Description
DEHNconnect SD2 Ex (i) is designed for intrinsically safe measuring and control circuits and bus systems and protects one unearthed pair (balanced interface).
Conductors are connected via a vibration-proof spring-loaded connection system. Stripped solid conductors and flexible conductors with wire end ferrule can be easily and quickly inserted into the relevant conductor terminal without the use of tools. For rewiring, the conductor is removed from the clamping point and clamped into a new conductor terminal.
To reduce wiring, jumper bars can be inserted at the protected side of the surge arrester, thus quickly connecting signal circuits.
The arresters are ideally suited for use in the process industry to protect Ex (i) measuring circuits and interfaces for bus communication (e.g. Fieldbus Foundation or Profibus PA).
