Product Information:
Lightning current arrester with coarse and fine surge protection for the protection of 2 core signalling lines.
Features:
- Pluggable module
- Line separated from protective earth via GDT
- Coupling resistance (R-resistance)
Benefits: Can be installed at any entry into the building as well as close to protected devices. Coarse and fine surge protection (core-core) in differential mode and coarse surge protection in common mode (line-PE).
Standards: EN 61643-21 (Surge Protection Devices).
Application: Install at the boundary of LPZ0 and LPZ1 zones at the line entry into the building.
More Information:
Where low voltage, data and telecom lines enter and exit the building, they must also be included in the Lightning Protection System.
A lightning surge protection device prevents damage to electrical and electronic equipment from transient over-voltage events by blocking or redirecting surge current to the ground instead of passing through the equipment.
These include:
- Electromagnetic shielding
- Telephone lines
- Data communication lines
- Instrumentation, control, signalling lines
- Coaxial lines for CCTV, TV, & antenna cables
Field based electronic equipment also need to be protected.
