Surge protective device iPFK40-T2-1 1-pole Type2 40 kA A9L15686

Surge protection for electrical installations

The iPFK40-T2-1 surge arrester is a key element protecting electrical installations from the effects of surges, both induced by lightning strikes and conducted through the network. The device is designed for mounting on a TH-35 mm DIN rail and features a compact design – it occupies only 1 module. Its task is to protect electrical devices from damage caused by sudden voltage increases, which translates to increased reliability and safety of the entire system.

Characteristics and application

This arrester is classified as Type 2, which means it provides indirect surge protection. It is an ideal solution for residential, commercial and industrial buildings where additional protection is required after basic protection (e.g. by a Type 1 arrester). Designed for use with TN-C and TT network systems. Optical signaling informs about the operation of the device, making it easier to identify potential surge problems. The maximum discharge current of 40 kA guarantees effective protection even in the event of strong pulses.

Key features and benefits

• Effective protection: Rated discharge current of 40 kA provides a high level of protection against surges.
• Compact dimensions: Occupies only 1 module on the DIN rail, making it easy to install even in crowded distribution boards.
• Versatility: Designed for TN-C and TT network systems, increasing its range of applications.
• Status indicator: Optical indication of operation allows for quick identification of the need for replacement or control of the device.
• Safety: Compliance with safety standards ensures reliable operation and minimizes the risk of failure.
• Mounting: Easy mounting on a standard TH-35 mm DIN rail – saving time during installation.
• Wires: Possibility of connecting wires with a cross-section of up to 25 mm² (solid/stranded) and 16 mm² (flexible).
• Rated voltage: Adapted to work in networks with a rated voltage of 230 V AC and a maximum continuous operating AC voltage of 340 V.

The rated discharge current (8/20) is 15 kA, and the maximum discharge current (8/20) reaches 40 kA. The rated AC voltage is 230 V, with a maximum continuous operating AC voltage of 340 V. The L-N protection level is 1.5 kV, and the device is classified as Type 2.

The iPFK40-T2-1 arrester is a solid and reliable solution for every installer and end user looking for effective protection against the effects of surges in the electrical installation. Its easy installation and high efficiency make it an ideal choice for both new and modernized installations.
