Phoenix Contact VAL-MS…DC-PV surge arresters

Wednesday, 15 October, 2014 | Supplied by: Phoenix Contact Pty Ltd


The VAL-MS…DC-PV surge arresters are short-circuit proof up to 1000 A DC. Due to optimisations in the manufacturing process, the values for short-circuit current rating ISCPV could be increased from 300 to 1000 A.

This affects Type 1 and 2 lightning/surge arresters, as well as just Type 2 surge arresters with 1000 V DC and 600 V DC nominal voltage. All of the arrester types named have been certified by the independent DEKRA test laboratory according to EN 50539-11 and have been awarded the KEMA test mark.

The photovoltaic arresters can be easily replaced by plug-in versions. Coding from plugs and base elements prevents incorrect plugging in the case of servicing. Integrated rotating latches offer reliable contact even at high loads. With remote indication contacts on the base elements, maintenance can therefore be planned more efficiently.
