OPERATION and FEATURES

SPD's do not require operator intervention after installation. However, the LEDs should be checked weekly to ensure that the SPD is functional.

NOTE: The PMH3XLM has a green LED for each phase which extinguish when the module is no longer providing protection (fault condition). The only serviceable part is the Display Board Assembly (see Service Manual).

The PMH3XLM contains a diagnostic circuit which monitors the suppressors status continuously and automatically. If a fault condition were to occur, the built-in front panel audible alarm will sound and a red "Service" LED will light, indicating that the unit is in need of service by a qualified electrician.
