Strikesorb
The next generation surge suppression module
The Strikesorb surge suppression module is
used either as a stand alone protection element The next generation surge suppression module
integrated inside larger systems or within Rayvoss
Transient Voltage Surge Suppressors.

It incorporates a single, heavy duty, distribution
grade Metal Oxide Varistor (MOV) disk, assembled
under pressure in an environmentally sealed alu-
minum casing.
Strikesorb’s unique design provides very low inter-
nal contact resistance, excellent thermal manage-
ment of the MOV and uniform distribution of the
surge current over the total area of the protection
element, thus resulting in an extremely high ener-
gy handling capability combined with very low let-
through voltages. Strikesorb's patented design
minimizes the effects of ageing and completely
eliminates the risk of catastrophic failure, explo-
sion or fire, which are common in conventional
surge protection devices.
Strikesorb incorporates state of the art MOV tech-
nology developments providing superior protec-
tion characteristics, which remain unchanged
throughout its long service life.
The module has been designed in order to
withstand repeated surges providing a
cost-effective and maintenance free operation
in harsh environments.
Strikesorb is the only UL 1449 2nd ed., including
changes effective February 9, 2007, recognized
surge protection module in the industry rated for
safe operation without the use of additional inter-
nal fuses. This unique feature combined with its
capability to be directly connected to the power
lines or bus bars (in-line connection), makes it the
most reliable surge protection device known and
insures that critical electronic equipment will
remain protected at all times.
Strikesorb is manufactured by Raycap Corporation
in its ISO 9001 certified industrial facilities.
