Product introduction
OVR DIN rail SPD
Introduction
Over 80% of transient surges are caused by internal sources such as load switching
and normal equipment operations. The installation of ABB OVR UL 1449 3rd Edition
pluggable AC DIN rail SPDs will combat these surges and provide protection to
valuable equipment and help keep an operation up and running. This new product
range is approved as Type 4 recognized components and is usable in Type 2
applications. These products are of the same high quality as ABB UL 1449 2nd Edition
devices, with improved safety as a result of additional testing required by the UL
1449 3rd Edition standard. Installation at branch panels, control panels and terminal
equipment is recommended to provide the most complete protection.
Features & benefits
The OVR DIN rail SPDs utilize fast acting metal oxide varistor (MOV) technology to limit
overvoltage to values compatible with the sensitive equipment connected to the network.
End of life indicator
This feature is standard on all ABB pluggable OVR DIN rail surge protectors.
Each cartridge is equipped with a mechanical indicator which is green when
the SPD is operational and protecting the system, and turns red when it has
reached end of life. When this occurs, the cartridge must be replaced to
guarantee protection.
Pluggable
The ability to efficiently maintain equipment is a key focus topic for industrial facilities.
For this reason, ABB OVR DIN rail SPDs (excluding data line products) now utilize
pluggable cartridges. Should one or more cartridges reach end of life, the electrical
circuit does not have to be isolated, nor does the whole device have to be removed.
Simply pull the dead cartridge from its housing and plug in a new one.
H
NOTE: A surge protector that has reached
end of life does not interrupt service, it
simply disconnects itself, and the system
is no longer protected.

Product selection
OVR DIN rail SPD
Choosing the correct model
1) Determine the service voltage
Consult qualified personnel if the facility or operation service voltage is unknown.
2) Select the SPD maximum continuous operating voltage (MCOV, Uc)
The MCOV should correspond to the service voltage.
Example: If the service voltage is 480V Delta, an SPD with 550V or 660V MCOV will be required.
Surge protection devices must also provide a level of protection compatible with the withstand voltage of the equipment. This withstand
voltage depends on the type of equipment and its sensitivity. The incoming surge protector may not provide adequate protection by
itself, as certain electrical phenomena may greatly increase its residual voltage if cable lengths exceed 10m. A second SPD may be
necessary. See Coordination below.
3) Select the SPD surge capacity (Imax)
Surge capacity is the amount of energy the SPD can withstand from a single surge event. The higher the surge capacity, the longer the
device will protect the system. A second surge protector may be required if the surge capacity of the first is not capable of diverting all
surge current to ground. See Coordination below.
4) Remote monitoring (Optional)
Integrated auxiliary contact for remote monitoring available on models with TS designation.
Consult the Service Voltage and Location table on page 16.16 for help in the selection of SPDs.

Complete facility protection
Installing surge protection at the main distribution panel is only the beginning of protecting the entire operation. As most transient surges
are created internally, it is necessary to install surge protection at sub-distribution panels (equipment protection) to be fully protected.
Stepping down the Imax level from the service entrance panel toward equipment to be protected is recommended.
For example, if a 40kA Imax SPD is installed in the main distribution panel, then 15kA Imax SPDs should be installed in sub-distribution
panels for equipment protection.
Coordination
It may be necessary to add a second surge protector, wired to the incoming unit, to achieve the required voltage protection and/or
surge capacity. For Type 2 or 4 SPDs, installing this second unit a minimum of 1m from the first unit will allow the two to work together,
achieving the required protection.
Wiring rules
The impedance of the cables increases the voltage across the connected equipment. Therefore, the length of the cable between the
surge protector and the equipment should be minimized.
The surge protective device should be installed as close to the equipment to be protected as possible. If this is not possible (the
equipment is over 30m from the panel), then a second surge protector must be installed.

Introduction
Providing power with photovoltaic (PV) solar panels is an ever increasing part of public utilities renewable
energy portfolios, designed to provide electricity in an economical manner, within the context of regulations
and scarce resources. Installations are frequently in isolated areas, and combined with the large surface area
of a group of panels, the risk of damage from direct and indirect lightning strikes is high.
To mitigate this risk, ABB recommends the installation of OVR PV surge protective devices on the DC portion
of the system. ABB provides a wide range of surge protection devices that have been specifically designed
for photovoltaic systems.
The main features of the OVR PV surge protectors are:
Built-in thermal protection with 25A DC breaking capacity
Removable cartridges for easy maintenance with no need to isolate the line
Remote signalling contact for monitoring the operating status (TS versions)
No subsequent short-circuit current
No risk if the polarity is reversed

Introduction
In order to ensure complete protection for equipment in a facility, telecommunication lines entering the installation must have surge
protection. Doing so will keep computers, fax machines and other data and communications equipment safe.
The main features of OVR data line surge protectors are:
10kA maximum discharge current
Nominal voltage: 6, 12, 24, 48 and 200 VDC
Visual life indicator
UL 497B approved
OVR data line DIN Rail SPD
