When ever Novaris products are displayed, there will appear a number of icons that represent certain traits of the product. Below is an explanation of the icons:
Compliant with the relevant IEC lightning and surge protection standards, in particular IEC 62305 and IEC 61643.
Novaris models featuring all mode protection provide protection for all combinations of lines (L-N, L-E, N-E) ensuring the maximum level of protection is achieved at all times. They have been designed for installation in any wiring system worldwide.
Models featuring multistage transient protection deliver greater levels of protection through a staged approach. The primary stage absorbs the majority of the surge energy. The remaining stages provide accurate clamping and a degree of redundancy.
Models featuring redundant segments have a parallel redundant arrangement of high energy metal oxide varistors (MOVs), thus promoting long life and exceptional surge handling capacity.
Sustained overvoltages can cause components to overheat and degrade. Thermal sensing warns of this condition without disconnecting the protection.
A digital display confirms the device rating upon switch on, then displays percentage active. The display indicates segment status and thermal overload.
LED indicators are provided to indicate operating status.
The Novaris Surge Indicator Panel (SIP) allows remote monitoring of any Novaris product featuring external alarms. Models featuring external alarms have voltage free changeover contacts (SPDT) for remote status indication.
Protection devices housed in DIN 43880 compliant enclosures allow for convenient installation on DIN rail fittings commonly used in switchboards worldwide.
Novaris surge protection products are housed in safe, all metal enclosures. In the event of a prolonged overvoltage they will not catch fire or explode.
