Distributed protection is the most effective form of protection available. Strategic placement of multiple protection units
throughtout the facility not only provides superior protection but also extends the life of the protection units. The Model SSS-24VDCB-20J provides ample line-to-line
circuit protection at a cost-effective price.

Summary:
This unit is designed to protect the nominal 24VDC Signal House Power. The maximum rated voltage is 31VDC. This device also has built-in Protection-Status Indicators that let you know if
the protection is working or not. This is a primary / secondary stage protector and can be readily used in the recommended Site-Specific Solutions Distributed Protection Architecture
(contact our Engineering department for details). These are very effective in rack protection where they are wired across the DC power bus terminal posts located
in each of your equipment racks, protecting all DC powered equipment in the rack. This protector is ready to install and mounts directly onto a standard AAR Terminal Block with 1 inch
center-to-center post spacing. This device can also be tailored to protect many other DC voltage applications. Because of its potted construction, it can be used in very harsh environments indoors and outdoors.
Application information:
These devices can be used to protect the main 24VDC House Battery Bus, Individual Rack Power Buses, and dedicated signaling apparatus protection.
The mounting is simple and quick to standard AAR terminals (1in. centers).
