Important note

Product information
Mode 2: State where the voltage-limiting part of the SPD was short-circuited due to a very low impedance within the SPD. The line is inoperable, but the measuring equipment is still protected by means of a short-circuit.

Tender specification sheets

Long specification
Surge protection plug for use in connection with the base element VSPC BASE 2SL FG for two wires with a common ground. Two-stage protection circuit in the plug consisting of coarse protection, decoupling resistors and fine protection between the signal wires and the signal ground/ground/earth. Suitable for intrinsically safe powered signal cables EX ia. Mechanical identification of the plug to the base element according to the switching type and rated voltage. Protected plug with coding pin and counter-profile for the base element. Optical identification of the protected plug based on the type of protected switching and the voltage level. It is possible to mark the plug.
