NDS1.1304 - Page 1 / 2 Technical Information Sheet TCP-2.5-40-230 Track circuit protector The Novaris TCP is a high energy surge protection device. It is designed speciÖcally for the protection of railway signaling track circuits. It may also be used for any signaling application requiring high energy primary protection with line current up to 2.5A. Failsafe design – external alarm. Surge protection is provided by a high energy three terminal gas discharge tube with a common mode rating of 40kA. The TCP incorporates an indicating fuse, monitoring the integrity of the GDT. Should this fuse trip due to an excessive surge current a red indicator will appear and a normally closed alarm contact will open providing a means for remote monitoring. This design prevents a permanent short circuit to earth. This is important in many critical applications, particularly railway signaling. Multistage protection. Following the primary GDT is a series coordinating impedance in each signal leg. This can coordinate with secondary protection contained within the equipment to be protected or the TCP can stand alone. Earthing options. The TCP plugs into a DIN rail mounted base. All protection components are contained within the removable cap. As well as separate earth terminals, the metallic DIN rail clamp provides a low impedance connection to earth via the DIN rail.
