OPERATION

POWER MUST BE PROVEN
DISCONNECTED BEFORE INSPECTION
OR MAINTENANCE IS ATTEMPTED.
FAILURE TO DO SO MAY CAUSE
SERIOUS INJURY, DEATH AND/OR
PROPERTY DAMAGE. THE TRANQUELL
PRO-STOCK SERIES TVSS CONTAINS
NO USER SERVICEABLE PARTS.

The TRANQUELL

Series TVSS is a solid-

state device that utilizes ZnO varistors.
There are no gaps, no moving parts.

When the TVSS is in service under normal
conditions, the green LED indicating lights
are illuminated to indicate that the fuses are
not blown and surge protection is active.

The surge counter will sense and record
transient activity via a current transformer in
the neutral circuit (for delta configurations,
the ground circuit). The counter may be
reset to zero if desired.

A fuse will blow if the surge protector fails
shorted. Whenever the TVSS indicates an
alarm condition, it is recommended that the
protection module be replaced. Always
check the system for overvoltage conditions
before installing a new surge protector.

Should a fuse blow, its corresponding green
indicating LED will extinguish, the red alarm
LED will illuminate, the audible alarm will
sound, and the remote contacts will indicate
this change of status. The audible alarm
can be silenced by pressing the switch into
the DISABLE position. The red alarm LED
will continue to be illuminated after the
audible alarm is disabled.

The alarm functions may be tested by
pressing the switch to the TEST position.
This TEST position is intended for
momentary use only.
