Capabilities
Xp product line-up is part of the new hybrid DC Over-Current Protection (O.C.P.) range developed by Mersen. Xp features a high cycling performance DC protection device that can clear both high and low-fault current at 1,000 VDC in less than 1 ms, providing maximum flexibility in equipment design and ultimate protection. They have been engineered to provide protection for DC applications: Battery Energy Storage, EV/HEV, Smart-grid, PV installations, etc. The Xp system is composed of a fast acting pyro element, controlled by a gate current, plus a parallel clearing element. This protection meets custom requirements of very fast operating time and very high overload current.
- EV/HEV
- Battery Energy Storage
