Philips Surge Protector SPP2284WA User Manual

HANDBOOK  
Choosing the right surge protector  
Installation instructions  
Make sure you have the correct surge protector for your connected  
equipment. Philips makes a full range of power products for almost every  
type of electronic equipment. Power surges can occur on any line running  
into your home or ofce. This includes AC power lines, telephone lines,  
and coaxial lines. A properly installed surge protector will ensure protection  
from the power surges that continually hit your electronic equipment. If your  
connected equipment has connections through a telephone or coaxial line,  
Philips strongly recommends that you purchase and properly connect your  
equipment to a surge protector designed to protect those features. If you  
receive a power surge through your phone or coaxial line, and your equipment  
is not properly connected to a surge protector designed to protect those  
surges, any problems that arise will not be remedied under the warranty.  
Power Connections  
Your Philips surge protector should be plugged directly into a  
properly grounded outlet. All connected equipment should be plugged  
directly into your surge protector. Using any extension cord, adapters,  
other grounding wires or electrical connections in conjunction with a  
Philips surge protector will void all Philips warranties. (For longer cord  
applications, use a Philips surge protector with a 10 or 12 foot power  
cord.) All wires leading into the equipment, including telephone and  
coaxial lines, must pass through an appropriate Philips surge protector.  
Surge protector models with telephone protection are designed to provide  
maximum protection from surges present on standard two wire “dial up”  
telephone service. Other communications networks which happen to use  
modular jacks may not benefit from this protection. CAUTION: The telephone  
feature of this product could be rendered inoperable if improperly installed.  
Coaxial Cable Connections  
Some Philips surge protector  
models come with Coaxial Cable  
surge protection. Instead of running  
a connection directly from your  
TV/VCR/Cable Box to the wall  
jack, you must pass the connection  
through the protected coaxial  
Philips surge protectors use an indicator display light to alert you to your  
surge system’s effectiveness. The “Protection Working” indicator light shows  
“ON” when surge protection circuitry is functioning properly. If that light is  
off, it indicates that your surge unit has reached capacity and is no longer able  
to protect against surges. Some units also  
This product, like all surge protectors, has a limited life. Even under  
normal circumstances, and in the absence of defects, the product’s life will end  
when the components providing surge protection exceed capacity and cease  
to provide protection from surges and spikes. This surge device features an  
internal protection that will disconnect the surge protective component at the  
end of its useful life, but will maintain power to the load (connected equipment)  
- now unprotected, thus, acting as a multiple outlet strip. If this situation is  
undesirable for the application, the surge protector should be replaced. Units  
with Power Blocker™ protection will cease to conduct power through the unit  
once they have reached capacity. At that time, the unit needs to be replaced to  
ensure proper protection. Units with Power Blocker™ 2 technology will cease  
to conduct power through the unit once the MOV’s have reached capacity.  
In the event of an overvoltage condition, the Instant Reset button on a Power  
Blocker ™ 2 product will trip, and the unit will not conduct electricity. The  
user can reset the circuit after the event to restore surge protection. If the red  
led goes out on a Power Blocker™ 2 product, the unit needs to be replaced  
to ensure proper protection. The Power Blocker™ 2 instant reset feature  
protects the AC lines, and is not applicable to telephone or coaxial lines.  
have a “Ground” indicator light to show  
you that the wall outlet is wired properly.  
connections on your surge protector.  
Connect your incoming  
cable/broadband line to the  
“Input” coaxial connector on  
the surge protector. Connect  
a coax cable into the “Output”  
coaxial connector on the surge  
protector, and connect the other  
end of the Coaxial Cable to the  
input coaxial connector of the  
device you want to protect.  
Phone/Fax/Modem Connections  
Some Philips surge protector models  
come with Solid State Phone/Fax/Modem  
surge protection. Instead of running a  
connection directly from your Phone/  
Fax/Modem to the wall jack, you must  
pass the connection through the protected  
jacks on your surge protector.  
IN/OUT Phone Line Protection  
Connect your phone/fax/modem line  
To claim damage under the  
from your wall outlet to the “Input” jack  
on the surge protector. Connect a phone  
cord into the “Output” jack on the surge  
protector, and connect the other end of  
the phone cord to the phone/fax/modem  
jack of the device you want to protect.  
Connected Equipment Warranty as a result of coaxial line transients,  
equipment must be properly connected to a Philips surge protector which  
offers coaxial line protection.  
If you fail to connect the Coaxial Cable protection, your  
Standard surge protectors are not designed to protect against  
sustained low voltage situations. Sustained low voltage situations  
can cause damage to some connected equipment. If you are in an  
area prone to sustained low voltage situations, you should purchase  
an Uninterrupted Power Supply (UPS) with surge protection.  
connected equipment will not be covered by the Connected  
Equipment Warranty. Most TV/VCR damage can be prevented  
if you take the time to connect Coaxial Cable protection.  
Splitter Phone Line Protection  
Splits incoming phone line into  
two outs. Ideal for people with  
one telephone number, who use  
a modem and telephone. Note:  
Modem and phone can not be used  
at the same time.  
To claim damage under the Connected  
Equipment Warranty as a result of  
telephone service line transients,  
equipment must be properly connected  
to a Philips surge protector which  
offers telephone line protection, and  
your telephone service equipment  
must include a properly installed  
and operating “primary protection”  
device at the service entrance. (Such  
devices are normally added during  
telephone line installation.)  
Surge protector models with coaxial protection are designed to provide  
maximum protection from surges present on standard coax/broadband lines.  
Other communications networks, such as antennas, satellite dishes, which  
happen to use coaxial connections may not benet from this protection.  
You should select a Philips model specically designed for DBS products for  
additional protection.  
Power Blocker™ Protection Feature  
Philips products with Power Blocker™ protection are designed to  
sacrifice themselves in order to save equipment connected to it. Their  
circuitry is designed to cut off all power to AC outlets in the event of an  
electrical or power surge that overwhelms their protection. If your surge  
protector is not allowing current to pass and the protection working LED  
is off, then your surge protector has performed its duty – protecting your  
equipment – and you must purchase a new unit to replace the expired unit.  
CAUTION: The coaxial feature of this product could be rendered inoperable  
if improperly installed.  
If you have additional questions, or if you would like to locate the Philips retailer  
nearest you, please contact our customer service department at (800) 233-8413.  
If you fail to connect the phone/fax/  
Equipment connected to products with Power Blocker™ protection will  
be additionally covered in the event of equipment damaged by a lightning  
strike. No surge protector will entirely protect against a direct lightning  
strike. The surge protector itself is expected to be damaged, thus performing  
its duty, and you must purchase a new unit to replace the damaged unit.  
modem protection your connected  
equipment will not be covered by the  
Connected Equipment Warranty. Most  
modem damage can be prevented  
if you take the time to connect the  
phone/fax/modem protection.  
Note: This device features an internal protection that will disconnect the  
surge protective component at the end of its useful life but will maintain  
power to the load - now unprotected. If this situation is undesirable for the  
application, follow the manufacturer’s instructions for replacing the device.  
2-Device Phone Line Protection  
Advanced two-line phone/modem/  
fax protection. Allows use of two  
devices simultaneaously.
