Casing
The Philips Xtreme Surge Protector I is suitable for
use in all outdoor Insulation Class I luminaires.
Thermally protected Voltage Dependent Resistors
(VDR) and surge arresters are used internally for
surge protection. The design assures good thermal
stability of the Xtreme SPD over lifetime and a low
case temperature even if the device is used beyond
its end of life.
The Xtreme SPD has been tested for thermal stability
and is compliant with standards IEC/EN61643-11.
Installation
The Xtreme SPD is released as a built-in device and
is intended for mounting inside a luminaire. Remote
mounting of the Xtreme SPD such as in a pole or
switching cabinet is not recommended since it may
reduce its surge protection effectiveness and it may
be subject to ingress of water and dirt.
On the label you will find an arrow indicating the
mounting position of the product. It is important to
mount the device with the connection terminals
facing downward to prevent any damage resulting
from water entering the product.
CAD drawings
3D CAD drawings are available on
www.philips.com/technology or available
via your local sales representative.
SPD connections
The Xtreme Surge Protector is equipped with push-in
connectors and will accept both solid-core and
stranded wires. For more wiring details please check
the datasheet.
The SPD should be connected as illustrated on the
left in order to achieve optimal surge protection.
Failure indicator
The Xtreme SPD is equipped with an optical failure
indicator by means of a green indicator light. If mains
voltage is applied and the indicator light is off then
the Xtreme SPD needs to be replaced.
