3-, 2- Or 1- Stage Protection with Tension Spring Connection

• Weidmüller MCZ OVP surge protection terminals are characterised by their maximum protective function concentrated in a compact space of 6 mm.
• The tension clamp connection and direct earthing via the terminal rail contact results in a time-saving during installation.
• The MCZ OVP terminals are predestined for confined spaces in process, industrial and building services automation.

Triple-Stage Protection with Screw Connection

• Slimline overvoltage protection terminal with screw connection

If surge voltages are coupled onto transmission paths, sensitive signal inputs can be damaged or destroyed. It is important to provide protection in the vicinity of measurement and control devices.

Weidmüller's VARITECTOR SPC pluggable surge protection is remarkable for its combination of extremely high protective functionality and compact dimensions. It is suited for use in measurement and control circuits. The size is made possible by the selection of INSTA dimensions, with a width of 17.8 mm (1TE). Two versions are available:

• VSPC: a surge protector with no monitoring function
• VSPC R: a surge protector with monitoring function

The base components are plugged in to form a direct earthing contact via the mounting rail. Thus you save time during the connection. The VARITECTOR SPC series is optimally designed for compact installation locations in process automation, industrial automation or building automation.

The VARITECTOR SSC combined surge protection, a direct PE contact function, separation of signal paths and operational status indication in one module. It is suitable for C & I applications. The disconnect lever in the terminal guarantees that the measurement/control circuit can be quickly and precisely switched off to test the signal path. Using a test plug (PS 2.3 mm), the measuring instrument can be easily inserted into the integrated test socket on Torx/Slot headed screws.

The shield can be attached onto the additional lower level of the VSSC 6AN which then leads directly to the PE potential on the mounting rail. Permanent shielding can be implemented easily using the EMC set. Weidmüller's SNAPMARK device marker can be snapped onto a terminal so that the equipment identification can be easily read regardless of the installation position.

Weidmüller offers a comprehensive product line for the measurement and control industry. This includes products with a two-part pluggable design or with a terminal design and with Either Screw or Tension Clamp Connection Type. These products work with both binary and analogue signals. Weidmüller also offers other models with integrated components such as gas discharge tubes or varistors.

VARITECTOR represents Weidmüller's versatile and variable surge protection solution. In the VARITECTOR SPC and SSC product lines - just as with the MCZ OVP - the electrical and mechanical characteristics are optimally combined. Size and convenient handling are the key factors here.

JACKPAC 1-Stage & 3-Stage Surge Protection

The surge protection is plugged in to protect the sensitive electronics in the signalling circuit. The suppression circuit with varistor suppresses the induced voltage in solenoid valves. The PE connection leaves the housing via a separate line. The green/yellow earthing cable must be connected to the system east to ensure reliable discharge of interference pulses.

Jackpac OVP terminal equipment against the overvoltages that can occur as a result of atmospheric discharges or storms. This type of protection in the form of an adapter is available in IP20 and IP67 versions and complies with the requirements of class III to IEC 61643-21.

Single-Stage Protection

• Overvoltage protection with individual components
  • with gas discharge tube
  • with suppressor circuit
  • with suppressor diode
  • with varistor

Metal oxide varistors are used in the terminal design. They are approved for the maximum sinusoidal operating ac voltage indicated on the component. Any voltage exceeding the stated voltage is discharged safely. Varistors can be used for medium to large ratings.
