The surge suppressor HAW562 is used to protect electronic components against the destruction through overvoltages. It ensures that overvoltages that occur in signal lines (e.g. 4 to 20 mA), in communication lines (field buses) and in power lines, are safely discharged into the ground. The function of the transmitter or of the electronic component to be protected is not affected. Surge arresters are used to attenuate fault currents from upstream lightning protection measures and to limit system-related or generated surges.
