The easy, economical way to
safeguard yourself when working
with electricity.
PDL Elimit is specifically designed to minimise the risk
of a fatal electric shock when working with electricity
around the home or on the building site. It is an
electronic sensing device which constantly monitors the
balance of current flow to ensure that, should even a
minute leakage occur, the PDL Elimit will switch off the
power in less than the time of a single heartbeat. That
could mean the difference between life and death.
The PDL Elimit can save your life!
The body is normally driven by minute electrical signals
which control muscles and heart. If an electrical current from
the mains passes through the body, normal body function
will be disrupted. The effect of this disruption, called
ventricular fibrillation, depends on the severity of the shock
and the length of time the person is subjected to it.
The PDL Elimit provides protection by switching the current
off immediately. When electrical leakage to earth exceeds as
little as 10mA (10 thousandths of one Amp) or 30mA
(30 thousandths of one Amp), the PDL Elimit will switch off
the current within 30 milliseconds (30 thousandths of a
second). Thats less than the time it takes for a single
heartbeat, and could mean the difference between life and
death. PDLs commitment to research and development has
ensured that Elimit has been engineered to meet the latest
international standards in RCD technology.
In the workshop and outdoors, many factors, such as
dampness, faulty wiring, frayed cords and other hazards, can
contribute to a potentially lethal situation when using power
tools and extension leads, electric barbeques, electric
lawnmowers, temporary party lighting, pool vacuums, filters,
spas, pool lights and any other outdoor electrical equipment.
PDL Elimit offers personal protection against electrocution
from live to earth faults.
Theres no doubt that, from time to time, we are all
subconsciously careless around electricity. PDL Elimit is an
insurance against this. However, it must be pointed out that
RCD devices do not protect against all causes of electric
shock such as those caused by contracting both Live and
Neutral of the electrical circuit its use should not be taken
as a substitute for safe electrical practices or for electrical
maintenance.
PDL ELIMIT

When properly connected, an electrical current flows through the
live wire (fig.1) on its way to the appliance and returns via the
neutral wire (fig.2).
If, for some reason, the current leaks (through dampness, frayed
wire, faulty connection etc.), it will take the most direct path to earth
often through a persons body. If that power is not cut off instantly,
there is a strong possibility that person will die.
The path taken by the current also contributes to the shocks
severity. A shock which flows from the hand through the arms and
chest will affect both breathing and heartbeat.
The time that a person is exposed to the shock is the greatest factor
in the severity of the accident. A PDL Powerguard cuts off the power
in 30 thousandths of a second thats less than the time of a
single heartbeat!
A leakage as little as 10mA (10 thousandths of one Amp) or 30mA
(30 thousandths of one Amp) is sufficient to trip the PDL Powerguard
and cut off the power to the appliance thats a minute amount of
current when you consider that many appliances use as much as
10 Amps.
