Why Choose the Mersen 83230110 Surge Protection Device?
The Mersen 83230110 is a high-performance Type 2+3 surge protection device (SPD) developed to protect low-voltage electrical installations from transient overvoltages caused by lightning strikes and switching events. As part of the Mersen Surge-Trap® Pluggable STPT23 LF Series, it provides dependable protection for industrial, commercial and OEM electrical systems while remaining Power Line Communication (PLC) friendly.
This compact 2-pole pluggable SPD is designed for 230 V AC TT (1Ph+N) systems using a 1+1 configuration, providing coordinated protection between line-to-neutral (L-N) and neutral-to-earth (N-PE). Its leakage current free design makes it particularly suitable for installations using power line communication technologies.
With a 20 kA maximum discharge current (Imax), 10 kA nominal discharge current (In) and a 275 V AC maximum continuous operating voltage (Uc), the Mersen 83230110 provides reliable protection for control panels, PLCs, power supplies, instrumentation and sensitive industrial automation equipment.
