Finder 7P.24.8.275.K110 Tipo 2 protector contra sobretensiones para instalaciones fotovoltaicas, 3 polos, 1100 V DC, 20 kA (8/20 µs), carril DIN

Photovoltaic installations are exposed to transient overvoltages caused by lightning strikes or switching operations. The Finder 7P.24.8.275.K110 is a Type 2 surge protective device (SPD) engineered to protect the DC side of PV systems up to 1100 V DC. It limits voltage spikes to a safe level, preventing damage to inverters and other sensitive components.

Who is it for

This SPD is intended for solar installers and electrical contractors who need reliable protection for large-scale PV arrays, especially those with long DC cable runs or in areas with high lightning activity. It is suitable for use in combiner boxes and inverter inputs.

Tips

Install the SPD as close as possible to the inverter or the equipment to be protected, keeping lead lengths short to minimize let-through voltage. For optimal protection, combine with Type 1 SPDs at the main distribution board if the building has external lightning protection.
