Type 1+2+3 AC surge protector - Single phase

DS252VG-120/G
Part Number 3960
DS252VG-120/G
  • Type 1+2+3 unipolar surge protector
  • 25 kA on 10/350µs impulse
  • Low voltage Up
  • Internal disconnection, status indicator and remote signaling
  • Optimized to TOV
  • IEC 61643-11 and UL1449 ed.5 compliance

The products of the range DS250VG is an extreme duty Type 1+2+3 AC surge protector device designed to protect at the entrance of the electrical installation. This SPD is particularly useful in a high lightning density area where the risk of heavy surge current or even direct strike is high (eg: buildings equipped with lightning rods). The `Spark gap + Varistor` technology allows a very low level of protection and an absence of following current. The DS250VG is mounted on a DIN Rail and has a double connection for the active conductor, which allows an optimized connection to the network.
