Why Choose the Mersen 83020119 Surge Protection Device?

The Mersen 83020119 is a high performance Type 2 surge protection device (SPD) designed to protect low voltage electrical installations from transient overvoltages caused by switching operations, grid disturbances and indirect lightning effects. Part of the Mersen Surge-Trap® Pluggable STPT2 Series, it provides dependable protection for commercial, industrial and automation environments.

The STPT2-40K320V-2PGM is designed for 277 V AC 1Ph+N TT systems and delivers a 40 kA maximum discharge current (Imax) together with a 20 kA nominal discharge current (In). Its 1+1 TT configuration protects both line-to-neutral and neutral-to-earth paths, while the integrated remote indication contact enables monitoring of SPD status from a control panel or alarm circuit.

With a 320 V AC maximum continuous operating voltage (Uc), compact 2 pole, 2 module pluggable construction and DIN rail mounting, the Mersen 83020119 is ideal for protecting distribution boards, switchgear, control panels and sensitive electrical equipment in demanding low voltage installations.
