It is contained in a NEMA 12 enclosure for maximum protection from the elements. D/C POWER DIN RAIL MODULAR PROTECTION,   Protection device for radio facilities and image communicating facilities to prevent damaging over voltage transients from entering the system. It utilizes BNC male to female connections and has excellent high frequency transmission characteristics. HIGH VOLTAGE SURGE ARRESTORS GST has recently introduced arrestors for 4,160V, 2,400V, 660V and 480V applications. These rugged units are small, light weight, and easy to install in the most challenging environments. Best of all, they are reasonable priced, making them very cost-effective. The use of these devices is recommended by motor manufacturers, as they are designed to provide dielectric protection for the motor and insulation system. Because GST arrestors employ MOV technology, they negate the need for surge capacitors.
