INSTALLATION
This Surge Protective Device (SPD) is a high performance device, designed to provide protection
for sensitive electronic loads where the SPD is directly connected to the elctronic device.
Maximum protection will only be achieved if the SPD is properly installed and grounded.
Please read and follow all instructions carefully before beginning install.
NOTICE: This SPD should be installed and grounded, by a licensed contractor, per the applicable
requirements of the NEC. These devices are only to be employed on the communication loop circuits
which have been isolated from the Public Switched Telephone Network.
APPLICATION
Surge suppression for analog, digital, and high speed data circuits all terminating at the same
point of use using RJ45 or BNC interfaces. This device is designed for back plane mount or as
a hinged wall mount bracket. This design allows you to mix and match up to 6 ports per face plate.
This device is intended for indoor use or intended for outdoor use within an enclosure which has been
evaluated for the application.

SURGE MODULE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
Versa Module Series
1. Lay faceplate face down on a flat surface with the ground lug on the left hand side.
2. Select the desired module and its desired positon number (1-6)
3. Remove hardware kit and surge module from plastic bag.
4. Place the silver spacer onto the threaded standoff.
5. Place split (lock) washer on top of silver standoff.
6. Place surge module pc board over threaded standoff with the 4 solder points to the bottom left hand
corner. Make sure the connectors and threaded standoff line up with their perspective holes
and seat properly.
7. Place 2nd split (lock) washer over threaded standoff.
8. Place the hex-nut over the threaded standoff. using a 3/16” hex socket, tork the nut
to 10 Inch Pounds Maximum.
9. Turn the DTK-VM6WM over.
10.Use the circuit identification label supplied with your hardware kit and apply to the front face of your
DTK-VM6WM under that surge module’s corresponding port number.
11. Repeat these steps for each additional surge module or to replace a module that has self sacrificed.
DTK-VMBNC Module Installation:
Follow the same procedure as above, adding the black flat washer and retaining nut to the BNC
connectors where they protrude through the DTK-VM6WM face plate. Fasten the nut until snug.
WIRING INSTRUCTIONS:
Caution
: Measure all voltages to insure applied voltage does not exceed the voltage rating of the
module. Improper installation voids the warranty.
This unit must be connected in series with the field wiring and the equipment to be protected.
1. Connect a #10 AWG minimum gage ground wire to the ground lug on back of face plate and connect
this to an appropriate ground point.
2. Mount this device using your preferred method of install.
3. Connect the incoming wires to the “IN” connector.
4. Connect a minimum CAT5e or coax patch cable from the “OUT” connector to the equipment to be
protected. Make sure this patch cord is a minimum 3’ to allow for the SPD’s reaction time.
Note: Always have one common ground per system to eliminate the possibility of a differential in
ground potentials.
Ground Resistance Rule: Max ground resistance is 25 Ohms, 5 Ohms or less is optimum.
This cannot be an assumed value and must be measured to assure proper grounding.
DTK-RM12FPPLUG Installation/Removal:
1. Press square plug into unused port until it seats completely.
2. To remove plug, tap the plug out from the back side of faceplate until it is freed.
