Abstract: The invention relates to an overvoltage protection arrangement for information and telecommunication technology, consisting of a housing with means formed on the housing base for mounting top-hat rails, overvoltage protection elements which can be found in the housing, electric connection means, and at least one circuit board as a wiring support for the overvoltage protection elements. When viewed laterally, the housing is designed approximately in the shape of a T standing on its head and has a beam-shaped main part with a protruding head part, wherein the electric connection means can be accessed and actuated via the upper face of the beam-shaped main part.

Abstract: The invention relates to a circuit assembly for the state monitoring and logging of overvoltage protection devices or overvoltage protection systems by means of pulse current monitoring, comprising at least one passive RFID transponder having an inductively coupled voltage supply, wherein in the case of an event of the overvoltage protection device or the overvoltage protection system, the RFID transponder antenna circuit is influenced, in particular interrupted, short circuited, or detuned, so that disturbance processes can be identified.

Abstract: The invention relates to a circuit arrangement for surge protection in DC supply circuits of electronic components or devices, in particular telecommunication devices such as transmitting and receiving antennas and/or mobile radio systems. The circuit consists of a coarse protection series circuit comprising spark gaps or gas discharge tubes between the input terminals and of capacitors connected in parallel to the spark gaps or gas discharge tubes. Furthermore, at least one fine protection element is provided between the output terminals, and a decoupling impedance is mounted between the coarse protection series circuit and the fine protection element.

Abstract: The invention relates to a multi-staged overvoltage protection circuit, in particular for information-technology systems, comprising at least one coarse protection element and at least one fine protection element, wherein the at least one fine protection element can be activated by a triggering device depending on a threshold. According to the invention, the applied operating voltage is led to an evaluation device, which generates a reference voltage. Also provided is an evaluation unit, firstly for checking to see whether the current operating voltage is above the reference voltage, secondly for checking to see whether the voltage excess exceeds a previously determined level, and thirdly for establishing whether the rate of change of the operating voltage is greater than another previously determined value so that a transient overvoltage exists, wherein the triggering device then receives an activation signal from the evaluation device.
