Surge Protection Made Simple™ for LV Power Applications
UL Type 4 BSP LV Power Series for 48Vac/60Vdc, 75Vac/100Vdc, 120Vac/200Vdc
275Vac/350Vdc, 320Vac/420Vdc, 385Vac/500Vdc, 440Vac/585Vdc and 600Vac/dc LV Systems
Description
The Bussmann UL Type 4 component assembly for use in Type 2 applications
48Vac/60Vdc, 75Vac/100Vdc, 120Vac/200Vdc, 275VAc/350Vdc,
320Vac/420Vdc, 385Vac/500Vdc, 440Vac/585Vdc and 600Vac/dc single
pole, modular surge arresters feature local, easyID™ visual indication and
optional remote contact signaling. The unique module locking system fixes the
protection module to the base part. Modules can be easily replaced without
tools by simply depressing the release buttons. Integrated mechanical coding
between the base and protection module ensures against installing an
incorrect replacement module.
LV Power System Arresters
The features of these single-pole devices are for use as a single device or in
combination with other devices for AC and DC voltage systems.
• Surge arrester according to UL 1449 3rdEdition,
Type 4 Component Assembly for use in Type 2 applications helps meet UL
508A requirements*
• Proven MOV technology for reliable surge protection
• "Thermo Dynamic Control" SPD monitoring device ensures high reliability
against surge events
• Module locking system with module release button make module
replacement easy without tools
• Optional remote signaling of all protection modules make status monitoring
easy and accurate in any monitoring scheme
• Vibration and shock tested according to EN 60068-2 to withstand harsh
environments
Optional Remote Signaling Contact
The remote signaling contact versions have a floating changeover contact for
use as a break or make contact for easy adoption in any monitoring
application.
