Description
The **Protektor PARP-220** is a voltage protector for industrial refrigeration that operates at **220 VAC / 60 Hz** and handles up to **30 A**, designed to shield your equipment from power grid fluctuations in Panama. With a built-in surge suppressor of **525 J @ 470 V** and a start-up delay of **3 minutes**, it protects compressors up to **3 HP** and equipment up to **48000 BTU**. ## For your home If you have an air conditioner, freezer or cold room at home, in a business or commercial space, the PARP-220 prevents costly damage when the power "drops" or "surges." It automatically disconnects the equipment when voltage falls to **190 VAC** or rises to **250 VAC**, and waits **3 minutes** before re-energizing the compressor to protect it from abrupt starts. The **525 J** surge suppressor absorbs surges from lightning strikes or grid faults, which is very common during Panama's rainy season. It is a low-cost investment that can save you the repair or replacement of a compressor. ## For installers The PARP-220 uses **L1/L2 (line and phase) plus ground** wiring, with **terminal-block input and output** for a tidy, safe connection. It is calibrated for a maximum current of **30 A** and motors up to **3 HP**, with undervoltage disconnection at **190 VAC** and overvoltage disconnection at **250 VAC**. The fixed **3-minute** delay protects the compressor against short cycling, and the **525 J @ 470 V** surge suppression adds a layer of protection against transients. Its application range covers refrigeration systems up to **48000 BTU**, ideal for high-capacity residential and light commercial installations. **Highlights:** - Operation at **220 VAC / 60 Hz** with support up to **30 A**. - Protects equipment up to **48000 BTU** and compressors up to **3 HP**. - Undervoltage disconnection at **190 VAC** and overvoltage disconnection at **250 VAC**. - **3-minute** start-up delay to protect the compressor. - Built-in surge suppressor of **525 J @ 470 V**. - **L1/L2 + ground** wiring with terminal-block input and output.
Frequently asked questions
What equipment can the Protektor PARP-220 protect?
It is designed for 220 VAC refrigeration equipment up to 48000 BTU and compressors up to 3 HP, such as air conditioners, freezers and cold rooms in residential or light commercial settings.
At what voltages does it disconnect the equipment?
It automatically disconnects when voltage drops to 190 VAC or rises to 250 VAC, protecting the compressor from dangerous grid conditions.
Why does it have a 3-minute delay?
The 3-minute delay prevents the compressor from starting immediately after an outage or fluctuation, preventing damage from abrupt starts and short cycling.
Does it include surge protection?
Yes, it features a built-in 525 J @ 470 V surge suppressor that absorbs transients caused by lightning or power grid faults.
How is the PARP-220 connected?
It connects with L1/L2 (line and phase) plus ground wiring, via terminal-block input and output, supporting a maximum current of 30 A at 60 Hz.
Is it suitable for a 3 HP compressor?
Yes, it supports motors up to 3 HP and a maximum current of 30 A, ideal for higher-capacity refrigeration systems.
