Spark gap surge arrester BOP-R 0.66/5 (b,z) (BK 2403/1) 1115-015-001-002/000

Protection of lines and devices against overvoltage

This spark-gap surge arrester BOP-R 0.66/5 (b,z) is a key element in protecting low-voltage (LV) installations from both atmospheric (lightning strikes) and switching (e.g., switching large loads) overvoltages. Using a surge arrester minimizes the risk of damage to sensitive equipment and ensures uninterrupted power supply.

Design and application

The BOP-R arrester is designed for mounting on overhead lines. Thanks to the universal clamps – b for bare wires 6-120 mm² and z for uninsulated wires 6-120 mm² – it provides installation flexibility. The ability to adapt the arrester for networks with insulated wires without having to replace it is an additional advantage that simplifies the installation process and reduces costs. This is particularly important when modernizing existing networks.

Advantages and benefits

• Wide mounting possibilities: Thanks to the two types of clamps, the arrester is compatible with different types of wires used in overhead lines.
• Versatility: Can be used in networks with both bare and insulated wires without replacing the device.
• Easy diagnostics: Enables quick fault location, reducing repair time and minimizing network downtime. This saves time for the installer and reduces losses for the end user.
• Overvoltage protection: Effectively protects electrical equipment from the harmful effects of overvoltages, extending its lifespan and reducing the risk of failure.
• Simple installation: The arrester's design makes it easy to install, saving working time.
• Reliability: Product of the Bezpol brand, known for its high-quality electrical components.

This arrester is an ideal solution for both professional installers carrying out new projects and for those responsible for maintaining existing power networks. It provides effective protection of electrical installations against the effects of unforeseen events, minimizing the risk of costly failures and downtime.
