Product details
Configured for single-phase TN-S boards, this Surge-Trap STPT2 arrester uses the same 275V cartridge on both poles. It limits switching and induced surges to a 1.3kV protection level, handles a 40kA maximum discharge current, and brings its end-of-life status out on a remote contact.
Key features
- Type 2 / Class II protection for single-phase TN-S distribution boards
- Both poles use the SP2-40K275V cartridge, so one spare covers either position
- Imax of 40kA, In of 20kA and a 1.3kV protection level
- Mechanically coded plug-in cartridges, replaced without disturbing wiring
- Visual and remote end-of-life indicators with a 25ns response time
Typical applications
Fit it at supply distribution panels in commercial and industrial buildings, IT and comms rooms, retail and hospitality units, LED outdoor lighting control panels, water treatment installations and metering positions. It works either as second-stage protection behind a Type 1 device or as the first stage where no external lightning protection system exists.
Compliance
Tested to IEC 61643-11 and EN 61643-11 as a Type 2 / Class II device, with a PA66 CT1 V-0 body and IP20 protection. BS 7671 requires transient overvoltage risk to be assessed and coordinated protection provided where the consequences justify it.
