Specifications
Description:

Surge diverter - single-phase, threemode.

Nominal voltage: 220 / 230 / 240V AC
Other voltages are available on request.

Pow er Line Surge Protection

Novaris Technologies single-phase surge diverters
provide surge diversion for single-phase power circuits.
The units are designed for mounting at main power
switchboards and distribution boards in category C
locations.
The SD1-xxDIN/3 provides all mode protection.
Protection is provided between active and neutral,
active and earth plus neutral and earth. This means the
SD1-xxDIN/3 can be used at main and distribution
boards in all TN distribution systems including MEN
and TT systems.
If an external alarm funtion is required specify the
SD1-xxDIN/3A.

In a systems design these surge diverters would be

utilised upstream of power surge filters for protection
of high sensitivity loads.
O p erat io n
Novaris Technologies single phase all mode surge
diverters comprise 40kA metal oxide varistor elements
and high-energy gas filled arrestors in rugged metal
enclosures with DIN43880 compliant dimensions.
They feature overcurrent fusing and thermal overload
indication. The green LED indicator shows power and
normal. MOV failure due to overcurrent or thermal
overload will extinguish the LED and activate the
external alarm where fitted. Note that in the event of a
thermal overload the MOV is not disconnected from
the circuit and may still provide a level of protection.
