Caratteristiche del prodotto & Scenari applicativi
- Caratteristiche del prodotto
Integrated Protection: T1+T2 composite protection eliminates the need for additional graded SPDs, saving space and cost.
Design collegabile: The module supports hot plugging and unplugging under live conditions, enabling quick replacement in case of failure without affecting the power supply of the main circuit.
Indicazione visiva dello stato: Built-in remote indication contact can be connected to the monitoring system to feed back the operating status of the SPD in real time, facilitating operation and maintenance.
Sicuro e affidabile: Built-in thermal trip and overcurrent protection prevent short-circuit risks caused by SPD faults.
- Scenari applicativi
It is applicable to the incoming ends of three-phase distribution systems or the front ends of important equipment in industrial plants, edifici commerciali, centri dati, ecc., protecting electrical equipment from damage caused by direct lightning strikes, induced lightning, and operating overvoltage.
Installazione chiave & Wiring Points
- Preparazione dell'installazione
Confirm the installation position on a 35mm standard DIN rail, reserve sufficient heat dissipation space, and avoid close proximity to heating elements.
Verify the matching of system voltage, frequency and SPD parameters; Uc shall be higher than the maximum operating voltage of the system.
- Specifiche di cablaggio
The incoming end is connected to the power supply side, and the outgoing end to the load side; L1, L2 and L3 correspond to the three-phase live wires, and PE shall be reliably earthed.
The wire diameter of the connecting conductor shall be no less than 16mm² copper core wire, and the length shall be as short as possible (≤50 cm) to reduce the impact of wire resistance on protection performance.
The remote indication contact is connected to the monitoring circuit, with the rated current not exceeding AC 12 6A/240V and DC 12 2A/48V.
- Note
It shall be used in conjunction with a backup protection circuit breaker; the rated current of the circuit breaker is recommended to be 16A 32A to avoid selective tripping caused by SPD faults.
Risoluzione dei problemi & Manutenzione
| Fenomeno di guasto | Possibile causa | Metodo di risoluzione dei problemi |
| Remote indication contact actuation | SPD module damage | Replace the iPRF1 12.5r 3P module after power off |
| Severe heating of SPD | Loose wiring or poor contact | Check the wiring terminals, retighten them to ensure reliable connection |
| Unable to plug or unplug the module | Damaged DIN rail buckle | Replace the DIN rail or repair the buckle; avoid forced plugging/unplugging to prevent module damage |
