Product Uses


Type T1+T2 DC photovoltaic surge protector is a crucial component designed to safeguard solar panel systems from the detrimental effects of power surges caused by lightning or other sources. Here's a breakdown of its functions based on the information from various sources:


  1. Lightning and Surge Protection: The T1+T2 surge protector is specifically engineered to handle lightning currents and protect against surges in photovoltaic (PV) systems. This device is suitable for both isolated and grounded up to 1500 V DC PV systems and is designed for easy DIN rail mounting. It includes three pluggable, temperature-monitored protective elements that ensure the system's safety during extreme surge events.

  2. System Security: Photovoltaic systems are increasingly becoming a vital part of the renewable energy landscape. However, they are susceptible to damage from electrical surges. The T1+T2 surge protector provides a level of security necessary to maintain the system's integrity and longevity. It's an essential aspect of ensuring that the solar PV system can continue to operate smoothly despite the presence of electrical disturbances.

  3. Device Composition and Features: The surge protective device comprises a base part and three plug-in high-energy Metal Oxide Varistor (MOV) protection modules. It often includes a remote signaling contact for monitoring the device's status, and a thermal disconnect mechanism that provides a visual indication via a red indicator flag if there's a fault. This feature helps in quick diagnostics and maintenance, ensuring that any issues can be addressed promptly to minimize downtime.

  4. Waveform Protection: The T1+T2 surge protector is capable of withstanding several types of surge waveforms, including the 10/350µs waveform (Type 1), which is the waveform associated with direct lightning strikes, and the 8/20µs waveform (Type 2), which is related to indirect strikes and switching surges. By covering both types of waveforms, the surge protector ensures comprehensive protection for the PV system from the most severe surges to more common, smaller surges that can still cause damage over time.


Overall, the T1+T2 DC photovoltaic surge protector is an integral part of a PV system's electrical protection scheme, designed to ensure that the investment in solar energy remains secure against unpredictable and potentially damaging electrical events.
