CLA series are low-cost surge and lightning arrestors specially designed for airfield lighting application on runways, taxiways or aprons. They meet all international standards, and are efficient in protection against over voltages and surges resulting from various origins :
External: Atmospheric influences, static loads, lightning strikes, induced surges
Internal: Modification of the electrical stability of the installation in normal operation (switching oscillations) or irregular operation (arcing, ground faults)
Advantage :
Operation security, risks of wrong operation, granted limit of the ignition voltage
Maintenance optimisation, CLA can be easily added in any existing installations, or disconnected for replacement
Internal constitution, the CLAs active part consists of non-linear resistors, molded with polyurethane
