DEHNbloc

Maxi
Coordinated Lightning Current Arrester
The coordinated lightning current arresters of the DEHNbloc Maxi family
adjust themselves to every kind of application. Whether being used in an
exposed position or in rough industrial applications: DEHNbloc Maxi
always offers the right solution. The single-pole devices are originally
coordinated with the approved DEHNguard surge arresters of the
Red/Line family. Independent from cable lengths and without requiring
additional decoupling coils, the surge protection concept can be adapted
individually to all conditions at the installation.
DEHNbloc Maxi devices provide the patented technologies of an encap-
sulated creepage discharge spark gap and RADAX-Flow follow current
limitation. Special safety distances from busbars or equipment belong to
the past as well as tripped backup fuses due to lacking selectivity bet-
ween the protective device and overcurrent protection. This ensures the
highest possible system availability.
For indicating the presence of phase voltages and readiness for operation
on site, DEHNbloc Maxi Type DBM 1 255 L provides an integrated opera-
ting voltage indication. Optionally, DEHNbloc Maxi devices can also be
used for signalling the readiness for opera-
tion of the equipment as well as the pre-
sence of operating voltage to a superior
control system via remote signalling con-
tact.
Using the double terminals
of DEHNbloc Maxi devices,
which are suitable for all
types of conductors, allows
to realise a serial connecti-
on up to nominal currents
of 125 A in a space- and
cost-saving way, as prefer-
red by standard IEC 60364-
5-53. The multifunctional
terminal is suitable for
simultaneous connection of
conductors and a busbars.
This allows an easy wiring
to other DIN rail mounted
devices.
