Edco BMC Series



The BMC Series is a rugged, highly reliable main or branch distribution panel surge protector.

Installed in parallel, the BMC Series offers maximum protection for major facilities such as manufacturing plants, office buildings, hospitals, entertainment complexes, retail centers, schools etc... In addition, the BMC Series is ideal for protecting computer installations, switchgear, CNC machines and other sensitive electronic-based equipment

The BMC Series offers full redundancy which means if your primary protection fails on any phase you still have back up with a secondary. This redundancy is monitored with 6 diagnostic indicator lights.

In addition, redundant replaceable series fusing is designed in for safety and economics.
