Type 2 surge protective devices
Narrow and powerful
Type 2 surge protection should be present in every sub-distribution. It is the only way to achieve effective protection.
Switching operations are far and away the most frequent cause of surge voltages. Type 2 surge protective devices provide effective protection against these dynamic disturbance variables. Whether in an industrial environment or in a residential building, type 2 protections ensures basic protection for your installations and devices.
Your advantages
-
Low voltage protection level thanks to varistor-based protective circuit
-
Optimum protection against surge voltages thanks to high-performance disconnect device
-
High short-circuit current capability up to 50 kA
-
Saves time, money, and space thanks to use up to 315 A without a backup fuse
-
Easy maintenance thanks to universally pluggable protective devices
Most narrow type 2 surge protective device in the world
Type 2 surge protection in the sub-distribution
With an overall width of just 12 mm per channel, VALVETRAB SEC is the narrowest type 2 surge protective device in the world. With an overall width of just 48 mm, you are able to implement excellent protection against surge voltages in a five-conductor system.
The protective device offers a voltage protection level of 1.5 kV. This means it meets the requirements of type 3 device protection. VALVETRAB SEC limits voltage peaks to such an extent that machines, systems, and household appliances are not damaged.
For industry and building installations with an external lightning protection system, type 2 surge protection is the second level of protection after the type 1 lightning arresters. The surge protective device handles short-circuit currents up to 50 kA. You can use the type 2 protective device without a backup fuse up to a main fuse nominal current of 315 A.

Enduro - Complete package for heavy-duty workRead moreEnduro Softslings builds machines for the manufacture of its own heavy lifting soft slings. For a new machine, it called in itsme for the full package: advice on the drives, supply of components and programming of the controls. “We completed the entire project in just over six months. That’s fast for such a specialised machine.”

Azteq - Warm Cooperation on Solar Thermal EnergyRead moreAzteq aims to revolutionise European green heat technologies on an industrial scale and is developing solar heating systems to do so. The Belgian start-up cooperates in projects with technical service providers, who in turn call upon Breemes for advice and the supply of components. For a major project in Seville, there were challenges regarding the delivery times of the decentralised PLCs and on how they could communicate with each other in the large facility.

BMI - Providing Peace of Mind by Mapping DrivesRead moreAt RBB, the production of concrete roof tiles runs on drives that mostly come from Danfoss and are up to 20 years old. Breemes assessed their status and made recommendations for maintenance, replacement and standardisation. As a result, the supplier provided its customer RBB with higher efficiency in terms of spare stocks of drives and energy consumption in production - and ultimately a better night's sleep.

Vicoma - Virtual Reality Actually Delivers Lighting BenefitsRead moreA lighting plan may look nice on paper or screen, but ultimately what counts is what the lighting does in reality. Virtual reality can help to get a good idea of this in advance. Consultant Vicoma and lighting expert itsme proved it in a project for the Royal Netherlands Navy. "They knew within 7 minutes: ‘That’s how we want it’."
