Why Choose the Mersen 44120301 K1-3P275-M Surge Protection Device?
The Mersen 44120301 K1-3P275-M is a high-performance Type 1+2 Surge Protection Device (SPD) designed to protect three-phase low-voltage electrical installations from lightning strikes and transient overvoltages. As part of the proven Mersen Surge-Trap® K - K1 Series, this pluggable SPD combines excellent surge protection with integrated remote signalling, making it ideal for industrial, commercial and critical infrastructure applications.
Designed for installation within the main distribution board, the K1-3P275-M provides reliable first-stage protection against high-energy surge events while helping minimise downtime and equipment damage. Its compact DIN rail mounted design and pluggable construction simplify installation and maintenance, whilst the integrated microswitch enables convenient remote monitoring of device status.
With a 275 V AC maximum continuous operating voltage (Uc), 3+0 protection configuration, 12.5 kA lightning impulse current (Iimp) and an integrated remote indication contact, the K1-3P275-M is ideally suited for TNC 230/400 V AC electrical systems requiring dependable surge protection.
