The Prosurge PSG Series Spark Arrestors have been designed for use with railway and industrial

installations for the protection of both equipment and personal from power system and lightning faults which can be induced into signalling and control circuits.

The PSG is designed for use in harsh installations and is constructed using stainless steel outer

components and UV stabilised Nylon insulating bases

The PSG is specifically for use on mast supports, level crossings and pedestrian bridges where there is any chance of potential difference between metalwork.

Suitable for track side locations without additional weather protection.

Protection between overhead catenary structure earth and system earth.

Protection between indirectly earthed systems and system or ground earth.

Protection of single bonded power cable circuits.

Protection of intermediate junction on cross bonded power cable systems.

Protection of cathodic protection power supplies.

Protection of low voltage DC power supplies.

Protection between pipeline and refinery systems.

The PSG is designed for above ground use suitably fastened by mechanical means.

( Optional mounting brackets are available)

For buried and underground installations check our other models.
