Why Choose the Mersen 44120408 K1-4PG320 Surge Protection Device?

The Mersen 44120408 K1-4PG320 is a premium Type 1+2 Surge Protection Device (SPD) developed to safeguard three-phase low-voltage electrical installations from lightning currents and transient overvoltages. As part of the proven Mersen Surge-Trap® K - K1 Series, this pluggable SPD provides reliable first-stage protection for commercial, industrial and infrastructure applications requiring dependable power system protection.

Designed for installation within the main distribution board, the K1-4PG320 combines high surge current capability with a compact DIN rail mounted design. Its modular pluggable construction enables rapid replacement of protection cartridges during maintenance, helping minimise downtime whilst maintaining continuous protection of valuable electrical equipment.

Featuring a 320 V AC maximum continuous operating voltage (Uc), a 3+1 protection configuration and a 12.5 kA lightning impulse current (Iimp), the K1-4PG320 is specifically designed for TT and TNS 277/480 V AC three-phase electrical systems, providing effective protection against direct lightning currents and switching surges.

Key Advantages

  • High-performance Type 1+2 surge protection for three-phase installations.
  • 3+1 protection configuration optimised for TT and TNS systems.
  • Compact pluggable cartridge design for quick maintenance.
  • Suitable for 277/480 V AC three-phase networks.
  • DIN rail mounted housing saves valuable panel space.
  • Protects switchgear, PLCs, drives and sensitive electronic equipment against lightning and transient overvoltages.

Key Features

  • Mersen Surge-Trap® K - K1 Series.
  • IEC Class I+II / Type 1+2 surge protection device.
  • 320 V AC maximum continuous operating voltage (Uc).
  • 12.5 kA lightning impulse current (Iimp).
  • 20 kA nominal discharge current (In).
  • 50 kA maximum discharge current (Imax).
  • Four-pole 3+1 protection configuration.
  • Green (OK) / Not Green (Replace) visual status indication.
  • Compact pluggable DIN rail mounted construction.

Reliable Protection Against Electrical Surges

The Mersen K1-4PG320 safely diverts damaging surge currents away from connected electrical equipment before they can reach motors, switchgear, PLCs, drives and sensitive control electronics. This helps reduce equipment failures, minimise downtime and improve the long-term reliability of electrical installations.

Its high lightning current capability, pluggable modular construction and compact footprint make it an ideal solution for industrial facilities, commercial buildings, renewable energy installations and critical infrastructure where dependable surge protection is essential.
