When it comes to safeguarding your electrical systems, having a reliable Surge Protection Device (SPD) is crucial for both industrial and commercial settings. This particular SPD offers robust protection with its Type 1 classification, ensuring high-performance defense against transient overvoltages typically caused by lightning strikes or switching operations.
Operating at a rated voltage of 36 VDC, this device effectively manages surges with a rated current capacity of 10 kA per line and an impressive total of 20 kA. Its lightning impulse current rating stands at 2.5 kA per line, making it a formidable choice for environments prone to electrical disturbances.
Measuring just 12 mm in width, 45 mm in height, and 51 mm in depth, this compact SPD integrates seamlessly into various setups without occupying excessive space. The device's yellow polyamide construction not only provides durability but also ensures visibility within complex installations.
The surge protector boasts an IP20 degree of protection, indicating that it's well-suited for indoor applications where solid object ingress is a concern but moisture exposure is minimal. It operates efficiently across a wide temperature range from -40 to 80 degrees Celsius, accommodating diverse environmental conditions typical in Australia.
Designed to meet IEC 61643-21 and EN 61643-21 standards and approvals, this SPD aligns with international safety benchmarks ensuring reliability and peace of mind when integrated into your systems. Moreover, the voltage protection levels are noteworthy: <=240V (L-L) for In D1), <=650V (Line-PG) for In D1), <=150V (L-L) at 1 kV/us C3), and <=600V (Line-PG) at 1 kV/us C3). These specifications indicate the device's capability to limit residual voltages effectively during surge events.
Weighing merely 21 grams, its lightweight nature adds ease during installation while maintaining structural integrity once mounted. It's particularly suitable for use with Blitzductor XT systems—an added advantage if you're already utilizing these components within your infrastructure.
In summary, this surge protection device delivers reliable performance tailored for demanding industrial applications where equipment safety is paramount. Whether you're upgrading existing systems or planning new installations, its blend of technical prowess and practical design makes it an ideal choice to ensure operational continuity amidst unpredictable power fluctuations.
