BEFORE USE ....
Thank you for choosing M-System. Before use, check the package
you received as below.
If you have any problems or questions on the product, please
contact M-System's Sales Office or representatives.
n PACKAGE INCLUDES:
Lightning surge protector ................................................. (1)
n MODEL NO.
Check that model No. described on specification label is exactly
what you ordered.
n INSTALLATION / INSTRUCTION MANUAL
This manual describes necessary points of caution when you
use this product, installation, and basic maintenance procedure.
LIMITATION APPLICABLE TO M-RESTER
The M-Rester will protect electronics equipment from damage
caused by lightning by absorbing most of the surge voltages.
However, M-Rester may not be effective against certain
extremely high voltages caused by a direct or almost direct
hit by lightning.
M-Rester must be installed according to this installation /
instruction manual.
GENERAL
n FUNCTION & FEATURES
• Designed specifically for ON-OFF signals, protecting semicon-
ductor switches used for ON-OFF outputs from the computer
or PLC from lightning surge damage that enters on the wiring
between these instruments • 8 channels • Most convenient as
junction board • Minimum mounting space

POINTS OF CAUTION
n ENVIRONMENT
• Indoor Use
• When heavy dust or metal particles are present in the at-
mosphere, install M-RESTER inside proper housing and
ventilate it.
• Do not install the M-RESTER where it is subjected to
continuous vibration. Do not apply physical impact to the
M-RESTER.
• Environmental temperature must be within -5 to +55°C
(23 to 131°F) and relative humidity within 30 to 90% RH
in order to ensure adequate life span and operation.
n DIELECTRIC STRENGTH TEST
• DO NOT perform dielectric strength tests with wires con-
nected to the unit. Otherwise the element will start discharg-
ing at discharge voltage, which can cause insulation failure.
Be sure to return the wires after the test.
n AND ....
• We recommend that you keep spare M-RESTERs so that
you can replace them when necessary.
• Lightning surge can enter not only through signal lines
but also through power supply lines. We recommend that
you also use the Lightning Arrester for Power Lines for
sufficient protection.
