Why Choose the Mersen STPT2-40K320V-2PM Surge Protection Device?
The Mersen STPT2-40K320V-2PM is a high-performance Type 2 surge protection device (SPD) designed to protect low-voltage electrical installations against transient overvoltages caused by lightning activity and switching operations. As part of the Mersen Surge-Trap® Pluggable STPT2 Series, it provides reliable surge protection for industrial, commercial and infrastructure electrical systems.
This device features a 40 kA maximum discharge current, 320 V AC maximum continuous operating voltage and a compact pluggable modular design for fast installation and maintenance. The integrated remote indication contact enables condition monitoring from control panels, BMS systems or external signalling circuits.
With a 1Ph+N configuration, 2+0 TNS network arrangement and 2-pole DIN rail format, the STPT2-40K320V-2PM is well suited to distribution boards, control panels, automation systems and electrical installations requiring dependable Type 2 surge protection.
