PREGUNTAS FRECUENTES
Common questions about LY1-C40PV/3(S) 1000V (D4) three-pole pluggable Type 1+2 DC surge protective device selection.
What is LY1-C40PV/3(S) 1000V (D4) used for?
It is designed to protect 1000V DC photovoltaic and DC power systems against lightning-induced surges and switching transient overvoltage. Typical installation locations include PV combiner boxes, inverter DC inputs, and DC distribution cabinets.
Is this a Type 1+2 DC SPD?
Yes. It is classified as Class I+II / Type 1+2 and includes both 8/20μs discharge-current ratings and a 10/350μs impulse-current rating.
What does the D4 configuration mean?
D4 identifies the product’s specific three-module internal and wiring configuration. The installation arrangement should follow the product wiring diagram supplied with the unit.
¿Qué clasificaciones de corriente de descarga proporciona?
It provides 20kA nominal discharge current In, 40kA maximum discharge current Imax, and 6.25kA impulse discharge current Iimp.
Can the protection modules be replaced separately?
Yes. The pluggable design allows individual protection modules to be inspected or replaced without removing the permanently wired base.
¿Qué se debe confirmar antes de ordenar?
Confirm the maximum PV system voltage, D4 wiring configuration, grounding arrangement, required voltage protection level, backup-fuse coordination, conductor size, installation location, and optional remote-contact requirement.
