Arc Suppression Technologies

Today, it is well known that classical arc or spark suppression does not deliver on promised results, and industry has grown to accept this problem.Advances in component technology have enabled Arc Suppression Technologies to introduce a set of innovative patented products that at the instant of arc formation actively suppress contact arcs and offer unprecedented increases in contactor operating life, reliability, and safety. Patented and UL Certified, NOsparc® arc suppressors protect, clean, and restore the contact points of relays and contactors, extending contact life to the mechanical life of the relay or contactor. This yields enormous cost reductions in replacement contactors, scheduled maintenance, and unscheduled downtime. In addition, NOsparc products protect motors from single-phasing by preventing failure of the contacts that run these motors. Never before has there been an off-the-shelf solution to contact arcing that operates across a broad range of AC and DC power applications. Already proven to reduce costs in HVACR systems in grocery stores and mass merchandisers, NOsparc products also increase the safety of commuter rail systems, and reduce costs and increase productivity in precision manufacturing. Arc Suppression Technologies is a Minnesota (USA) limited liability company that is solving a problem that has plagued the electricity industry for more than a century.
