<p>When it comes to safeguarding your photovoltaic (PV) systems, selecting a reliable surge protection device (SPD) is crucial. This SPD offers robust protection with its Type 2, Class II classification, ensuring that your systems are shielded from transient overvoltages.</p><p>Designed for industrial and commercial applications, this SPD features a rated current of 40 kA between Line-Neutral (L-N) and Neutral-Protective Earth (N-PE). It effectively handles surges while maintaining an impressive voltage protection level of less than or equal to 4 kV. In the event of a short circuit, it can manage up to 10 kA, providing peace of mind in high-stress environments.</p><p>The device&#39;s physical specifications are tailored for ease of installation and integration into existing setups. It mounts effortlessly onto a standard 35 mm DIN rail, making it compatible with most electrical panels. Measuring at 54 mm in width, 90 mm in height, and 66 mm in depth, its compact design ensures space efficiency without compromising on performance.</p><p>Constructed from durable thermoplastic material, this SPD boasts an IP20 degree of protection. While it&#39;s not suitable for outdoor use without additional enclosure protection due to its IP rating, it performs exceptionally well within indoor environments where dust ingress is minimal.</p><p>This device operates reliably across a wide temperature range from -40&#176;C to +80&#176;C, making it suitable for various climatic conditions encountered throughout Australia. Its response time is impressively quick at less than or equal to 25 nanoseconds—critical for mitigating damage during sudden voltage spikes.</p><p>The SPD supports multiple conductor types: solid/flexible conductors up to 1.5 sq-mm cross-section; stranded conductors up to 35 sq-mm; and flexible conductors up to 25 sq-mm. This versatility ensures compatibility with diverse wiring configurations found within PV systems.</p><p>Certified by UL and KEMA standards and approvals—renowned benchmarks in safety and reliability—you can trust this SPD&#39;s performance under demanding conditions.</p><p>Weighing just 322 grams makes handling straightforward during installation or maintenance checks—a practical feature appreciated by technicians aiming for efficiency without sacrificing safety standards on site operations involving PV installations or similar applications requiring dependable surge management solutions.</p>
