•H
igh energy handling
and high pollution
performance
TE Connectivity’s (TE) Bowthorp EMP porcelain single column arresters
with line discharge classes from 2 to 5, are available up through
800 kV systems for protection of power equipment and apparatus from
lightning and switching over voltages.
The design consists of porcelain housing available in Gray or Brown, which
conforms to IEC 60.815 with an Aero Dynamic shed profile. The ZnO
varistors, spacers and locating rings are assembled under compression
with pressure relief diaphragms at either end. The air void is evacuated
and replaced with dry air, then sealed. System seal is evaluated during the
routine tests using a vacuum chamber specially developed by TE.
All ranges of single column porcelain arresters have been tested in
accordance to the IEC 60099-4 standard. Type tests have been carried out
and demonstrate high energy handling and high pollution performance.
•P
ressure relief performance
up to 65 kA
•S
afe non-shattering short
circuit behavior
• Available in Gray or Brown
Customers can count on consistent, high quality products, driven by TE’s
proven innovation and backed by our extraordinary customer support.
