Power Surge Protector, AC Network 120/208Y, Connection Mode L/G, N/G, No. of Poles 2, Max. Continuous Operating Voltage (MCOV) (Uc) [V AC] 150

DIN Rail AC Power Surge Protector 4983-DS • Compact modular design • Visual fault indicator linked to internal thermal disconnect • A controlled end-life occurrence will trigger SPD replacement indicator • Equipped standard with safety remote signaling AC network connection • Brief voltage spikes and surges can be caused by a wide range of factors originating from both within and outside of a production facility. • Whatever their source, these transients can damage electronic equipment, requiring expensive replacement and production delays. • Bulletin 4983-DS surge protectors use metal oxide varistor (MOV) technology. • Unlike most MOVbased surge protection, these devices are larger, replaceable and designed for DIN Rail mounting in an electrical environment. • The MOV technology is a high impedance component (high resistance device) • When a surge occurs, the MOV changes to a low impedance (resistance) device and diverts surges away from the load and directs it to ground. • MOVs have high energy capability and consistent clamping performance. • Because MOV-based surge protectors are sacrificial – they break down every time they divert surges away from a load – 4983-DS protectors can be replaced after an event. Many electronic components have some form of built-in protection and are not userreplaceable
