A Powerful Range Of Surge Protection Products
Surge protection is necessary: Surge protection in low-voltage systems is becoming increasingly important due to the increasing number of losses. Direct lightning strikes can not only cause losses due to surge overvoltages, but can also lead to large-scale damage. Surge overvoltages due to lightning strikes are more common, causing serious damage to electronic equipment and systems within a range of up to two kilometers. In order to prevent personal injury or property damage due to surge overvoltages, all new buildings or extensions as well as all new electronic facilities have been required to be surge protected in accordance with the mandatory provisions of VDE 0100-443 since October 2016.
With the birth of the new "series" of surge protective devices, 3 new surge protective device series have been added, which can effectively protect buildings and systems with various requirements according to the new VDE 0100-443 and E VDE NAR 4100. The surge protective devices MCF Compact and the 1+2 product V50 as well as the 2-level product V20 effectively protect against surge overvoltages caused by lightning and switching operations, which can permanently damage electronic equipment or data cables. The most advanced semiconductor and spark discharge technology achieves high lightning discharge performance. Due to the modular structure of V50 and V20 lightning arresters, the products can be realized in various combinations from 1P to 4P. With the help of the new generation of surge protectors, huge losses caused by data loss or production downtime can be avoided. The quality of the new products is VDE certified by external testing agencies according to EN 61643-11. All products have a 5-year warranty.
