The PEPPERL+FUCHS FS-LB-I Surge Protection Barrier is a 1-channel field mount module designed to protect sensitive field instruments and transmitters from induced transients caused by lightning strokes, switching impulses, and other electrical disturbances.
| Mounting Type | Field mount module with M20 x 1.5 thread |
| Housing Material | Stainless steel |
| Max. Surge Current (8/20 µs) | 20 kA |
| Isolation from Earth | 500 V |
| Hazardous Area Rating | Suitable for hazardous areas |
| Safety Integrity Level | Up to SIL 3 according to IEC/EN 61508 |
This surge protection barrier limits induced transients by diverting transient current to ground and limiting signal line voltage to safe levels during surge events. It provides 85 V line-to-line and 500 V line-to-ground clamping voltage for protected instruments.
FS-LB-I is widely used in industrial automation, process control systems and hazardous area facilities including:
Industries served: Oil & gas, chemical, metallurgy, pharmaceutical, manufacturing, and other industries requiring high safety standards and stable signal transmission.
FS-LB-I delivers professional surge protection with high reliability and easy installation. It reduces equipment failure rates, lowers maintenance costs and improves overall system stability. With superior performance and cost-effective design, FS-LB-I is an ideal safety solution for industrial automation and process control systems worldwide.
