New surge voltage protection devices
Weidmüller’s new lightning and surge protection VPU series fulfils requirements for protection levels 1, 2 and 3 for power networks. This means full compliance with the current IEC 61643-11 and the future EN 61643-11 standard being introduced in 2013.
Weidmüller’s new lightning and surge protection VPU series fulfils requirements for protection levels 1, 2 and 3 for power networks. This means full compliance with the current IEC 61643-11 and the future EN 61643-11 standard being introduced in 2013.
Due to its conformity with older standards, users can minimise the iterative steps for planning in accordance with the application standard IEC61643-12 and the associated re-designs.
Each VPU module can be positioned in the cabinet in order to achieve the shortest route to lightning protection equipotential thanks to its 180° rotation. A new mounting rail clip also makes installation quicker and easier.
