OVCD- Over Voltage Cut-off Device
Over Voltage Cut off device (OVCD)
Micro Systems Services has successfully developed one of the most powerful and unique protection devices – simply called the OVCD–Over Voltage Cut-off Device. The OVCD is a marvel of ingenuity and engineering and has a specially designed chip at the heart of the product.
This rugged, compact and low cost device is absolutely dependable to perform the task it has been designed for, that is, protect all equipment and instruments connected to it. It effortlessly withstands voltage fluctuations up to 440 Volts and spikes up to 6000 Volts. It is programmed with a power-on delay of 3 seconds (configurable) for initial surges which are harmful to any other device.
Why should you consider using OVCD before your equipment?
USP:
Now you can install your equipment in the worst electrical conditions without being bothered about service calls.
Cost to company if your product breaks down.
| Man power cost | Rs 800 | Travelling and per day costof service person |
| Production down time | Rs 1000 | Could cost upward dependingthe type of machine |
| Part replacement | Rs 500 | Could cost upward |
| Equipment decay | Yes | Reduction of life of equipment |
| Goodwill lost | Yes | Incalculable |
| Customer’s loss | Yes | Significant |
| Disturbing to business focus | Yes | Significant( both to customersand vendor) |
| Replacement of product | Product cost | Capital Loss |

Features
Optional features
OVCD is connected at before the equipment in use.
Incoming current will first pass through OVCD then into the equipment. OVCD continuously monitors the line voltage.
Whenever the voltage is above or below the set voltage limits the OVCD simply cuts the voltage to the equipment thereby saving it from the line disturbance. It reacts within fraction of second to the disturbance. OVCD will withstand the voltage even as high as 440 Volts.It however does not stabilize the voltage as in the case of other devices in the same category like Stabilizer, CVTs.
When the voltage returns to normal , the OVCD resumes the supply to the equipment with short power-on delay of 3 seconds(configurable). This feature is called the Smart Start. It prevents the initial harmful transient that may damage the Equipment.
How is OVCD better than other power conditioning / protection products?
