Product Information:

Coarse and fine surge protection for 2 core telecommunications and signalling networks.

Use to protect RS-485 instrumentation and control lines, electronic security, and fire detection systems.

Features:

  • Screwless terminals
  • Coupling impedance (resistance)
  • Use on systems up to 48 volts

Benefits: Coarse and fine surge protection in differential mode (core-core) and common mode (core-PE).

Standards: EN 61643-21 (Surge Protection Devices).

Application: Install close to equipment for protection of communication interfaces.

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.
