Unleash unparalleled protection against the destructive force of lightning with the GuardianShield Pro™ High-Performance Lightning Arrester. Engineered to safeguard your critical electrical infrastructure, this advanced surge protection device prevents catastrophic damage, operational downtime, and costly repairs caused by overvoltages from direct lightning strikes or switching surges. Invest in peace of mind and ensure the continuous, reliable operation of your systems.
Product Overview
The GuardianShield Pro™ Lightning Arrester is a cornerstone of any robust electrical protection strategy. It acts as a sacrificial component, providing a low-impedance path to ground for transient overvoltages, diverting the lightning current safely away from valuable equipment and personnel. Utilizing cutting-edge Metal Oxide Varistor (MOV) technology, our arresters offer superior energy absorption capability and a rapid response to ensure maximum protection.
Key Features & Benefits
Superior Overvoltage Protection:
Benefit: Protects sensitive equipment from insulation breakdown, flashovers, and permanent damage caused by lightning and switching surges.
Feature: Advanced Metal Oxide Varistor (MOV) blocks provide rapid clamping of overvoltages to safe levels.
High Discharge Current Capability:
Benefit: Withstands extreme lightning impulses without degradation, ensuring reliable, long-term performance even in high-risk areas.
Feature: Designed to handle nominal discharge currents from 5kA up to 20kA and high current impulses up to 100kA.
Ultra-Fast Response Time:
Benefit: Provides instantaneous protection, diverting surge currents in nanoseconds before they can damage protected assets.
Feature: Nearly instantaneous activation of MOV blocks upon detection of an overvoltage.
Low Residual Voltage (LOP):
Benefit: Minimizes the voltage stress on connected equipment, significantly extending its operational life and preventing latent damage.
Feature: Optimally designed to achieve very low protective levels (residual voltage) across its operating range.
Durable & Weather-Resistant Housing:
Benefit: Ensures reliable operation and a long service life in even the harshest environmental conditions, reducing replacement frequency.
Feature: Available with high-grade silicone rubber or robust porcelain housing, offering excellent UV, pollution, moisture, and vibration resistance.
Maintenance-Free Design:
Benefit: Reduces operational costs and eliminates the need for routine inspection and servicing.
Feature: Hermetically sealed, solid-state construction with no moving parts or internal sparking.
Compliance & Certification:
Benefit: Guarantees adherence to stringent international safety and performance standards, providing confidence in product quality and reliability.
Feature: Fully compliant with IEC 60099-4, ANSI/IEEE C62.11, and other relevant national and international standards.
Modular & Versatile Mounting Options:
Benefit: Facilitates easy installation and adaptability across various electrical systems and infrastructure types.
Feature: Available for pole-mounted, substation-mounted, and pedestal installations with various connection configurations.
