DEHN DEHNcord Protector contra sobretensiones tipo 2 bipolar 900430

Voltage protection level ≤ 1.2 kV with 10 kA max discharge current — the DEHNcord 900430 is a Type 2 surge arrester for 230 V AC single-phase systems. This 2-pole unit is pre-wired with 0.5 m H07RN-F 3G1.5 mm² cables for in-line installation, with IP65 protection and thermal disconnect status indication.

Overview

The DEHNcord 900430 is a varistor-based surge protective device (SPD) designed to protect electrical equipment from transient overvoltages. It is intended for use in low-voltage power distribution systems, particularly in applications where equipment is connected via a cable and requires local protection. The device is suitable for both indoor and outdoor use due to its IP65-rated UV-resistant thermoplastic housing.

What stands out

• Compact in-line design with pre-wired connection cables for easy installation.
• Thermal disconnect with visual status indication for quick maintenance checks.
• High short-circuit withstand capability of 25 kA with a 32 A gG fuse.
• Wide operating temperature range from -40 °C to +80 °C.
