SURGE PROTECTORS THAT WILL NOT FAIL!
For those serious about audio and video surge protection.

Zero Surge Protector
(Series Mode)
  • Will not fail
  • Does not degrade with each surge
  • No MOV's (Metal Oxide Varistors)
  • Rated 1000 surges @6000volts, 3000 amps
  • Does not divert surge to ground

  • Suppresses surge current
  • Certified to highest U S Government standards
  • 10 year warranty

Traditional Surge Protector
(Shunt Mode)
  • Will fail and can cause fires
  • Degrades with each surge

  • Uses MOV's
  • Rated 10 surges at 1000 amps

  • Diverts surge to ground harming other connected equipment
  • Does not suppress surge current
  • Can not come close

  • Should be replaced within two years or sooner

The traditional surge protector on the right can cause a lot of harm endangering your electronic equipment, possibly setting a fire to your home or business. MOV's wear out with use. You can buy it for a few dollars and take the risk. Isn't it worth spending a few extra dollars to protect your expensive computer, Plasma TV, LCD flat panel TV, expensive HDTV, TiVo, Home theater, or satellite receivers? As an added bonus, the Zero Surge technology removes the power line noise that can degrade audio/video signals.

POINT OF USE, TRADITIONAL SURGE PROTECTORS, SHUNT THE SURGE TO GROUND AT THE COMPUTER, WHERE IT LEAPS ACROSS SERIAL PORTS, NETWORK CONNECTIONS, ETC. DOING ITS DEADLY WORK.

Interconnected (networked) systems share common power and data lines form circuits between themselves via the ground wire (both referenced at the load). A power line surge diverted to the ground wire will make its way to the chassis, through the motherboard onto and through the data lines because the power line ground is used as a voltage reference and therefore is also connected at the motherboard and to the data ports of the rest of the connected system. This is where most data line surges originate.

Are you using a UPS Unit?

It is our contention that you should have a series mode surge protector, such as a Zero Surge unit, in front of your UPS unit? This is so that the MOV in the UPS unit won’t pollute the equipment ground and so the MOV won’t dump a lightning strike or other destructive spike onto the equipment ground where it can blow up other equipment whose signal wiring may be connected to the equipment ground.

Problems when you are using standby generators and your MOV type suppressors:

Standby generators used in critical applications can experience brief voltage overshoot during start up, load changes, and with contaminated fuel. Voltage overshoot will stress fixed clamping level (MOV Type) suppressors, leading to premature and unpredictable failure.

Zero Surge filters use Spectrum Wide Voltage Range Technology effectively functions from 85 volts all the way to 265 volts and anywhere in between.

Take a look at the fire dangers of MOV type surge protectors: Is it worth the risk to use MOV point of use surge protectors?

Two families on Bainbridge Island [in Puget Sound] lost their homes due to fires caused by Multiple Outlet Power Surge Suppressors during the one year ending Feb 1995. See information posted by the Bellingham, Washington fire department.

Surge suppressor that "started a small fire" at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center, U.S. Department of Energy's facility at Hanford 28 Aug 1999. See Lessons Learned.

In January 2003, an employee of the Greensport Yard in Houston arrived at work to find the office full of smoke from a burning surge suppressor, with a second surge suppressor of the same model hot and ready to burn. Click on University,

Organ State Fire Marshal warns of fire dangers of MOV's. "As more surges are diverted, the MOVs life span shortens, and failure becomes imminent. There is no forewarning or visual indications given - just failure. And while failing, they can reach very high temperatures, and actually start fires."

Don't get caught dead over using MOV type point of use surge protectors. Story about death of two people from MOV surge protector causing a fire.

What our customers are saying:

From Southern Ohio Communication Services, Inc. of Waverly , Ohio

"Just wanted to let you know how much we appreciated your quick response to our equipment problem.

Since we installed your company's power surge protector, we have had no further problems with our equipment losing power or going off line." This company is running a wireless internet system that was constantly dropping customers off the internet.

Thanks, I love these Zero Surges! A friend of mine, has now bought about 8 of them. We're spreading the word. Herman

PROBLEMS TO SOLID STATE EQUIPMENT CAUSED BY TRANSIENTS

UPSETS

Degraded information, Intermittent system halts, Memory loss, Erroneous characters, and Data errors

EROSION (Premature Failure)

Contact corrosion, Breakdown of chip insulation, Thermal runaway of transistors, Shortening of component life, and Daily etching down of chips

BURN-OUT (Fatal Failure)

Loss of power supplies, System failure, and Unexplained board failure

Note 1: Transient related problems are directly related to chip density. IC chips are being made with millions of components on a single chip. The denser, the more susceptible to transient voltages.

Note 2: Voltage regulators and line conditioners do not fix the transient problems. Because of the capacitive coupling between the primary and secondary winding of regulators and conditioners, when transients enter with very high rise times and high amplitudes, it will be coupled to the load side, causing damage, erratic behavior and degradation in microprocessor equipment they are supplying power to.

Why Zero Surge products are unique and superior


• Patented series mode technology suppresses not only surge voltage, but surge current and surge duration, providing total surge protection.
• A source of audio and video noise is eliminated because surges are not sent to your ground line, keeping it clean for interconnected equipment
• In addition to surge suppression, our filter technology removes the power line noise that can degrade audio/video signals
• No MOVs assures safety and provides "peace of mind"
• No surge related failures or degradation
• No downtime risks

Zero Surge now approaching their 17th year and still no failures nor degradation due to surge related issues.
