Surge arrester POLIM-X..ND

Silicone-housed surge arrester for DC traction system up to 3 kV with class DC-C

POLIM-X..ND is a surge arrester with metal-oxide (MO) resistors without spark gaps directly molded in silicone housing, grey color, designed and tested according to IEC 62848-1 / EN 50526-1. POLIM-X..ND also has other certifications:

  • Shock and vibration tested according to IEC 61373
  • Fire and smoke behavior tested and classified according to EN 45545-2

It is used for secure protection of DC traction systems against overvoltages from atmospheric discharges and switching conditions.

The arresters also meet the requirements for A1/A2 functions according to the VDV 525 recommendation:

  • A1 – overvoltage protection of equipment connected to traction supply voltage
  • A2 – overvoltage protection for apparatus connected to the running rails

Applications

  • Traction systems – fixed installations
  • Rolling stock
  • Equipment in direct current installations
