Application
Protection of medium voltage AC networks against both, multiple atmospheric and switching overvoltages as well as Very Fast
Transients (VFT). Suitable for instance for the protection of overhead lines and distribution transformers (pole mounted) as well
as other medium voltage equipment. For indoor and outdoor installation. The creepage distance of the L-version is increased.

Advantages
- Low residual voltage - Pollution resistant and UV-stable
- Long protection distance - Housing resistant to rough handling
- High energy input capacity - Maintenance free
- Stable U-I characteristics even after multiple strokes - Stable against shock and vibration
- Proof against ageing - High mechanical resistance
- Explosion and shatter-resistant design

Temporary overvoltage capability (TOV) - Power frequency versus time characteristic

- POLIM-D..N during 1 second (a: 1.390 x Uc or b: 1.316 x Uc)
- POLIM-D..N during 3 seconds (a: 1.370 x Uc or b: 1.290 x Uc)
- POLIM-D..N during 10 seconds (a: 1.337 x Uc or b: 1.262 x Uc)

- POLIM-D..L during 1 second (a: 1.400 x Uc or b: 1.350 x Uc)

- POLIM-D..L during 3 seconds (a: 1.380 x Uc or b: 1.330 x Uc)
- POLIM-D..L during 10 seconds (a: 1.350 x Uc or b: 1.310 x Uc)
- a: value tested with a sample that has not been prestressed by any energy input.
- b: value tetsted with a sample that has been prestressed with a prior energy input according to the operating duty test
- The values have been determined with a test sample preheated at 60 degrees Celsius according to IEC 60099-4 and refer to
an ambient temperature up to 45 degrees Celsius.
