and combinations of current loops and 24 V = binary signal, blue
voltage supply e.g. 24 V. 24 V = analogue signal, yellow
48 V = red
60 V = violet
Tester
The pluggable arrestor VSPC can be
tested with the V-TEST test instrument
to comply with maintenance intervals
in accordance with IEC 62305. Also
suitable for energy surge protection
units PU I and PU II.
Monitoring Function

can be evaluated externally.
Standard-Conformant
Usable in accordance with installations
standard IEC 62305: safely discharges
high impulse currents up to 20 kA
(8/20 µs) and 2,5 kA (10/350 µ) to
PE. Tested for classes D1, C2 and C1
to IEC 61643-21.

VARITECTOR SSC
Large variety: the solution for all cases of surge protection equipment
Quick Identification
Large-scale marking options: marking
of connections for equipment or
individual devices and colour-coded
markings of the various voltage
levels for quick identification in the
switching cabinet.
EMC Set
Large Variety Comprises shield connector and
More than 100 varieties: current cable ties with shield cover. Using the
loops and binary signals for 5 V, 12 V, EMC set, the conductor shield can
24 V, 48 V and 60 V and integrated easily be connected to the clamping
components such as varistors. yoke connections of the VSSC or
VSPC modules.
Convenient
Comprises a clamping range
from 0.5 mm≈ to 6 mm≈ with a
slotted-head Torx screw and a
locking torque of 0.8 to 1.0 Nm.

IEC COMPLIANT
All VARITECTOR products comply with the
latest IEC 61643-21:2008 requirement
and with categories D1, C1, C2 and C3
according to IEC 61643-22.
SURGE PROTECTION
FOR CONTROL & INSTRUMENTATION
Including disconnect/measurement function
Weidmüllers New VSSC range of surge diverters provide surge protection for control & instrumentation circuits
coupled with a market leading range of features (test points, disconnection, indication and identification). The entire
VSSC range has been designd and tested to meet the current IEC standards and provide up to 20KA protection.
Weidmüllers VSSC range will enable you to protect your installation without sacrificing space, design & serviceability.
