ABB RT5/150 Surge Suppressor 1SBN050020R1003 – 77–150V DC
The ABB RT5/150 (1SBN050020R1003) is a 77–150V DC transil diode surge suppressor for compatible ABB contactors and contactor relays. It provides fast overvoltage suppression, reduces coil switching surges and clips directly onto the contactor without increasing the overall device dimensions.
Description
The ABB RT5/150 (1SBN050020R1003) is a transil diode surge suppressor designed for use with DC-operated conventional contactors and contactor relays having a rated control circuit voltage between 77 and 150V DC. It helps reduce overvoltage peaks generated when an inductive contactor coil is switched off.
When a contactor coil is energized, electromagnetic energy is stored in the coil. When the coil is de-energized, this stored energy can produce a high-voltage surge. The ABB RT5/150 surge suppressor limits these voltage peaks and helps reduce electrical interference and potential stress on connected electronic components.
The RT5/150 uses a transil diode suppression technology and provides fast clipping of steep voltage fronts and high-frequency components. ABB describes the device as a simple, reliable and unpolarized suppression solution with good energy absorption and no operating delay.
Installation is straightforward because the RT5/150 surge suppressor clips directly onto the contactor or contactor relay base. Its mounting arrangement is designed to avoid increasing the overall dimensions of the contactor assembly.
The ABB 1SBN050020R1003 is part of ABB’s surge suppressor accessories for contactors, making it suitable for protecting DC contactor coils in industrial control and motor-control applications. ABB lists it for compatible contactor families including AL9…AL40 and related contactor ranges.
