Ensure interference-free signal transmission in measurement and control technology with this surge protector from Phoenix Contact. It helps to prevent electronic components from being damaged by voltage spikes. You can mount this device directly onto a DIN rail for simple and fast installation.
As its robust PBT housing resists abrasion and wear, this is a long-lasting option. The material also withstands high temperatures, so the unit is safe to use in operating conditions ranging from -40°C to +80°C. Push-in connectors make hooking up electrical wires easy and tool-free.
A device like this is suitable for the protection of speed, pressure and flow sensors. You can also use it to safeguard the input and output of controllers. So you can be sure of safety, it's UL94V-0 rated, which means the surge protector is self-extinguishing in the event of a fire.

• Rapid response time of ≤1ns for instant grounding of voltage surges
• Compact dimensions of 105.8 (height) x 6.2 (width) x 69.5mm (depth) maximises packing efficiency in a control cabinet
• IP20 rating indicates it's protected against touch and objects greater than 12mm in size

Voltage surges, often referred to as spikes or transients are typically caused by switching of fluorescent lights, fuses blowing or nearby lightning activity. The worst voltage spikes are usually caused by lightning strikes and can reach up to 6000V, with current surges of over 3000A. The maximum size of the let-through voltage and current inrush depends on the location within the building's wiring system. BS7671: 2011 Amendment 1 Sections 443 and 534 cover risk assessment and provides guidance on protection of electronic equipment for installation engineers to follow. The fullest information on lightning and surge protection comes from the BSEN 62305 series of standards.
