New 25 kA/Phase SPDs Are Most Economical In Company's Extensive Line
IRVINE, Calif., Nov. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Transtector, an Infinite Electronics brand and a leading provider of end-to-end power and signal integrity solutions, has just introduced a new line of AC surge protectors for LED lighting and whole home surge protection. They are panel-style and rated to be located indoors or outdoors.
The new AC SPDs (surge protective devices) feature a 25 kA/phase 8/20 µs lightning protection surge capacity that is ideal for LED lighting and whole home surge protection. It provides a more economical option in Transtector's product line, which already includes 50 kA, 100 kA, 200 kA and 300 kA/phase capacity protectors.
The products meet NEC Article 230.67 standards, which require all new AC services that feed dwelling units to be equipped with a surge protector. Also, they are UL 1449 5th Edition Listed, meeting Underwriters Laboratories' standards for limiting voltage surges, energy absorption capacity, response time and reliability.
The new line includes models tailored for various types of popular electrical services. The 277 VAC single-phase model is the most common for LED lighting. The versions with 120/240 VAC split-phase are ideal for dwelling units. Other models handle 208/120 VAC Wye, 277/480 VAC Wye and 480 VAC Delta.
The AC SPDs employ thermally protected metal oxide varistor (MOV) technology. MOV is renowned for its quick reaction to voltage spikes, clamping excess voltage levels almost instantaneously. It also has high energy absorption and is both compact and cost-effective.
The new outdoor SPDs are housed in panel-mount NEMA 4X enclosures that seal out dirt, dust and water. Other features include low-voltage protection ratings and LED status indicators. In addition, no external backup fuse is required.
"The 25 kA/phase surge capacity and compact size of these SPDs are ideal for LED lighting and whole home surge protection," said Product Line Manager Dan Rebeck. "They provide another option in our extensive product line for our customers to select the SPD that is best suited for their protection applications."
Transtector's new AC surge protectors for LED lighting and whole home surge protection are in-stock now and available for immediate shipment.
