Strikesorb Series

Strikesorb 80

Raycap Strikesorb® 80 – the highest capacity industrial Surge Protective Device (SPD) in the Strikesorb series. With an impulse current withstand capability of up to 200 kA in an 8/20 µs waveform, it provides protection without module degradation in sites with the highest lightning risk.

Strikesorb® 80 – the highest capacity model in the Strikesorb series, designed for critical facility protection against lightning and grid-induced overvoltage surges. Classified under IEC 61643-11, the product is also fully recognized under UL 1449 5th Edition. Its maximum impulse current withstand capability, up to 200 kA in an 8/20 µs waveform, ensures superior performance at supply points with high short-circuit currents and heavy impulse loads.

The fundamental difference of Strikesorb technology lies in its continuous protection operation. While traditional varistor-based devices degrade with successive impulses and lose protection capability over time, Strikesorb 80 dissipates high-energy impulses without module degradation. Its fuse-less direct connection structure eliminates additional components and associated failure points in the protection path.

The device is designed without flammable, smoke-emitting, or explosive materials, and its fully sealed enclosure ensures reliable operation in dusty, humid, and harsh field conditions. Tested and certified according to international IEC and UL safety and performance standards. Based on years of field performance data, the expected service life exceeds 20 years, and all modules come with a 10-year limited lifetime warranty.
