For RF circuit protection the CSP is available with a choice of two
nominal clamping voltages. The selection of the CSP unit is based on
the peak transmitting power of the communication circuit. From this
the peak circuit voltage is calculated and the CSP with the next
highest clamping voltage is selected.
The formula is:
Vpeak = VSWR x 1.4 x Sqrt(50 x Transmit Power)
Where VSWR is the Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (use 1.5 if unsure)
and Transmit Power is in Watts.
If Vpeak <72V use CSPxxx90
If Vpeak >72V & <480V use CSPxxx600
