FPNO-21

The ABB FPNO-21 is an overvoltage protection device designed for sensitive measuring and control circuits. Specifically, it is a combined voltage limiter that safeguards instrumentation and low-voltage control lines (such as 4-20 mA, 0-10 V signals, or telecom/data lines) against transient overvoltages induced by lightning strikes, switching operations, or electrostatic discharge.
