Phoenix Contact’s FLT-CP-PLUS protectors are compact, application-oriented lighting protectors of EN type 1. Suitable installation blocks are available for all established applications. The pluggable spark gaps combine high performance characteristics such as discharge capacity of up to 100 kA and secondary power supply current elimination capacity of 50 kA. This means that the lightning protector can also be installed in direct proximity to transformer units with short circuit currents up to 50 kA. The high rated voltage means that it can be used worldwide.
The pluggable version is extremely easy to install and service. During servicing, the protection plugs can simply be removed without altering the installation. Depending on the wiring direction, the basic unit can also be installed at 180°. This simplifies installation and avoids unnecessarily long wires. Regardless of the basic unit’s installation direction, the plugs can be installed so that the label can be read.
The mechanical status display on every L-N connector plug makes it possible to check the function directly. The integrated telecommunications contact can be used to integrate the collective status message from all channels into a monitoring system.
