• Security and access control systems
• AV installations and signal-powered devices
• Remote power distribution in cabinets and enclosures

Key specifications

• Protection channels: 8 DC lines
• Nominal DC voltage range: 12–24 V
• Compatibility: designed for use in installations with 230 V AC infrastructure
• Form factor: compact module suitable for cabinet or rack mounting
• Transient suppression: multi-line surge protection for line-level transients

How to use

Install the SurgeX Squid module inline with the DC distribution lines you wish to protect, following standard wiring practices and safety procedures. Connect each protected DC line to the corresponding input and output terminals according to the installation diagram provided by the manufacturer, and ensure proper grounding of the protective device to the system earth. Verify the nominal system voltage is within the 12–24 V DC range before energizing the circuit. After installation, power up the system and confirm normal operation of protected equipment and status indicators where available.

Recommendations

Place the module close to the distribution point or protected equipment to minimize unprotected cable length. Maintain proper earthing and periodic visual inspection of connections; replace the module if it shows signs of damage or evident surge event stress. Use within specified voltage ranges and in accordance with applicable electrical codes and manufacturer installation guidelines to ensure effective protection.
