V502AS32

AS Series Data Sheet January 1998 File Number 2492.4 High Energy Metal-Oxide Arrester Blocks The AS Series of Arrester blocks is primarily designed to be used as the surge suppression element within a lightning arrester assembly. These arrester blocks provide the high peak surge current and energy ratings required for the protection of high voltage AC power utility distribution systems. Typically, these devices are placed within a special arrester housing provided by the customer, and stacked to achieve the necessary continuous working voltage ratings for the specific application. (See the CA or NA series of Varistor discs for lower voltage and energy applications.) Features Provided in Disc Form for Unique Packaging by Customer Electrode Finish Enables Pressure Contact for Stacking Application Available Disc Sizes: 32mm, 42mm and 60mm Diameter No Follow Current High Surge Current Capability Conforms to IEC 99-4 and ANSI/IEEE C62.11 Industry Standards Characterized for Lightning Arrester Parameters [ /Title (AS Series) /Subject (High Energy MetalOxide Arreste r Blocks ) /Autho r () /Keywords (TVS, Transient Suppression, Protection, Arreste r, Lightning Protection, Applications Lightning Protection of Electrical AC Distribution Transformers and Systems Arrester Assemblies of the Porcelain Polymeric, “Under-oil” and Metal Clad Variety d de n e – mm ns o g c i e s s tR Ha De s w No e d rie rN ue Se t o n t i F en nt uc m o d e c o c Pr Dis epla n e R Be No ...
