Why Choose the Mersen 44120400 K1-4PG275 Surge Protection Device?
The Mersen 44120400 K1-4PG275 is a high-performance Type 1+2 Surge Protection Device (SPD) designed to protect three-phase low-voltage electrical installations against lightning strikes and transient overvoltages. Part of the trusted Mersen Surge-Trap® K - K1 Series, this pluggable SPD provides reliable protection for commercial, industrial and infrastructure applications where electrical system continuity is essential.
Designed for installation at the main distribution board, the K1-4PG275 combines high surge current capability with a compact DIN rail mounted design. Its modular pluggable construction enables fast cartridge replacement, reducing maintenance time while ensuring continuous protection of valuable electrical equipment.
With a 275 V AC maximum continuous operating voltage (Uc), a 3+1 protection configuration and a 12.5 kA lightning impulse current (Iimp), the K1-4PG275 is ideally suited for TT and TNS 230/400 V AC three-phase electrical systems, providing dependable protection against direct lightning currents and switching transients.
