The PQLA is UL 1449 Type 1 Rated device, allowing connection at the Line or Load side of a
Service Entrance. The PQLA incorporates over current protection rated at 200kAIC-SCCR,
meeting
the NEC 2014 requirement that the SPD be rated equal to or greater than
the AIC rating of the point of connection of the SPD. There is no need
for additional circuit breakers or fuses when installing the PQLA. The
PQLA has a 20kA “ In” (nominal current) rating, and a 40kA surge current
rating. The PQLA is a repetitive SPD, that can protect against
multiple transient power surges.
As there is no longer a Lightning Arrestor UL Category- the economical PQLA is the perfect
replacement for that application.
<p>The
NEMA 4X-UL50 outdoor rated enclosure is constructed of UV-stabilized
thermoplastic. The overall SPD is compact and designed for easy
installation. The threaded housing allows for direct connection to the
electrical panel knockoutmaintaining a short, straight connection.
Visual indication of protection status/failure is easy to see and easy
to read whether the SPD is installed to the right, left, top or bottom
of the protected panel/equipment.
Applications for the PQLA Series SPD are unlimited, but may primarily be meter centers,
residential, motor control centers, pump stations, OEM, industrial, solar combiner boxes, light pole
applications, UL 96A LPS applications, etc.
The PQLA SPD is backed by a Ten (10) Year Replacement Warranty.
