Why Choose the ABB RT5/150 Surge Suppressor?

The ABB RT5/150 is a compact transil diode surge suppressor designed to protect DC operated ABB contactors and contactor relays from voltage spikes generated when inductive loads are switched. It helps reduce overvoltage peaks and improve the reliability of industrial control circuits.

This surge suppressor clips directly onto compatible ABB contactors or contactor relay bases without increasing the overall device dimensions. Its fast voltage clipping characteristics help protect sensitive electrical components while maintaining reliable contactor operation.

With a rated control circuit voltage range of 77–150 V DC, the ABB RT5/150 is suitable for ABB DC operated contactors and industrial automation systems where suppression of coil switching surges is required.

Key Advantages

  • Dedicated surge suppressor accessory for ABB contactors and contactor relays.
  • 77–150 V DC control circuit compatibility for industrial applications.
  • Reduces voltage spikes generated during inductive coil switching.
  • Fast clipping response helps protect electronic components.
  • Compact clip-on design requires no additional mounting space.
  • Simple and reliable installation solution for ABB switching systems.

Key Features

  • ABB RT5 surge suppressor series.
  • Transil diode surge suppression technology.
  • Designed for DC operated contactors.
  • Rated control voltage: 77–150 V DC.
  • Unpolarised suppression system.
  • Clip-on mounting to compatible ABB contactors and contactor relays.
  • Suitable for industrial automation control circuits.

Reliable Protection for Industrial Switching Systems

Surge suppressors such as the ABB RT5/150 help improve the reliability of industrial control systems by limiting transient overvoltages created during contactor coil switching. This reduces the risk of interference and damage to sensitive electrical components.

The ABB surge suppressor range is designed for machine builders, panel manufacturers and automation engineers requiring dependable protection accessories for low-voltage switching equipment.
