(1) Tested value acc. IEC 60099-4.

(2) These values exceed IEC requirements. For installations in higher ambient temperatures, please contact the manufacturer.
(3) This value exceeds IEC requirements. For installations in higher altitudes, please contact the manufacturer.

Application
Protection of medium voltage AC networks against both, multiple atmospheric and switching overvoltages as well as Very Fast
Transients (VFT). Suitable for the protection of transformers, cables, and railway vehicles. Can be used mechanically as support
insulator or as suspension insulator in case of application as line arrester. For indoor and outdoor installation.

Advantages
-

Low residual voltage

Long protection distance
High energy input capacity
Stable U-I characteristics even after multiple strokes
Proof against ageing
Explosion and shatter-resistant design

Pollution resistant and UV-stable

Housing resistant to rough handling
Maintenance free
Stable against shock and vibration
High mechanical resistance

Temporary overvoltage capability (TOV) - Power frequency versus time characteristic

-

During 1 second (a: 1.362 x Uc or b: 1.317 x Uc)

During 3 seconds (a: 1.337 x Uc or b: 1.287 x Uc)
During 10 seconds (a: 1.310 x Uc or b: 1.256 x Uc)
a: value tested with a sample that has not been prestressed by any energy input.
b: value tetsted with a sample that has been prestressed with a prior energy input according to the operating duty test
The values have been determined with a test sample preheated at 60 degrees Celsius according to IEC 60099-4 and refer to
an ambient temperature up to 45 degrees Celsius.
