Ametherm Acquires SURGE-GARD™ Inrush Current Limiter Products From Measurement Specialties

Ametherm  announced that it has acquired the SURGE-GARD™ inrush current limiter product line, formerly manufactured by RTI Electronics, from Measurement Specialties Inc. (NASDAQ: MEAS), a global designer and manufacturer of sensors and sensor-based systems. The acquisition will also include certain NTC thermistor products.

“Since their introduction, SURGE-GARD products have won a reputation for quality and reliability, and they are used in many applications that require limiting inrush current when power is applied to a system,” said Eric Rauch, president and CEO of Ametherm. “The SURGE-GARD line makes an important addition to Ametherm’s existing families of inrush current limiters and will help to broaden the applications we can address.”

Ametherm’s products include inrush current limiters and sensing thermistors used in a very wide range of applications. In business since 1994, the company’s devices are among some of the highest rated in the industry and provide the widest range of inrush current protection available.

Mastering High Voltage: The Importance of Accurate Test Equipment

This whitepaper underscores that precise calibration of high-voltage test gear — especially when measuring 1 kV–150 kV systems — is essential for safety, reliability, and regulatory compliance. It details measurement techniques (voltage dividers, step-down transformers, etc.), the impact of environmental and connection factors on accuracy, and why traceable calibration (e.g. to NIST / A2LA) is a must to ensure consistent, reliable results.
