Engineered with high-energy MOV technology and rapid thermal disconnector response (≤25ns) to withstand severe lightning transients across Surabaya's coastal power lines.
Surabaya, as the capital of East Java and Indonesia’s second-largest industrial hub, presents a high-risk operating environment for electrical power distribution. Situated near the Madura Strait, the metropolitan region experiences extreme tropical humidity (averaging 75% to 90%) coupled with an intense keraunic level of 180 to 210 thunderstorm days per calendar year. Cloud-to-ground lightning discharges in the Gresik and Rungkut industrial corridors frequently generate transient voltage spikes exceeding 20kV on overhead PLN (Perusahaan Listrik Negara) medium-voltage distribution lines.
Furthermore, switching operations within heavy port automation networks—such as continuous container crane operations at Tanjung Perak Port—produce severe inductive load surges. Unprotected Variable Frequency Drives (VFDs), Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs), and rooftop Photovoltaic (PV) inverters suffer premature insulation degradation, thermal runaway, and catastrophic PCB failures when subjected to these repetitive microsecond transients.
Our heavy-duty Surge Protection Devices (SPDs) integrate modern solid-state Metal Oxide Varistors (MOVs) and Gas Discharge Tubes (GDTs) with high thermal stability to ensure maximum continuous operating safety.
Integrated dual thermal fuse mechanism automatically isolates the SPD module from the main grid under extreme surge overload or end-of-life status, preventing catastrophic panel fire risks in high-temperature ambient conditions.
Features a modular plug-in design allowing fast field replacement of degraded surge protection cartridges without disconnecting main system wiring, dramatically reducing downtime for Surabaya production lines.
Equipped with floating dry contact changeover signal contacts (NO/NC) for seamless integration with SCADA, BMS, or remote IoT monitoring platforms across distributed telecommunication towers and remote sub-stations.
Comprehensive equipment protection protocols custom-engineered for municipal, commercial, renewable, and maritime infrastructure throughout East Java.
Surabaya’s growing adoption of commercial rooftop solar installations in SIER (Surabaya Industrial Estate Rungkut) requires heavy-duty DC SPDs. Our 1000V DC & 1500V DC Type 2 arresters safeguard inverter power stages against atmospheric static strikes and switching surges, complying strictly with IEC 61643-31 standards.
Tanjung Perak Port crane logistics and maritime equipment demand extreme electrical robustness. Our Type 1+2 heavy AC arresters feature high impulse discharge capacity (Iimp up to 25kA 10/350μs), protecting sensitive motor drives and PLC systems from saline moisture and severe switching transients.
Cellular base stations and data transmission nodes scattered across Surabaya are highly exposed to direct lightning strikes. Compact 48V DC and 220V AC signal and power SPDs maintain low clamping voltage levels (Up < 1.2kV), preventing costly communication network blackouts.
Navigating local regulatory mandates in Indonesia requires strict adherence to international electrical standards. Our surge protection line is certified under IEC 61643-11 (Low-voltage surge protective devices) and EN 50539-11, aligning seamlessly with PLN SNI regulations for municipal and commercial grid integration.
We provide streamlined B2B logistics for Surabaya importers, EPC contractors, and panel builders. Direct container shipping lanes from Ningbo/Shanghai ports directly to Tanjung Perak Port in Surabaya allow fast transit times of 10 to 14 days, backed by complete Certificate of Origin (Form E for ASEAN tariff preferences), full test reports, and custom technical documentation.

Selecting the correct Surge Protective Device requires careful evaluation of system grounding (TN-S, TN-C-S, TT, or IT networks) and expected surge energy levels.
Impulse Current (Iimp 10/350μs): Recommended for main service entrance panels where building lightning protection systems (LPS) are present. Essential for Surabaya high-rise structures and exposed industrial complexes in Gresik.
Nominal Discharge (In 8/20μs): Installed in sub-distribution panels and control cabinets. Protects downstream equipment against indirect lightning strikes and internal switching transients generated by heavy machinery.
Max Continuous Operating Voltage (Ucpv): Rated up to 1000V DC or 1500V DC. Configured in Y-bridge topology to protect string inverters against both positive-to-ground, negative-to-ground, and differential mode surges.
