One of the main advantages of the Acti9 iPF k is its ability to easily integrate into existing electrical systems thanks to its DIN rail mounting, facilitating a quick and simple installation. The device is designed for TT and TN-S earthing systems, ensuring efficient surge protection in a wide variety of electrical environments.

This product is designed with exceptional durability and robustness. Its tunnel-type terminals allow connections for both rigid cables up to 25 mm² and flexible cables up to 16 mm², offering flexibility for different types of installations. Additionally, the tightening torque of 3.5 N.m ensures secure and reliable connections.

Additional advantages:

• Approved coordination: This surge protector has perfect coordination with thermal-magnetic disconnection circuit breakers, such as the iK60N from Schneider Electric, providing greater protection and safety for the installation.
• Sustainability and efficiency: This product features the Green Premium™ label, ensuring compliance with the latest environmental regulations, promoting sustainability through efficient manufacturing processes and low environmental impact products.
• Environmental resistance: The Acti9 iPF k operates efficiently in a temperature range of -25°C to 60°C, ensuring its performance under extreme weather conditions. Additionally, it can be stored at temperatures ranging from -40°C to 85°C, ensuring long-term reliability.
• Robust protection: With an IP20 protection rating (or IP40 when installed in a modular cabinet), this surge protector is ideal for indoor installations where an adequate level of protection against particles and water is required. Moreover, its impact resistance of IK04 ensures its robustness in demanding environments.

Dimensions and physical specifications:

• Dimensions: 72 mm wide x 81 mm high x 69 mm deep
• Weight: 420 g
• Color: White (RAL 9003)

Thanks to its compact and lightweight design, the Acti9 iPF k easily integrates into electrical panels without taking up too much space, which is especially useful in installations where space is limited.
