VARITECTOR SPC - pluggable surge protection for I&C circuits

With VARITECTOR SPC and SSC Weidmüller offers a new surge protection family for the I&C technology. Concerning the instrumentation and control (I&C) technology it is important to protect the interfaces against power surges. This protection is necessary in the immediate vicinity of I&C devices.

The surge protection families VARITECTOR SPC and SSC are predestined for this purpose. The VARITECTOR SPC family has a compact design of only 17.8 mm and combines the following three features: protection, indication and remote signalling. The surge protection can easily be exchanged due to a pluggable arrester, without having to disconnect the wiring. Furthermore the arrester can easily be checked with the V-Test device. All VARITECTOR SSC products convince by their compact design in form of a modular terminal block – combining both functions connecting and protecting.

Each product line offers a broad product range of high quality electronic circuitry for binary and analogue circuits as well as integrated modules to provide an adequate solution for any application. The PE-conductor is connected without screws, simply by snapping on the earthed mounting rail.
