<p>When it comes to safeguarding your electrical installation systems, selecting a reliable Surge Protection Device (SPD) is crucial. This particular SPD offers robust protection and efficiency tailored for demanding industrial and commercial environments.</p><p>Designed with precision, the device operates at a rated voltage of 230 VAC, accommodating a rated current of 5 kA. Its compact dimensions—67 mm in width, 30.3 mm in height, and 19.4 mm in depth—make it an ideal choice for installations where space is at a premium. Weighing just 49 g, this SPD is lightweight yet durable.</p><p>The device’s red thermoplastic casing not only provides aesthetic appeal but also ensures durability under various conditions. With an impressive operational temperature range from -40 to 80 degrees Celsius, it remains reliable in diverse climates typical across Australia.</p><p>In terms of performance, this SPD excels with its rapid response time of less than or equal to 25 ns for line-to-neutral (L-N) connections and up to 100 ns for line/neutral-to-earth (L/N-PE) configurations. This quick response capability ensures minimal disruption during surge events.</p><p>For those concerned about safety standards, the product boasts an IP20 degree of protection which safeguards against solid objects over 12mm while maintaining user safety during operation. The device features two poles and supports a cross-section of wiring up to 1.5 sq-mm.</p><p>Voltage protection levels are commendable: less than or equal to 1.5 kV (L-N), less than or equal to 1 kV (L-N), and less than or equal to 0.85 kV (L-N). These specifications highlight its efficiency in reducing transient overvoltages that can potentially damage sensitive equipment.</p><p>Moreover, the lightning current carrying capability stands strong at an impressive 100 kArms ensuring resilience against severe electrical surges caused by lightning strikes—a common occurrence in certain regions.</p><p>The SPD is classified as Type 2, Class II according to international standards indicating its suitability for protecting electrical installations against indirect lightning strikes and switching surges within buildings equipped with external lightning protection systems.</p><p>Lastly, it has been designed keeping short circuit scenarios in mind; thus it supports a rated short circuit current capacity of up to 1 kA enhancing overall system reliability even under fault conditions.</p>
