FAQ
Common questions about LY1-C40/3(S) three-pole pluggable Type 2 AC surge protective device selection and installation.
What is LY1-C40/3(S) used for?
LY1-C40/3(S) is used to limit transient overvoltage in three-phase low-voltage AC systems. It is suitable for distribution boards, industrial control cabinets, machinery power panels, and commercial electrical systems.
Is LY1-C40/3(S) a Type 2 SPD?
Yes. LY1-C40/3(S) is classified as a Class II / Type 2 AC surge protective device. The incorrect Type 1CA wording should not be used.
Quelles sont les valeurs de courant de décharge qu'il fournit ?
Le SPD fournit un courant de décharge nominal de 20kA In et un courant de décharge maximum de 40kA Imax. Le tableau technique mentionne également un paramètre de courant d'impulsion de 7kA.
Quelles options de tension sont disponibles ?
Maximum continuous operating voltage options include 75V, 150V, 275V, 320V, 385V, and 440V AC. Select the correct version according to the nominal system voltage.
Quel est l'avantage du design modulaire ?
Each cartridge can be inspected or replaced independently without removing the permanently wired base, reducing maintenance time and simplifying servicing.
Que doit-on confirmer avant de commander ?
Confirm the nominal system voltage, required Uc and Up level, three-pole protection arrangement, 125A maximum backup-fuse coordination, conductor size, DIN-rail space, and remote-contact requirement.
