Maintenance Manual
Tranquell™Surge Protective Device (SPD)
UL Recognized DIN Rail Mount
• This equipment must be
installed and serviced only by qualified
electrical personnel in accordance with
national and local electrical codes.
• Turn off all power supplying this equipment
before working on equipment.
• Always use a properly rated voltage-sensing
device to confirm power is off.
• Replace all devices, doors and covers before
restoring power to this equipment.
• Do not apply petroleum-based products to
nonmetallic parts.
Improper installation or misapplication of these devices
may result in serious injury to the installer and/or
damage to electrical system or related equipment.
Protective eye wear and clothing should be worn
whenever working around hazardous voltages.
Failure to follow these instructions could result in
serious injury or death.
• Do not attempt to open or
tamper the Tranquell
™
device
in any way as this may compromise performance and
will void the warranty.
• Megger and hi-potential tests may damage
the device. Disconnect all power supplying the
equipment and isolate the Tranquell
™
device
before testing.
• Install for point-of-use Tranquell
™
DIN Rail,
tested for Type 2 applications
• Prior to installation, confirm that the Tranquell
™
SPD is rated for the correct voltage, current
and frequency equivalent to the application.
• Tranquell
™
DIN Rail must be installed within
an enclosure or control cabinet.
• Operating and storage temperature of this device
must be within -13°F to 140°F (-25°C and +60°C).
DANGER
CAUTION
Hazard of Electric Shock,
Burn or Explosion
1. MOUNTING
Tranquell
™
SPD DIN Rail is designed to
mount onto a 35mm DIN rail or top-hat rail
(standard EN 50022, BS 5584) set in the
horizontal position. To install, first hook the
line side over a 35mm DIN rail and then push in
the load side until the spring loaded mounting
clip “clicks” onto the rail (See Figure 1).

AUXILIARY MICROSWITCH INSTALLATION
Remote signaling is available on Tranquell
™
SPD DIN Rail products. #30 AWG to #16 AWG
(.051 mm
2
- 1.31 mm2) signal wire may be used. Maximum torque rating for the terminal
screw is 1.8 in.-lb. (0.113 N-m). The maximum continuous current rating for the microswitch contact is 3 amps. If applicable, install signal wiring as shown in Figure 3.

2. REPLACEMENT/REMOVAL
Replace the module if the RED indicator tab (See Figure 2) is visible
on any of the multiple pole units. To remove: (1) verify that you have the correct replacement
module; (2) disconnect power; (3) pull the pluggable module from the base; (4) push a new
pluggable module into the base. You will hear a “click”, indicating that the module is set
in place (See Figure 1). An insertion “key” built into the unit will help ensure that the module
has been correctly selected.
CAUTION: Use of excessive force, during insertion, can result
in damage to the module or the base.

NOTE: The Tranquell
™
DIN Rail SPD has been tested for safe operation without any
additional overcurrent protection, when correctly matched to the power system
parameters. A gG 160 Amp NH Fuse may be chosen to meet other requirements in
an
IEC application. Consult local codes and standards for appropriate fuse sizing.

4. WIRE INSTALLATION
#14
AWG to #6 AWG (2.08 mm
2
- 13.3 mm2), 60/75°C Copper
wire shall be used on phase and Neutral/
PE terminals.
Maximum torque to be applied to terminal screws is
14.75 in.-lb. (2.0 N-m). Strip back wire insulation 1/4" (6 mm).
Interconnecting wire should be kept at minimum length. Wire
bending radius should be >4" (100 mm). Do not loop or twist
interconnecting wire. Failure to meet these requirements may
result in higher let-through voltages.
Tranquell
™
SPD is normally installed in parallel with the load or
the electrical system wiring.
Determine electrical voltage configuration and proper modes
of protection and install wiring as shown in Figure 4.
