<p>For industrial and commercial applications requiring reliable surge protection, this arrester offers a robust solution designed to withstand demanding environments. With its Type 1, Class I SPD classification, it provides essential defense against high-energy transients like direct lightning strikes.</p><p>Operating at a rated voltage of 255 VAC, this arrester is suitable for various electrical systems. Its compact design features dimensions of 73 mm in width, 90 mm in height, and 36 mm in depth, making it ideal for installations where space is limited. The device is mounted on a standard 35 mm DIN rail for easy integration into existing setups.</p><p>Constructed from durable thermoplastic material, the arrester ensures longevity and resilience. It boasts an IP20 degree of protection, safeguarding internal components from accidental contact with fingers or similar objects while maintaining adequate ventilation.</p><p>The arrester&#39;s operational temperature range spans from -40 to 80 degrees Celsius, allowing it to function effectively in diverse climatic conditions without compromising performance. Weighing just 320 grams, it&#39;s lightweight yet sturdy enough for rigorous use.</p><p>One of the standout features is its rapid response time of less than or equal to 100 nanoseconds (ns), ensuring swift action when surges occur. This quick reaction helps minimize potential damage to connected equipment by clamping voltage spikes efficiently.</p><p>In terms of current handling capabilities, the arrester can manage a lightning impulse current up to an impressive 100 kA and has a lightning current carrying capability rated at 100 kArms. These specifications highlight its suitability for high-risk environments prone to severe electrical disturbances.</p><p>The voltage protection level is maintained at or below 1.5 kV which ensures that sensitive devices downstream are protected from overvoltage conditions that could lead to malfunction or failure.</p><p>Versatility in wiring connections is supported with cross-sectional compatibility: accommodating up to 10 sq-mm solid/flexible conductors as well as larger stranded (50 sq-mm) and flexible (35 sq-mm) wires. This adaptability makes installation straightforward across different system configurations.</p><p>Compliance with international standards such as VDE KEMA and UL underscores the product’s quality assurance providing peace of mind regarding safety and reliability during operation within Australian contexts or globally recognized frameworks alike.</p>
