Surge protection device 24V type VF24-AC/DC 5097607

Surge protection for AC and DC installations

This Type 3 surge protector, designated VF24-AC/DC, is a key element in protecting electrical installations from the effects of voltage surges. Designed for both alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC) circuits, it provides effective protection for connected devices. Its versatility makes it suitable for a wide range of installations – from domestic to industrial.

This surge protector is characterized by its high efficiency, confirmed by parameters such as the ability to discharge currents up to 0.7 kA (L-N) and 2 kA (L+N-PE). This ensures protection against sudden voltage spikes that can damage sensitive electronic components. Additionally, optical indication of operation facilitates quick identification of a faulty surge protector and the need for its replacement.

Installation and practical application

The surge protector is mounted on a standard DIN TH-35 mm mounting rail, which greatly simplifies the installation process for both professionals and people with basic electrical knowledge. The compact dimensions of the housing (17.5 mm wide) allow for installation in tight switchboards without space problems. Designed to operate at a rated voltage of 24V AC/DC and a rated current of 20A, it is ideal for protecting circuits powering electronic devices with similar parameters. The possibility of connecting wires with a cross-section of up to 2.5 mm² ensures compatibility with most standard electrical installations.

The VF24-AC/DC surge protector finds application wherever there is a risk of overvoltage – in residential buildings, offices, production halls or public utility facilities. It is particularly recommended for protecting control systems, automation and telecommunications and IT equipment. Its construction based on a Y-connection provides optimal protection against interference and overvoltages in various electrical network configurations. A protection level of 0.13 kV further increases the safety of the installation and connected devices.
