Specifications:
The document outlines the specifications for a remote control contact used in surge protective devices. It details the range of signal access and recommended wire specifications for both AC and DC systems. For AC, the maximum voltage is 250V with a current of 0.5A, using single-core wire with a maximum diameter of 1.5mm. For DC, the maximum voltage is 60V with a current of 0.1A, using multi-core wire with a maximum diameter of 1.3mm. Models without an 'S' in their number do not have remote control contact functionality.
Model Information:
The models listed include FV40C/3+NPE-150(S), FV40C/3+NPE-275(S), FV40C/3+NPE-320(S), FV40C/3+NPE-385(S), and FV40C/3+NPE-440(S). These models are tested under IEC/EN/VDE Class II/C standards and are suitable for TT type networks. They offer protection modes for L1, L2, L3-N, and N-PE.
Electrical Characteristics:
The nominal voltage is specified as 110/220V~ or 220/380V~ at 50(60)Hz. The rated voltage (UC) varies from 150V to 440V across different models. The maximum discharge current (Imax) is 80kA, and the nominal discharge current (In) is 40kA. The voltage protective level (Up) ranges from ≤1.0kV to ≤2.7kV for L-N and is consistently ≤1.5kV for N-PE. The response time is ≤25ns for L-N and ≤100ns for N-PE.
Installation and Operation:
Recommended back-up fuse is 125A, with an isolation resistance greater than 10 MΩ. I/O connections require multi-core wire ranging from 6mm to 35mm. The device is mounted on a 35mm symmetrical rail (EN50022/DIN46277-3). It operates within a temperature range of -40℃ to +80℃, humidity of 30% to 90%, and up to an altitude of 3000m. The degree of protection is IP20, and the housing material is UL94 V-0.
Additional Features:
The device includes a mechanical disconnection indicator (green for OK, red for replace) and an optional remote control contact. It consists of a base part and pluggable protection modules (MOV + GDT). It is designed for use in lightning protection zones at boundary 1-2, with metal oxide varistor components for high discharge capacity, low residual voltage, and quick response. It features reliable control with a Thermo Dynamic Control disconnector and fault indication via a red mark in the inspection window.
