3201482 - IP67 Quick-Lock - Industrial EMC Shielded Stainless - Circular Connector

The Phoenix Contact 3201482 is a high-performance surge protection module designed to safeguard sensitive industrial automation equipment from voltage spikes, transient overvoltages, and electromagnetic interference (EMI). Part of Phoenix Contact's TRABTECH series, this device ensures reliable protection for control systems, communication networks, and power supplies in harsh environments.
Its compact, DIN rail-mountable design (EN 60715) allows seamless integration into control cabinets, motor control centers, and switchgear panels. The module features a robust polycarbonate housing with IP20 protection, providing resistance to dust and mechanical impacts.
Engineered for universal compatibility, the 3201482 supports a wide range of industrial applications, including PLCs, sensors, and communication interfaces. Compliance with IEC 61643-11, UL 1449, and RoHS/REACH standards ensures global safety and environmental compliance. Visual status indicators (green/red LEDs) provide real-time monitoring of protection status, simplifying maintenance and fault detection.

• Rated Voltage: 24 V DC / 48 V DC (for control circuits)
• Maximum Discharge Current (Imax): 10 kA (8/20 µs pulse), ensuring robust protection against lightning-induced surges
• Voltage Protection Level (Up): <60 V (for 24 V DC systems), minimizing risk to sensitive electronics
• Response Time: <1 ns, providing near-instantaneous reaction to transient events
• Operating Temperature: -40°C to +80°C, suitable for extreme industrial environments
• Connection Type: Screw terminals for secure, vibration-resistant wiring (0.2-2.5 mm² conductor cross-section)
• Certifications: UL 1449 (Type 4), CE, and IEC 61643-11 (surge protective devices)

• PLC and Controller Protection: Shields I/O modules and control logic from voltage surges in manufacturing and robotics
• Sensor Networks: Protects analog/digital sensors in process automation (e.g., chemical plants, water treatment)
• Communication Lines: Secures RS-485, Ethernet, and fieldbus systems (PROFIBUS, CANopen) in industrial networks
• Renewable Energy Systems: Protects solar inverters and wind turbine controllers from lightning-induced surges
• Transportation Infrastructure: Ensures uninterrupted operation in railway signaling and traffic control systems

Its compact design also suits mobile machinery, packaging lines, and semiconductor manufacturing, where space constraints and electrical noise are prevalent.
