Surge protective device type 1+2 (BC) 12.5kA DS60VGPV-1000 C3947

Overvoltage protection in photovoltaic installations and beyond.

The surge arrester type 1+2 (BC) DS60VGPV-1000 is a key element protecting electrical installations, especially those integrated with photovoltaic systems. This device effectively protects against the effects of voltage surges that can occur due to lightning strikes or other disturbances in the network. Its design allows for a quick response and limiting the overvoltage to a safe level, minimizing the risk of damage to connected devices.

This model, with a rated current of 12.5kA, finds application in both residential and commercial buildings. It is particularly important in PV installations, where the sensitive electronics of inverters require solid protection. This arrester provides comprehensive type 1 and 2 (B+C) protection in accordance with IEC 61643-11 standards, which means it can handle both direct lightning strikes (type 1) and transient overvoltages (type 2).

Construction and assembly – for professionals and users

The installation of the surge arrester is simple and intuitive – the device is designed for mounting on a 35 mm DIN rail. Compact dimensions allow for easy adaptation to an existing distribution box. It is important to pay attention to the correct connection of protective conductors to ensure the full effectiveness of the device. This allows installers to quickly and efficiently protect the electrical installation from the effects of overvoltage.

The use of high-quality materials guarantees reliability and long life of the arrester. Optical signaling informs about the operation of the device, which facilitates diagnosing potential problems and a quick response in the event of a failure. The IP20 protection degree provides basic protection against touch and dust.
