New single-position Valvetrab SPP surge protection
The type 2 surge protection devices from Phoenix Contact's Safe Protection Plus (SPP) product family are now also available in single-position versions. This adds five ready-to-install products to the existing series, each of which is available with and without a remote indication contact.

Safe Protection Plus is synonymous with pioneering installation and safety features that ensure high system availability. The new single-position protective devices are also available as complete items, but their design is modular. They consist of a base element, the actual protective plug, and an optional remote signalling module.
The base element in all VAL-SPP versions is equipped with miswiring and touch protection. The type 2 protective plugs are position in this. The disconnect device in the VAL-SPP connector has also been optimised. It triggers even faster and more reliably. The optional remote signalling includes double insulation so that the main and auxiliary circuits are electrically isolated from one another.
