5r/PRD1 35r/PRD1 25r/PRD1 Master

The Type 1 surge arrester is recommended for electrical installations in the service
sector and industrial buildings protected by a lightning conductor or by a meshed
cage.
It protects electrical installations against direct lightning strikes.
It is used to conduct the direct lightning current, propagating from the earth
conductor to the network conductors.
It must be installed with an upstream disconnection device, such as a fuse or
circuit-breaker, whose breaking capacity must be at least equal to the maximum
prospective short-circuit current at the installation point.
iPRF1 12.5r and PRD1 25r surge arresters also provide Type 2 protection and

iPRD-DC direct current surge arresters are designed to protect against overvoltages
due to a lightning strike: of the "DC" input to the inverter and of photovoltaic panels.

It should be installed in a switchboard inside the building. If the switchboard is

located outside, it must be weatherproof.

Withdrawable iPRD-DC surge arresters allow damaged cartridges to be replaced

quickly.
They offer remote reporting of the "cartridge must be changed" message.
