Phoenix Contact 2905346 Type 2 Surge Arrester 3+1 Poles 275V AC 40kA DIN Rail Grey

Surge arrester for three-phase power systems with integrated remote signaling and high discharge capacity. The Phoenix Contact 2905346 protects low-voltage installations from transient overvoltages caused by lightning strikes or switching operations, ensuring continuous availability of connected equipment.

Advantages

Compact 3+1 pole design saves space on the DIN rail while providing complete protection for L1, L2, L3 and N-PE. The pluggable varistor modules allow quick replacement without disconnecting the wiring, reducing maintenance downtime. A floating changeover contact enables remote monitoring of the protection status, integrating seamlessly into building management systems.
