Surge protector Dehn DEHNcube YPV SCI 1000 1M type 2

The Dehn DEHNcube YPV SCI 1000 1M type 2 is a compact and reliable surge protection device engineered to safeguard sensitive electrical installations and equipment from transient overvoltages. As a type 2 surge arrester, this unit is specifically designed to be installed within distribution boards, providing an essential layer of defense against voltage spikes that can occur due to switching operations or indirect lightning strikes. Its single-module design ensures it occupies minimal space, making it an efficient choice for modern electrical systems.

Advantages

This surge protector offers a high level of operational safety through its integrated SCI technology, which ensures reliable disconnection in the event of a fault. The compact 1M form factor allows for easy integration into existing distribution boards without requiring significant modifications. By limiting surge voltages to safe levels, it effectively extends the lifespan of connected electronic equipment and reduces the risk of costly downtime or hardware damage. The device is built to meet rigorous safety standards, providing consistent performance in various electrical environments.

Suitable for

• Residential electrical distribution boards
• Commercial switchgear installations
• Light industrial power distribution systems
• Protection of sensitive electronic control equipment

When it may not be suitable

This device is not intended for use as a primary lightning protection system against direct lightning strikes. It is designed specifically for type 2 surge protection and should be used in conjunction with appropriate type 1 arresters if the installation is exposed to high-risk lightning environments.

Key specifications

• Type: 2 surge arrester
• Mounting: DIN rail (1 module)
• Protection level: Optimized for transient overvoltage limitation
• Technology: Integrated SCI fault monitoring
• Application: Electrical distribution boards

How to use

The device should be installed by a qualified electrician in accordance with local electrical regulations. It is mounted on a standard DIN rail within the distribution board. Ensure that the connection cables are kept as short as possible to maintain optimal protection performance. The unit is connected in parallel to the supply circuit, and the status indicator should be checked periodically to ensure the device remains operational.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the system voltage matches the device specifications
• Ensure there is sufficient space on the DIN rail in your distribution board
• Confirm that the installation environment meets the required protection class

Usage recommendations

Regularly inspect the status indicator on the device to confirm it is functioning correctly. If the indicator shows a fault, the module should be replaced immediately to maintain continuous protection for your electrical equipment.
