Weidmüller VPU I (Type I), VPU II (Type II) and VPU III General ordering data
(Type III) surge protection products effectively reduce
the interference coupling that can occur due to transient Version Surge voltage arrester, Low voltage, Surge
surge voltages, even significantly below the limits protection, with remote contact, TN-C, UP(L/N-PE)
≤ 1.5 kV
prescribed by insulation co-ordination according to
Order No. 2591170000
EN 60664-3 / DIN VDE 0110-3. This means that the Type VPU AC II 3 R 300/50
whole installation is exposed to fewer malfunctions. GTIN (EAN) 4050118599763
The arresters are co-ordinated using technical means. Qty. 1 pc(s).
This means that decoupling between Types I, II and III
is unnecessary. The arresters are tested according to
product standard IEC 61643-11 / DIN EN 61643-11 and
can be installed in systems according to IEC 61643-12 /
VDE 0675-6-12 and IEC 62305-4 / VDE 0185-4.
This lightning and surge protection device is suited for
installation in power supply systems. Weidmüller offers
different products depending on the particular mains
network type and voltage level. A special Type I and
Type II protective device is even available for photovoltaic
applications.
