With the acceleration of the digital transformation of industrial enterprises, Ethernet technology is more and more widely used in the industrial field. Recently, the central control technology successfully took the lead in developing the S-60-L2 Pro surge protector that meets the APL (Advanced Physical Layer) standard, marking the breakthrough progress of central control technology in the field of industrial Ethernet technology application.

APL is an advanced Ethernet physical layer designed for industrial environments, which uses a two-wire 10Mbps communication rate, a maximum communication distance of 1000 meters, and supports loop power supply, which is ideal for industrial Ethernet deployment, especially for complex environments in the process industry.

Surge protector S-60-L2 Pro
The S-60-L2 Pro surge protector is based on the technical characteristics of APL. It has excellent lightning protection performance, and the maximum discharge current is Imax (8/20μs) up to 20kA, which can effectively resist lightning strikes and operating overvoltage and other safety threats. In addition, the surge protector features high bandwidth and low insertion loss, ensuring a stable APL communication rate of up to 10Mbps. Its low wire resistance design supports overcurrent capacity up to 1.25A@60VDC, and supports online hot swap replacement of surge protection modules, which greatly improves its reliability and convenience in industrial environments.

Surge protector S-60-L2 Pro

The surge protector S-60-L2 Pro has successfully obtained a number of authoritative certifications such as internal safety certification, no spark certification and China Mandatory Product Certification (CCC), and can be safely installed in dangerous areas such as Zone 0, Zone 1 and Zone 2, which can provide reliable protection in extremely dangerous environments and provide a solid barrier for the normal operation of industrial production processes.
Typical application of surge protector S-60-L2 Pro
For APL network topologies, the surge protector S-60-L2 Pro has excellent compatibility and a wide range of application scenarios, not only between APL meters and APL field switches, but also between APL field switches (APL SmartEIO) and APL power switches.

With the continuous development of lightning protection technology and the gradual improvement of industry lightning protection specifications, the application range of surge protection devices will be more extensive. The launch of the surge protector S-60-L2 Pro will also provide more support and guarantee for the stable operation of industrial production processes.

As a leading enterprise in the field of process industry intelligent manufacturing, Zhongcong Technology will continue to deepen research and development and launch more innovative products, aiming to fully meet the needs of industrial enterprises for safe and stable production.
