Why Choose the Mersen 83020150 Surge Protection Device?
The Mersen 83020150 STPT2-40K150V-4P is a dependable Type 2 surge protection device (SPD) designed to protect low-voltage electrical installations against transient overvoltages caused by switching operations and indirect lightning activity. As part of the Mersen Surge-Trap® Pluggable STPT2 Series, it provides reliable protection for commercial, industrial and infrastructure power distribution systems.
This pluggable SPD is built for fast installation, practical maintenance and long-term protection of connected electrical equipment. Its modular cartridge design allows replacement modules to be changed quickly, helping reduce downtime while maintaining effective surge protection across the installation.
With a 40 kA maximum discharge current, 150 V AC maximum continuous operating voltage and 4+0 TNS configuration, the Mersen 83020150 is suitable for 120/208 V AC three-phase plus neutral systems. Its four-pole, four-module DIN rail format makes it ideal for installation inside distribution boards and control panels.
