OBO BETTERMANN OBO MCF30-NAR-TT LightningControllerRail 3-pólový kombinovaný bleskozvod a prepäťová ochrana s NPE 255V

Combined lightning current and surge arrester (Type 1+2 SPD) for three-phase TN-S and TT systems, offering an extremely low voltage protection level of less than 1.5 kV to safeguard sensitive downstream equipment even under severe surge conditions. This 3-pole unit with integrated NPE module provides complete protection for all live conductors and the neutral-to-earth path.

Advantages

This arrester merges the high discharge capacity of a Type 1 lightning current arrester with the low protection level of a Type 2 surge arrester in one compact device. The spark-gap-based NPE module safely handles high impulse currents, while varistor-based phase modules deliver fast response and excellent voltage limiting. An integrated potential-free changeover contact enables remote status monitoring, allowing quick identification of a faulty module without interrupting power. The DIN-rail mountable housing is made of halogen-free, flame-retardant thermoplastic (UL 94 V-0) with IP20 protection, suitable for distribution boards and industrial control panels. Maintenance-free with a high follow current extinguishing capability of 50 kA, it ensures reliable operation even in networks with high short-circuit currents.

Recommendations

For optimal protection, install the OBO MCF30-NAR-TT at the main distribution board of three-phase TN-S or TT systems. Ensure proper grounding and use appropriate backup fuses (max. 315 A gL/gG). Regularly check the remote signaling contact to monitor arrester status and replace modules if indicated.
