Arc Guard SystemTM TVOC-2 A protection device for reliable safety

A flexible and intelligent solution for you and your business safety.

ABB is leader in arc guard technology since 35 years. Experience from the highly appreciated TVOC is built into the new TVOC-2, a product for protection of humans and property when having an electric arc.
Reliability Certified according to functional safety (SIL 2) standard. Over 35 years of experience in Arc Guard Systems. Pre-calibrated optical sensors. Flexibility HMI can be mounted on the panel-door. Expand with up to 30 optical sensors. Configure the system according to various needs. Simplicity User-friendly start-up menu. DIN-Rail or wall-mounted. Easy to expand as the switchgear grows. HMI (Human Machine Interface)
