DS98 AC surge protector is used for the "secondary" protection of the single phase networks against the surge voltages created by lightning. It is based on an association between a high energy gas tube and varistors. DS98 is equipped with an internal thermal safety which will disconnect the unit from the AC network in case of end of life. This disconnection will be indicated by the turn on of the red led in the front.
Very compact, the DS98 surge protector must be installed close bythe equipment to protect, downstream a «primary» surge protector ( e.g. DS40). DS98 provides both a common and differential mode protection.
These surge protectors can be classified as Type 2 or Type 3, following test class II or III from IEC 61643-1 standard.
The electrical configuration of the DS98 allows a connection in parallelor series modes. In the last case, the maximum load current is 16 A.

INSTALLATION

DS98L-400 Type 2+3 AC surge protector - single phase are connected in series on the AC network and must be equipped with external fuses for short-circuit current protection

The total length of series connection wires to AC network must be lower than 0.5 m in order not to increase the protection level (Up) provided by the SPD.
Wiring is made by screw connections. On some models, a distribution bus can be used.
The protection wire coming from the SPD must be connected to the bonding bar of the electrical panel. Paralleling the protection wire with phases conductors must be avoided.
The cross sectional wire must be 6 mm² minimum for Type 2 SPD and 16 mm² for Type 1.
Local earthing resistance must be in compliance with the electrical rules.

Further information can be found in IEC 61643-12 standard (selection and application principles for low voltage SPD).
