Novaris Surge Protector Hazardous Area Threaded Signal Line Protectors IS-SLT

Hazardous Area Threaded Signal Line Protectors IS-SLT

SKU: IS-SLT

Manufacturer: Novaris

The intrinsically safe and flameproof IS-SLT range provides surge protection for most twisted pair signal cables associated with intriscally safe field devices.

Novaris ‘IS-SLT’ products are certified intrinsically safe and flameproof according to IEC Ex and ATEX and so may be installed in Ex d rated instruments without loss of integrity.

The multistage design provides a high energy gas discharge tube (GDT) as primary protection for common mode disturbances, commonly associated with lightning strikes and power system earth faults and a secondary metal-oxide varistor clamping stage across the signal lines. This combination provides very robust surge protection with high transient suppression and low let-through voltages. In addition protection is provided for cable screens which may be open circuit at the instrument.

Novaris ‘IS-’ products have been certified intrinsically safe according to IEC Ex and ATEX; the group IIC T4 certification makes it acceptable for use with all gas/air mixtures.

With two different base options the SL protectors offer either direct earthing via Din rail, for the most effective, low impedance earth connection (-G base) or a connection via GDT to the DIN rail, offering isolation under normal conditions and equipotential bonding during a surge (-EC90 base).
