Product catalog summary
Introduction
New surge protection devices have been introduced for photovoltaic (PV) applications, suitable for both 1,000 V and 1,500 V DC systems. These devices include Type 1+2 and Type 2 combination arrestors designed for lightning and surge protection.

Specifications
  • Compliance: Devices comply with IEC 60364-7-712 (VDE 0100-712) and EN 50539-11 product norm.
  • Type 1+2: Provides lightning protection equipotential bonding according to IEC 62305 (VDE 0185-305) with a discharge capacity of 12.5 kA (10/350) and 40 kA (8/20).
  • Type 2: Offers surge protection with a discharge capacity of 20 kA per pole, up to 40 kA (8/20).
  • Design: Features an error-resistant Y circuit with a status display. The FS variant includes a potential-free changeover contact for remote signalling.

Technical Details
  • Type 1+2 Combination Arrestor: Available for 1,000 V DC and 1,500 V DC systems, with options for remote signalling.
  • Type 2 Surge Protection: Specifically for 1,500 V DC systems, also available with remote signalling capabilities.

Applications
These devices are intended for use in PV systems to provide both lightning current and surge protection.
