COMET CS290R
Original COMET coaxial protector with N female connector to N female connector. When the protector detects a large increase in current or voltage, it automatically directs it to ground, thus preventing equipment overload.
Great capacity to withstand high currents in a compact size. Great duration, thousands of possible downloads. Extremely sensitive against any excess current. Protector against atmospheric discharges manufactured with a coaxial type core with low insertion losses and high bandwidth.
1.- To use the protector correctly, it must be installed between the coaxial cables and/or as close as possible to the transceiver/receiver.
2.- For a correct connection to the grounding terminal, use a 2.5 to 3mm diameter copper cable. The end of the grounding copper wire must be buried at a minimum depth of 1 meter. Or connect it to a verified and effective ground connection.
3.- The protector is not waterproof, for outdoor use it must be properly protected by a waterproof box or similar.
4.- Figure 1 shows us a recommended installation using 2 protectors and 3 grounding points, thus providing great protection against discharges. When the protector detects a large increase in current or voltage, it automatically directs it to ground, thus preventing equipment overload.
Great capacity to withstand high currents in a compact size.
To provide the tower with adequate grounding, make the connection to it using copper (preferably) or thick aluminum wires in order to maintain a lower resistance measurement with ground. The protector is very effective against sudden increases in voltage, however it is not an absolutely perfect protection against excessive currents such as direct lightning strikes in our radiant system.
