T.R.A.P.- AC

The T.R.A.P.- AC product is designed to guard against very fast transients from any source. This includes radiated energy from a nearby lightning strike or an overhead EMP.

Features of the T.R.A.P.- AC product

The device contains a high-voltage 5,000-watt transient voltage suppression device. It plugs into the three-prong AC receptacle of an inverter or portable generator.

By shunting high-voltage spikes, it preserves sensitive electronic components. This device helps maintain the operational integrity of your backup power systems during emergencies.

Protection is vital for expensive surge-sensitive equipment. Using specialized hardware significantly increases the survival rate of your electronics against sudden electrical threats.

There are two ways to protect inverters and portable generators.

1. Enclose the unit in something conductive. EMP bags and EMP cloth provide excellent protection against radiated fields.

2. Use transient protection devices. The T.R.A.P.s can be inserted into the 12-volt DC and 120-volt AC plugs for comprehensive coverage.

Combining these methods creates a robust defense strategy. This dual-layered approach addresses both conducted and radiated electrical interference effectively.

What will a T.R.A.P.™ protect against?
The T.R.A.P.™ guards against very fast transients from any source. This includes lightning strikes or electromagnetic pulses (EMP).

It acts as a high-speed barrier for your electronics. This device reacts in nanoseconds to intercept dangerous spikes before they reach internal circuitry.

How are these devices effective against an EMP?
The danger from an EMP is the high voltage on cables. These brief transients can be suppressed using small, fast devices.

These units function by providing a low-resistance path to ground for excess energy. This keeps the voltage within safe operating limits for connected devices.

Can you use more than one T.R.A.P.™?
Absolutely. Using multiple energy “traps” helps to better shunt away unwanted energy from your equipment.

Placing units at different points provides redundant safety. This ensures that any residual energy not captured by the first device is safely managed.

Does the unit have an outlet on the back?
No. The back of the device is enclosed. It does not pass power through it.

The design focuses purely on suppression and energy dissipation. It is a dedicated safety component rather than a standard power adapter or extension.

Construction is rugged and built for long-term reliability. The compact form factor allows it to fit easily into standard generator panels without obstruction.

The device is simple to install and requires no professional tools. Simply plug it into a standard outlet to start protecting your vital hardware.
