LPI® DLSF Surge Filters

Features
• 3-Stage protection ensures lowest let-through voltage to protected equipment
• Suitable for single phase TT, TN-S and TN-C-S distribution systems
• Impulse discharge current rating of 25 kA + 25 kA 8/20 µs Ph-N
• Provides protection in all modes: L1-L2, L1-GND, L2-GND.
• Designed to withstand fault and over-voltage conditions as per IEC 61643
• Non-saturating inductors – dv/dt of the incoming surge reduced by up to 100
times
• Internal thermal fusing of protection elements ensures safe end-of-life operation
• Power and Status indication with voltage free alarm contacts
