Protection device for electronic installations against transients generated by phenomena affecting the environment outside of the installation

摘要

The protection device applies to an installation including a rack in which are engaged modular functional elements (M1, M2, M3) interconnected by virtue of an interconnection circuit (4) provided in the back of the rack. It involves a connector element (7) mounted on the rack, the pins of which are linked electrically to conductors of the interconnection circuit (4) and a protection module comprising a box housing protection circuits linked to connection members of a second connector element able to be connected to the first connector element (7) so as to provide a disconnectable electrical link between the conductors and the corresponding protection circuits. The invention applies especially to protection of electronic installations situated on board an aircraft. IMAGE
