Metal Oxide Surge Arresters
SBK Series in Solid Core Design for applications up to 170 kV

The arresters with silicone housing in Solid Core Design of the SBK series
are available for up to 170 kV.
As for all arresters with silicone housing, Tridelta uses high-quality LSR Silicone, which keeps its hydrophobic and UV-resistant/non-ageing properties over the complete service life and ensures excellent artificial pollution performance.
Because of its modular design, the SBK arresters in Solid Core Design can be easily manufactured adapting to variable lengths, creepage distances and clearances in accordance with customer requirements. Due to their very low weight, they are an ideal solution for application as transmission line arresters in addition to their use as station arresters.

Field of application
Protection of transformers, switchgears, and plants against atmospheric and switching overvoltages
Selection of metal oxide surge arresters
The selection of the rated and the continuous operating voltage of the arresters is depending on the neutral performance of the networks. Guidelines for selection: see DIN VDE 0675/part 5 and IEC 60099-5
