Overview

The Mersen Surge-Trap® Type 1 SPD (SKU: STT21201PG) offers a fail-safe and economical surge protection solution for both indoor and outdoor applications. This UL 1449 Third Edition Type 1 listed device is designed to meet the stringent requirements of modern electrical systems. Its core innovation is Mersen's patented TPMOV® (Thermal Protected Metal Oxide Varistor) technology, which eliminates the need for additional overcurrent protection devices, simplifying installation and reducing costs. The Surge-Trap Type 1 SPD boasts a robust 200kA Short Circuit Current Rating (SCCR) and a nominal discharge current of 20kA per phase, providing effective protection against transient events like lightning strikes and utility switching. Key features include a compact panel-mount design with integral 16" (0.4m) #12 AWG leads, a rapid response time of less than 25 nanoseconds, and visual end-of-life indication. It is suitable for indoor NEMA 2 applications with its polycarbonate enclosure and outdoor NEMA 4X environments. Mounting options include a ½"-14 threaded hub (STT2 models). The operating and storage temperature range is -40°C to +85°C, making it ideal for demanding industrial settings. Applications include AC distribution systems, power supplies, industrial ratings, telecommunications, and IT/data centers. The Surge-Trap Type 1 SPD serves as a cost-effective replacement for traditional surge arrestors, offering a two-year warranty and simplified installation. Frequency compatibility spans 50-60 Hz.
