Phoenix Contact FLT-SEC-ZP2-3C-255/12.5 Protector combinado tipo 1/2, trifásico + N-PE, 255 V AC, carril DIN 1168946

The Phoenix Contact FLT-SEC-ZP2-3C-255/12.5 is a combined lightning and surge arrester classified as Type 1/2 according to IEC and EN standards. It is engineered for three-phase power systems with a nominal voltage of 230/400 V AC and a maximum continuous operating voltage of 255 V AC. This model stands out with its high discharge capacity: a lightning impulse current of 12.5 kA per pole (10/350 µs) and a total of 50 kA, plus a nominal discharge current of 20 kA per pole (8/20 µs). The voltage protection level is ≤ 1.5 kV, and response time is ≤ 100 ns. Designed for DIN rail mounting, it features screw connections and an optical mechanical status indicator. The unit has 4 positions and operates within -40 °C to 80 °C.
