AFDD Schrack
An AFDD (Arc Fault Detection Device), such as those from Schrack, also known as an arc fault circuit interrupter (AFDD), is an advanced protective device that protects against electrical arc faults in electrical installations. These arc faults are caused by loose connections, damaged cables, or defective insulation, which can lead to sparking. The risk of an electrical fire is therefore increased if such arc faults go undetected.
AFDD technology from Schrack
Schrack Technik offers a wide range of high-quality AFDDs specifically designed for use in modern installations. Schrack's AFDD solutions combine arc fault protection with the functions of a miniature circuit breaker (MCB) and a residual current device (RCD/MCB). This ensures that the devices not only protect against arc faults but also reliably detect and interrupt overloads, short circuits, and fault currents.
Advantages of Schrack's AFDD solutions
-
Increased safety : Schrack AFDDs offer comprehensive protection against fires that can be caused by arc flashes. Especially in homes, public buildings, and industrial facilities, where faulty cable connections are common, these devices significantly minimize the risk of fire.
-
Early detection : The advanced technology in Schrack AFDDs detects arc faults at a very early stage and immediately disconnects the affected circuit. This significantly reduces the risk of fire and contributes to the safety of the electrical installation.
-
Combined protection functions : By integrating circuit protection and residual current protection functions into a single device, Schrack AFDDs offer comprehensive protection. This not only reduces the space required in the control cabinet, but also installation time and costs.
Application areas for AFDDs
Schrack AFDDs are particularly suitable for installations in residential buildings, offices, public facilities, and industrial plants. Especially in areas where highly flammable materials are present, such as wooden structures, or where sensitive electronics are present, Schrack AFDDs are an important addition to conventional electrical installations. These devices also provide extra safety in kindergartens, hospitals, and nursing homes, where the protection of residents is of paramount importance.
Ease of installation
Schrack AFDDs can be easily integrated into existing and new installations. Thanks to their compact design, they fit into standard distribution boxes and are easy to install. Electricians benefit from the quick installation and clear wiring, which reduces the potential for installation errors.
Technical reliability
Schrack places great emphasis on the quality and reliability of its products. The AFDDs undergo rigorous testing procedures to ensure they meet the highest safety standards.
