XThe POLIM®-D is only to be used when it is in technically sound condition, for

the intended purpose, and with safety and the possible dangers in mind while

observing the operating instructions.

XKeep the operating instructions intact and fully readable, and store them in

such a way that they are accessible to operating personnel at all times.

XDecommission and replace overloaded or damaged POLIM®-D units.

2.2.2. Personnel-related measures

XTrain personnel in professional and safe working with high-voltage technology.

XTrain and instruct personnel in working on the POLIM®-D using the operating

instructions.

only work with the POLIM®-D under constant supervision by an experienced

high-voltage technology professional.

2.2.3. Organisational measures

XObserve all safety- and danger-related information regarding the POLIM®-D.

XThe safety rules of the owner of the high- and medium-voltage system and all

regulations of the respective national safety authorities are to be observed.

XOnly trained and instructed professionals may be authorised.

XClearly assign areas of responsibility for working with the POLIM®-D. Make

them known and adhere to them.

XOnly personnel who have read and understood the operating instructions, es-

pecially the "Basic safety precautions" section may be allowed to carry out ac-

tivities with the POLIM®-D.

3. DESCRIPTION

3.1. Intended use

The POLIM®-D is a surge arrester intended for use in high- and medium-voltage

applications. Surge arresters protect the insulation of high voltage and medium

voltage devices against unacceptable overvoltages which are caused by lightning

or switching operations.

The manufacturer is not liable for resulting damages from further, unintended use.

The operator accepts all responsibility for using the POLIM®-D outside of its in-

tended application range as specified in this document.

3.2. Structure and function

The POLIM®-D surge arrester is constructed from serially connected, non-linear

metal-oxide (MO) resistors. These MO resistors have an extremely non-linear re-

sistance property. At the maximum operating voltage of Uc, only a small capacitive

current will flow in the mA range. With an increase in voltage, the MO resistors en-

ter a highly-conductive state practically without delay. Thus any further increase in

voltage is limited to the specified residual voltage values. After the decline of the

overvoltage the arrester immediately turns back to the non- or slightly-conductive

state. The MO arrester converts the energy of the surge into heat, which it trans-

fers to the surrounding air.

The stack of MO resistors and connection equipment is held together with loops

made of fiberglass-reinforced plastic. The directly molded silicone housing protects

it from all environmental and weather influences. This design has proven to be the

best solution in every environment for years.

The POLIM®-D surge arrester is optionally equipped with a disconnecting device

(disconnector). This device disconnects the POLIM®-D surge arrester from the

power network, when it has been overloaded and destroyed. Disconnecting is

done by firing of a small propellant charge in the disconnecting device.

The POLIM®-D is especially suited for overvoltage protection of:

•transformers

•cables

•other medium-voltage apparatuses and systems

4. TRANSPORTATION, UNPACKING AND STORAGE

Transportation

CAUTION

Surge arresters not secured during transportation

Damage to surge arresters that have fallen during transport.

XSecure surge arresters against sliding or falling before transportation.

XObserve safety precautions printed on the packaging for proper handling

during transportation and storage.

XDon’t expose disconnectors or surge arresters with equipped disconnecting

devices to temperatures above +60°C .

Unpacking

The surge arresters provided are packaged in stable cardboard boxes or wooden

crates. The accessories, packaged in plastic bags, are either included in the carton

or wooden crate or supplied separately in case of large quantities.

The surge arresters are supplied with accessories installed, unless specifically or-

dered otherwise. The routine test reports for the final electrical inspection are in-

cluded in the packaging material.

XAfter receiving the shipment, compare the order and delivery documents im-

mediately to check for completeness and accuracy of the shipment. In case of

incompleteness or deviations, inform the supplier and shipper immediately.

WARNING

Damaged surge arresters

Material damage and personal injury due to the installation and commissioning of

damaged surge arresters.

:Do not use damaged surge arresters.

XExamine shipment immediately to check for damage.

XNotify the insurance company, the shipper and the supplier of the damage

immediately and create a damage log.

Storage

The original packaging materials can be used for storage.

XStore surge arresters in a well-ventilated, clean room.

XRemove plastic film to prevent the formation of condensation water.

XStorage temperature: -40 .. 70°C

XDon’t expose disconnectors or surge arresters with equipped disconnecting

devices to temperatures above +60°C.

5. COMMISSIONING

5.1. Safety

DANGER

System uses high voltage

Death, serious bodily harm and damage to the switching gear may result from an

electric shock.

XAllow only authorised professionals to perform work on the surge arrester.

XObserve the safety rules of EN 50110-1 before working on the system:

– Disconnect the system from the power supply.

– Secure the system against being switched on again.

– Ensure that the system is de-energised.

– Earth the system and short-circuit it.

– Cover or cordon off neighbouring energised parts.

5.2. Electrical check before commissioning

Each surge arrester is tested by the manufacturer. The routine test report is in-

cluded with the packaging. Additional electrical testing before commissioning is not

necessary.

5.3. Installation location and protective distance

DANGER

Danger of fire and injury via arc with overloading of the surge ar-

rester and when disconnecting device is disconnecting the surge

arrester

Ignition of flammable materials by an arc and flying burning parts.

XDo not store flammable materials near the surge arrester.

XWhen working near the surge arrester, do not wear easily flammable clothing.

Surge arresters only protect medium-voltage apparatuses when they are located

within the protective distance The protective distance is only a few meters.

XAlways mount surge arresters as close as possible to the apparatus to be pro-

tected within the protective distance. The length of the connecting cables are

decisive here.

XIn cases of doubt, calculate the protective distance according to the formulas

in the "Application guidelines".

XUse POLIM®-D surge arrester equipped with a disconnecting device in out-

door installations, only.
