FAQ

Which systems is the C40 series designed for?

Photovoltaic DC buses and other DC networks from 48V to 1000V. Select the model by matching Uc.

How do I choose among C40-48 / 220 / 500 / 600 / 1000?

Choose by the max continuous voltage Uc of your DC bus, then verify surge ratings (In/Imax) and target a low Haut de la page.

Where should the SPD be installed?

Install at the DC combiner/distribution panel with parallel wiring, short leads, and a reliable PE bar. Follow the diagram.

Is the module replaceable and is remote signaling available?

Yes. The cartridge is pluggable for quick replacement; an optional alarm contact can be wired to SCADA/BMS.

What environmental and wiring requirements apply?

Température de fonctionnement −40°C ~ +80°C, cross-section of L/N ≥10mm², enclosure IP20.

How should surge protection be coordinated?

Coordinate with upstream over-current protection (e.g., DC fuse/breaker) and inverter limits to ensure selectivity and safety.
