OVERVOLTAGE PROTECTION

Protection for your devices
Power surges can be caused by thunderstorms, switching operations, or disturbances in the power grid. Even very short voltage spikes can damage sensitive IT and electronic devices, cause malfunctions, or lead to data loss.
Our 19" PDUs are optionally available with integrated surge protection. This protects connected devices directly at the power distribution point and can be combined with other functions such as mains filters, switches, or measurement functions.
Integrated protection
The surge protection is integrated directly into the PDU. The power strip can be connected to the existing power supply as usual – without any additional devices in the rack.
Thanks to the modular design, the socket type, number of sockets, connection and other functions can be selected to suit the application.
Possible combinations:
Surge protection + mains filter
Surge protection + switch
Overvoltage protection + operating indicator
