Complete Safety with 10-Point Protection

1. 3900 Joules

Protect your electronics from high Energy spikes

Joules indicate the total energy, from the beginning until the end of the spike. The high-Joule rating of the surge protector, ensures the safety of your AV gear or any other electronic device.

2. 135000 Amperes

Protect your electronics from high current spikes

Amperes indicate the maximum current of the spike, during a very short time. The high protection rating of the surge protector, ensures the safety of your AV gear or any other electronic device.

3. Reset Switch

Reset the surge protector easily, after a surge suppression shut-down

The surge protector will automatically cut the power supply to the connected equipment in case of sudden surge currents and voltages. Using the reset switch, you can easily restore normal operation to all your devices.

4. 100% Protection

Protect your devices against short circuits and overloading for both power lines

100% protection against short circuits and overloading for both line and neutral lines. Most surge protector manufacturers offer single-line overloading protection, exposing 50% of the connected appliances to potential overloading.

5. 70dB EMI/RFI protection

Maximize the performance of your connected equipment

Eliminate electromagnetic interference. The sensitive circuitry of your electronic equipment needs to be protected against electromagnetic noise and electric current “impurities”. All our surge protectors come with an impressive 70dB integrated filter.

6. Surge Warning LED

Receive immediate notification in case of an electrical surge

The embedded LED Protection indicator warns of surge currents and abnormal voltages.

7. Ground Warning LED

Check the grounding status of your connected devices

Multiple outlets, all equipped with enhanced surge protection, allow you to protect many connected devices at the same time.

8. Ultra Fast response Metal Oxide Varistors (MOV)

Protect your devices instantly, in case of sudden power surges

Keep your equipment safe, through the automatic disengagement of the appliances when the mains voltage exceeds the specified limits.

9. Thermal Insulation for Superior Electrical Safety

Protect your devices against fire hazards, due to a possible surge protector overheat

Our surge protectors use PE insulative material around the MOVs, ensuring efficient thermal coupling and anti-incendiary protection

10. Child safety lock

Protect your children from electrical hazard

The safety lock on every plug prevents your children from accidental electric shock, due to object insertion.

8 Outlets

Multiple connected devices

Multiple outlets allow you to have many connected devices at the same time.

What are the Surge Protectors?
- What are surges and how do Surge Protectors protect me against them?
  Surges are sudden electric spikes which are supressed by special circuits inside the Surge Protector
  
  Quite simply, surges are short over-voltages and over-currents that creep into the mains network mainly because of unexpected lightnings, or because of the sudden turning on and off of industrial or even household equipment. These surges can potentially destroy your equipment that is not designed to handle such great amounts of charge even instantaneously. Surge Protectors use special electronic parts (namely MOV - Metal Oxide Varistors) that short-circuit the sudden surges to the earth wire of your outlet once they detect an over-voltage. And they are pretty quick at detecting them (responce time about 1ns; that is 1 billionth of a second!). The surge is safely absorbed by the earth wire while the route to the connected on the Surge Strip devices is cut for protection.
- Why is the Joule rating one of the most important characteristics of Surge Protectors?
  Because it determines the size of the power surge a Surge Protector can suppress.
  
  The Joule rating is the most important factor for a Surge Protector because it is the measure of its capability to dissipate energy from a lightning (or general voltage or current surge) and direct it to the earth wire, while simultaneously cutting the connection to the connected devices. The higher the Joule rating, the safer your precious equipment is.
- Is my aerial also susceptible to surges that could damage my equipment?
  Yes! A thunderstrike is enough to severely damage all of the electronics connected to your TV.
  
  It certainly is. Since it is a metal construction (that is, highly conductive) that is placed at the highest point of your building, it is quite likely that it will function as a lightning arrestor if a storm hits your area. You definitely need to protect your TV, HD-Recorder and VCR from that possibility by inserting a Surge Protector, fetauring RF aerial protection, in between the aerial and the devices. Check our Surge Protection strips that offer RF aerial and F-pin Satellite protection and ensure that your expensive equipment is not at the mercy of a sudden storm!
- Do I need a Surge Protector for all my equipment?
  Practically yes, as every electronic device is susceptible to power surges.
  
  Ideally yes! All your equipment is sensitive to surges and can be destroyed by them. Mostly appliances with high precision electronic circuitry however, like Home Theaters, computers and screens, are prone to over-voltages, so they should at the very least be protected using a high quality surge protection strip.
- What does the Green LED of the Surge Protectors signify?
  The green LED indicates the proper earthing of a Surge Protector.
  
  The Green LED denotes a properly earthed outlet. It should be lit otherwise the Surge Protector is not functioning properly. If a surge spike creeps throught the network, the Metal Oxide Varistors (MOV) of the protector basically direct all the energy to the earth wire. If the outlet is not properly earthed, the extra charge won't be absorbed by the earth but will most likely destroy the surge strip and the connected devices. So, be aware! The Green LED should be lit. If it's not try another outlet and consult a technician.
- Are Crystal Audio Surge Protectors also stabilising the power?
  No. You will need a separate device for this.
  
  No. The Crystal Audio Surge Protectors are not stabilising the power. In order to stabilise it you need either a high quality UPS with electronic AVR (Automatic Voltage Regulation) function, or you need an AVR using a variable tranformer. The latter is the best solution for Home Theater systems although it doesn't have its own batteries so it can only work for a specified range of the input voltage.
- So, is it all about protection from surges?
  Yes, but besides this, protection from EMI and RFI is also equally important.
  
  Yes it is about protection, but not only about that! The Crystal Audio surge protectors feature filters that drastically reduce the Electromagnetic and Radiofrequency Interference (EMI & RFI) by 50dB to 80dB. That results in much improved audio reproduction (without any noise, hum, clicks and pops) and a crispier, free of shadowing and artifacts image.
- Are Joules the same thing as Watts?
  No, Joules are an surge suppression metric, while Watts are a measure of power consumption.
  
  No. Joules are a metric of the ability of the Surge Protector to dissipate the extra energy of a surge spike, while Watts give the constant power that the connected devices consume under normal operation. Watts are related to the voltage of the mains and the current that the appliances absorb. If you want the maths, it is: Watts = Volts x Amperes (Power = Voltage x Current)
