Products – Polymer Housed Surge Arresters – PVI-LP

PVI-LP, IEEE Intermediate Class, IEC Class SL Overview – PVI-LP arresters are the most economical arrester to use on systems up to 69 kV (72.5 kV max). They are particularly suited for light-to-moderate duty applications where light weight and compact profile are of particular importance. Their narrow profile allows smaller phase-to-ground clearances and phase-to-phase spacings than other arresters, making them particularly well-suited for installations where space is at a premium, such as cabinets or other electrical enclosures and on mobile substations.

Construction: • “Wrap” design, using fiberglass reinforced epoxy stranding to form a wrapped envelope directly over the MOV discs • ESP™ rubber housing applied over wrapped MOV module • Silicone compound interface between module and housing to render a void-free assembly • Tripod base (Slotted 8.75 (222) - 10.0 (254) inches (mm) bolt circle) At-a-Glance: • Less than half the weight of a comparably rated porcelain-housed arrester • Narrow profile for reduced clearance to ground and between phases • Install straight from the package – no field assembly required
