Description
xThe Citel DS240S-280DC is a Type 2 Surge Protective Device (SPD) specifically designed for DC and photovoltaic (PV) networks with a nominal voltage of 280VDC. Engineered to provide reliable protection against transient overvoltages, this SPD ensures the longevity and safety of critical DC/PV systems. Its advanced design and robust construction make it an ideal choice for a variety of applications, from residential solar installations to large-scale commercial photovoltaic arrays.
Features:
- Surge Protection: Effective defence against transient overvoltages in DC and PV networks.
- Nominal Discharge Current (In): 20kA (8/20µs) for strong performance during surge events.
- Maximum Discharge Current (Imax): 40kA (8/20µs) for handling high surge capacities.
- Voltage Protection Level (Up): ≤ 1.4kV, ensuring minimal residual voltage to protect connected equipment.
- Response Time: < 25ns, providing rapid action to mitigate voltage spikes.
- Operating Temperature Range: -40°C to +85°C, suitable for various climatic conditions.
- Enclosure Material: Thermoplastic, UL94-V0 flame retardant for enhanced safety.
- Connection Type: Pluggable module for easy installation, maintenance, and replacement.
- Visual Fault Indicator: Clear status indication for straightforward monitoring and maintenance.
- Standards Compliance: Meets IEC 61643-31 and UL 1449 4th edition standards, ensuring high-quality and reliable performance.
These features combine to make the Citel DS240S-280DC SPD a reliable and efficient solution for protecting photovoltaic systems and other DC applications from damaging transient overvoltages.
