Dehn scaricatore di sovratensione tipo 2 DG S 275 FM

Protect your electrical installations from transient overvoltages caused by lightning strikes or switching operations with the Dehn Type 2 Surge Arrester DG S 275 FM. This varistor-based surge protective device (SPD) is designed for installation in low-voltage systems to safeguard sensitive equipment and prevent costly downtime.

Who is it for

Electricians, panel builders, and facility managers seeking reliable surge protection for residential, commercial, and industrial applications. The DG S 275 FM is suitable for use in main distribution boards and sub-distribution boards where a Type 2 SPD is required according to IEC 61643-11.

Main features
