AC MITIGATION AND DECOUPLING
Over Voltage Protector (OVP)
Modern transient protection engineered for today’s cathodic protection environments.
Product
The Cathtect OVP is engineered for today’s cathodic protection environments, delivering compact, solid-state transient protection that clamps lightning and switching surges without interrupting CP system continuity. Built for across-flange installations and remote infrastructure, it provides a precise, maintenance-free discharge path only when voltage exceeds a defined threshold, all within a rugged Ex e-rated enclosure suited for space-constrained, safety-critical locations. As a modern alternative to legacy transient devices, the OVP reflects Cathtect’s focused engineering approach – compact, precise, and purpose-built for real-world grid conditions. While traditional suppliers rely on older architectures, Cathtect advances the category with solid-state reliability, transparent performance documentation, and application-specific design that meets the demands of modern critical infrastructure.
