Description:

The Phoenix Contact VAL-CP-S-350 surge protection system equipped with VALVETRAB VAL-CP 350-ST plug-in modules is a modular Type 2 (Class II) Surge Protective Device (SPD) designed for 240/415 V AC – 50/60 Hz power networks.

Manufactured by Phoenix Contact, this high-performance SPD protects electrical installations against transient overvoltages caused by indirect lightning strikes and grid disturbances.

The system features a modular DIN rail design with replaceable plug-in cartridges and integrated visual status indicators (green = operational). It is suitable for both single-phase and three-phase AC systems in residential, commercial, and industrial applications.

⚡ Operating Principle:

In the event of a transient overvoltage:

• The SPD intercepts the voltage spike.

• Excess surge energy is safely diverted to earth.

• Residual voltage is limited to approximately 1.4–1.5 kV, protecting downstream devices.
