Surge arrester MVR

Surge arrester for systems up to 1 kV

MVR is a surge arrester with metal-oxide (MO) resistors without spark gaps, designed and tested with reference to IEC 60099-4.

It is used for secure protection of medium voltage systems against overvoltages from atmospheric discharges and switching conditions.
 

Applications

  • Power electronics
  • High-voltage cable sheath
  • Low-voltage motors
  • Components of low-voltage secondary equipment
