Zinc Oxide Arrester/Surge Arrester details for you:
The Surge Arrester is the most advanced over-voltage protector in the world. Due to make ther resistor disc of core component mainly adopt zine oxide arrester. Compared with the conventional silicon carbide arrester, this presciption of the product improves greatly the volt-Ampere characterisics of the resistor disc and increased through-current capability at over-voltage so that it can bring a radical changes for the characteristics of the arresters.

Under the condition of normal operating voltage, the current voltage through the arrester is just on microampere degree. When suffered from over-voltage, the arrester's excellent nonlinear characteristics will make the current through the arrester and increase to several thousand amperse, while the arrester will be under the circulating state and release over-voltage energy so that it protects the power thansmission equipments against the damage caused by the over-voltage.

Condition of Use

The ambient air temperature is not higher than +40℃, and not lower than -40℃.
The altitude above sea level does not exceed 1000-2000m(the altiplano area should be indicated when order).
AC system frequency 50Hz or 60Hz
Power frequency voltage brought to bear on arrester for a long time does not exceed arrester's continuous operation voltage.
Maximum wind speed does not exceed 35m/s
The earthquake intensity does no exceed 7 degrees.
The filthy area should be given clear indication

Application & Characteristics

The zinc oxide arrester is applicable to protect the electrical equipment in AC power system against the damage resulted from atmospheris over-voltage and operational over-voltage.

Technical performance
