The Schneider EIIM2 40KA 3P+N is a 3-pole + neutral (3P+N) surge protective device (SPD) designed to protect electrical installations from transient overvoltages caused by lightning strikes, switching operations, or other electrical disturbances.
Parameters:
Type: EIIM2 40KA
Number of Poles: 3P+N (3-phase + neutral)
Nominal Voltage: 230/400V AC (for 3-phase systems)
Maximum Continuous Operating Voltage (Uc): 385V AC (for 3-phase systems)
Surge Current Rating: 40kA (8/20μs waveform)
Nominal Discharge Current (In): 20kA (8/20μs)
Impulse Protection Level (Up): 1.5kV or lower (for 3-phase systems)
Protection Mode: L-N (Line-to-Neutral), L-L (Line-to-Line), N-PE (Neutral-to-Earth)
Response Time: <25ns (typical response time to a surge event)
Mounting: Din Rail Mountable (standard for electrical panels)
Status Indicators: LED indicators for device status (indicating whether the SPD is in operational condition or if it requires maintenance)
Protection Type:
Surge Protection (for transient overvoltages)
Lightning Strike Protection (for direct and induced surges)
Switching Surge Protection (protects against transient overvoltages from switching electrical equipment)
Standards Compliance:
IEC 61643-1 (Surge protective devices connected to low-voltage power systems)
EN 61643-11 (Low-voltage surge protective devices – Part 11: Surge protective devices for specific installations)
UL 1449 (Surge Protective Devices)
