Mains transient supression

[Simon]

Hello

I'm looking for some help with Mains transient suppression for an electronic
device consuming about 20W. The device is operated in a heavy industrial
environment.

I have spent hours and hours trolling the net looking for typical examples
of robust transient supression for 230vac mains supply.
I see snippets of circuits with MOVs and Gas Distarge Tubes but I am
confused and I can find no typical values for an industrial environment.

Can anyone help. All suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Regards
Simon
