FURSE® SURGE PROTECTION ACCESSORIES

ABB’s Furse surge protection accessories support the installation, monitoring, and maintenance of surge protection systems.

ABB's Furse surge protection accessories deliver everything needed to install, house, monitor and maintain Furse ESP Surge Protection Devices correctly and in compliance with IEC/BS EN 62305. From IP-rated enclosures and combined mounting and earthing kits to remote display units and spare replacement modules, the accessories range keeps surge protection systems fully operational and easily serviceable throughout their lifetime.

EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO INSTALL AND MAINTAIN SURGE PROTECTION CORRECTLY

ABB's Furse surge protection accessories are purpose-designed to complement the full Furse ESP SPD range, ensuring that every installation is correctly housed, earthed, monitored and maintained. The accessories range spans weatherproof enclosures from IP56 to IP67 for data signal and mains power SPDs in outdoor and harsh environments, metallic enclosures for indoor DIN rail applications, combined mounting and earthing kits that simultaneously mount and earth groups of up to 32 data and signal SPDs via a heavy-duty copper earth bar, and the ESP RDU remote display unit, which connects to the volt-free contact of any Furse power SPD to provide safe and convenient status indication from outside the distribution panel. Pluggable replacement protection modules are available for the full ESP product range, enabling end-of-life module swap without replacing the base unit and reducing both downtime and waste. Together, ABB's accessories make it straightforward to build a correctly specified, standards-compliant and maintainable surge protection system for any application.

KEY FEATURES AND BENEFITS

<p>Many of ABB's Furse surge protection accessories are designed and manufactured at the Furse facility in Nottingham, United Kingdom, applying the same rigorous quality standards as the Furse ESP SPD range they are built to support. ABB offers a complete accessories portfolio that covers every stage of the SPD lifecycle from initial installation and commissioning through to routine maintenance and end-of-life module replacement.</p>

Reliable

<p>The ESP RDU remote display unit connects to the volt-free contact of all Furse power SPDs to provide clear two-LED status indication of full protection or no protection from outside the distribution panel, with integral fuse protection and a double-insulated, maintenance-free design.</p>

Comprehensive

<p>The accessories range covers IP56 to IP67 weatherproof enclosures in multiple sizes for data, signal and mains power SPDs, metallic enclosures for indoor DIN rail use, combined mounting and earthing kits, a remote display unit and a full range of pluggable replacement protection modules for every ESP series.</p>

Continuous operation

<p>Pluggable replacement protection modules, available for all ESP mains power, data, signal, photovoltaic, wind turbine and BESS SPD series, allow rapid end-of-life swap without replacing the base unit, minimizing system downtime and keeping surge protection continuously active.</p>

Ingress protection

<p>Weatherproof WBX enclosures rated from IP56 to IP67 are available in a full range of sizes to house mains power, data, signal and multi-function SPDs in outdoor, damp and industrial environments where standard indoor IP20 distribution boards are not suitable.</p>

Monitorable

<p>The ESP RDU remote display unit can be independently mounted at any visible position on a distribution panel door and connected via interposing relays to a building management system or SCADA platform for remote SPD health monitoring across a site.</p>

Sustainable

<p>Genuine Furse pluggable replacement modules are keyed to prevent incorrect insertion and allow the base unit to remain in service for its full operational lifetime, reducing waste and lowering the total environmental footprint of the surge protection installation.</p>

Compliant

<p>Certifications include IEC/BS EN 62305, IEC 60529 (IP ratings from IP20 to IP67), IEC 61554 (DIN 72x36 mm panel cut-out format for the ESP RDU) and BS 7671.</p>
