    ABOUT SPD PROTECTION

    Reliable surge protection for critical AV systems.

    The SPD series provides robust, stand-alone surge protection designed to integrate seamlessly with your power infrastructure and shield valuable electronics.

    LynTec SPD modules are engineered specifically for the demands of professional audio, video, and lighting systems. Unlike generic surge protectors, our units are designed to handle the electrical environment of performance venues, broadcast facilities, and large-scale installations. They provide a critical layer of defense against power surges and transient voltage, protecting downstream equipment like digital processors, amplifiers, and LED controllers from costly damage.

    Easy to install and built for long-term reliability, the SPD series ensures your systems remain operational and your investment is secure. It is a fundamental component of a comprehensive and resilient power control infrastructure.

    WHY IT MATTERS

    Engineered for system-wide peace of mind.

    01

    Application-specific protection for sensitive gear.

    Our SPDs feature fast-clamping technology and high joule ratings specifically chosen to protect sensitive digital AV and lighting electronics. This provides superior protection compared to general-purpose surge suppressors.
    02

    Designed for simple integration and service.

    With a compact form factor and straightforward wiring, SPD units are designed for quick installation within or alongside LynTec panels. This simplifies building a complete and protected power chain.
    03

    Built for safety and long-term reliability.

    Every unit is UL listed and rigorously tested to meet stringent safety and performance standards. Robust construction ensures dependable protection year after year, safeguarding your critical infrastructure from unpredictable power events.
    FAQ

    Your questions, answered.

    Common questions about implementing surge protection in professional installations.
    Are LynTec SPD units UL listed for compliance?

    Yes, all LynTec SPD units are UL listed and have been rigorously tested to meet strict safety and performance standards. This certification provides confidence that the devices are engineered for safe, reliable operation in professional environments, simplifying the specification and inspection process for your projects.

    Can I add an SPD to an existing LynTec panel installation?

    Yes. The SPD series is designed as a stand-alone module, making it simple to retrofit into existing installations. An SPD can be easily integrated into your current LynTec panels to add a critical layer of surge protection. This is an efficient way to enhance the resilience of a system that is already in the field, protecting your original investment.

    Does the SQ Series provide surge protection?

    The primary function of the SQ Series is power sequencing. It is designed to protect equipment from damage caused by inrush current during startup and shutdown procedures.

    It does not include integrated surge protection. For applications that require protection from voltage surges and spikes, a separate Surge Protective Device (SPD) should be installed on the circuit feeding the SQ unit.

    How do I select the right SPD for my system?

    Selecting the correct SPD depends on your system’s electrical service, including the voltage and phase configuration (e.g., 120V single-phase, 208V three-phase). It is critical to match the SPD’s specifications to the panel it will protect.

    Our team can help you analyze your power infrastructure and specify the appropriate SPD model to ensure optimal protection for your sensitive downstream audio, video, and lighting equipment.

    What is the difference between an SPD and a UPS?

    An SPD and a UPS serve different but complementary roles in a complete power protection strategy. An SPD (Surge Protective Device) is designed to protect equipment from very short, high-energy events like voltage spikes or surges.

    A UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) provides continuous power during brownouts or complete outages using a battery. For maximum protection, an SPD should be installed upstream to protect both the UPS and the connected equipment from damaging surges.

    Where are LynTec SPD units physically installed?

    LynTec SPD modules are designed for flexible installation. Their compact form factor and straightforward wiring allow them to be mounted either directly within a LynTec power control panel or alongside it. This simplifies the process of integrating robust surge protection into new or existing power infrastructure without requiring significant extra space.

    Where does rack-level power protection fit in a facility-wide strategy?

    Rack-level protection is a crucial final defense for sensitive equipment. We recommend a layered approach where panel-level Surge Protective Devices (SPDs) handle large external surges at the service entrance. Rack-mount conditioners like the RX series then provide fine-tuned filtration and clamping right at the equipment. This combination ensures comprehensive protection from both external and internal electrical events for maximum system reliability.

    Why use a LynTec SPD over a generic surge protector?

    Unlike general-purpose surge protectors, LynTec SPDs are engineered specifically for the demands of professional AV and lighting systems. They feature fast-clamping technology and high joule ratings selected to safeguard sensitive digital electronics like processors, amplifiers, and LED video walls from damaging electrical transients.

    This application-specific design provides a superior level of protection, ensuring the reliability and longevity of your critical system components.
