  3. Why Power Protection? An astonishing 53 percent of equipment failure can be attributed to power surge/failure Main Causes of Equipment Failure

  4. Surge Protection

  5. Ground(G) Hot(H) Neutral(N) Standard Utility Lines/OutletsHot, Neutral and Ground lines (standard 3 prong outlet)can all carry a surge Phone and LAN Lines Cable (A/V) Lines Why do we need a Surge Protector? • On average, your home or office will receive over 150 power disturbances per year, with certain areas sustaining more than 400 disturbances! • IBM estimates that your computer experiences over 125 electrical disturbances per month. • Small surges and spikes will slowly damage today’s sensitive electronics. • Surges and spikes can enter your electronics in a number of ways:

  6. Understand the Components Power Strips vs. Surge Protectors Power Strips • Offers expanded outlet space • No electronics • No protection against surges, spikes, or other electrical disturbances • Never expires • Surge Protectors • Offers surge protection to all connected electrical equipment • Has electronics (Circuit Board, MOVs, Sidactors, Fuses, and Ceramic Arrestors) • Electronics enable the surge protector to understand an “overload” situation and to to re-route dangerous levels of electricity away from your sensitive electronics • Surge Protectors expire over time

  7. What is Voltage? • Voltage is a measure of a difference in electric potential energy. • Electric current travels from point to point because there is a greater electric potential energy on one end of the wire than there is on the other end. This is the same sort of principle that makes water under pressure flow out of a hose - higher pressure on one end of the hose pushes water toward an area of lower pressure. You can think of voltage as a measure of electrical pressure. SURGE Increase in Energy > 3 nanoseconds SPIKE Increase in Energy 1 or 2 nanoseconds

  8. What happens if voltage is too high (Surge or Spike)? • Without any protection, if the surge or spike is high enough, it can inflict severe damage on a machine. The effect is very similar to applying too much water pressure to a hose. If there is too much water pressure, a hose will burst. • Approximately the same thing happens when too much electrical pressure runs through a wire - the wire "bursts." Actually, you can think of it as heating up like the filament in light bulb and burning - it's the same idea. • Even if increased voltage doesn't immediately break your machine, it may put extra strain on the components, wearing them down over time. ! ! ! ! ! !

  9. Where does the Energy Go? • A standard surge protector passes the electrical current along from the outlet to a number of electronic devices plugged into the power strip. If the voltage from the outlet surges or spikes - rises above the accepted level - the surge protector diverts the extra electricity into the outlet's grounding wire. In homes this moves the energy into a rod stuck deep into the ground. • As a backup, some surge protectors also have a built-in fuse. A fuse is a resistor that can easily conduct current as long as the current is below a certain level. If the current increases above the acceptable level, the heat caused by the resistance burns the fuse, thereby cutting off the circuit. If the MOV doesn't stop the power surge, the extra current will burn the fuse, saving the connected machine. This fuse only works once, as it is destroyed in the process. Ground(G) Hot(H) Neutral(N)

  10. What is EMI/RFI? • Some surge protectors have a line-conditioning system for filtering out "line noise," smaller fluctuations in electrical current. Basic surge protectors with line-conditioning use a fairly simple system. On its way to the power strip outlet, the hot wire passes through a toroidal choke coil. The choke is a just ring of magnetic material, wrapped with wire - a basic electromagnet. • The ups and downs of the passing current in the hot wire charge the electromagnet, causing it to emit electromagnetic forces that smooth out the small increases and decreases in current. This "conditioned" current is more stable, and so easier on your computer (or other electronic device).

  11. Features & Benefits

  12. Surge Protection Design • MOVsMetal Oxide Varistorsare Semiconductors that start conducting when their Clamping Voltage* is reached. It acts like a “sponge” to “soak” up a power surge. The more MOV’s a surge protector has the higher the Joule rating. • Thermal Fuses Thermal Fuses are located immediately beside the MOVs to cut power if the heat from the MOVs reaches a designated level. A thermal fuse is a component that will break the electrical circuit if too much heat is generated by melting MOV’s. *Clamping Voltage is the voltage at which a surge suppressor completely absorbs all excess voltage.

  13. Surge Protection Design • SidactorA sidactor is a solid-state over-voltage protection component used in phone line protection. A sidactor will switch open when a surge occurs. When the surge is over, the switch will close and be ready to protect against the next surge. The advantage is that a sidactor will never wear out, unlike an MOV that after repeated surges will wear out. Sidactors will only work on a low voltage line, so they can’t be used for AC lines. • Gas Tubes - for coaxial lines protection • Additional Components such as High-frequency Capacitors & Torodial Coils provide EMI/RFI filtration benefits.

  14. Commitment to Quality Belkin continually re-inspects products and facilities throughout the lifetime of the product’s market presence, not just for initial shipments

  15. Commitment to Quality • Belkin has full engineering expertise at its disposal, reviewing product from conception to implementation, and throughout the product lifecycle • Engineers work closely with manufacturers to review schematic designs, and oversee rigorous testing to ensure product safety and performance standards.

  16. Qualifying Questions and How to Recommend • Which room is it being used for? • Home Office, Bedroom, Home Theater, Garage, Kitchen? • What types of equipment (computing, audio/video) or appliances are being plugged in to it? • Modem, Monitor, Desktop, Blender, DVD Player, Satellite Receiver, etc.? • Relevant info before recommending Type of Protection (AC, Modem, Coax) • Number of outlets? • Ranges from a single outlet (tap) to 11 or more • Cord Length • Cords of 1 to 4 meters or more in length • Level of Protection (if customer cares or relates to this feature) • Measured in Joules - the amount of excess energy the protector can absorb before failure
