Strategie ochrony przed przepięciami w centrach danych i szafach IT

Alt-text: Server racks in a modern data center with controlled lighting and secure enclosures

In modern data centers, transient voltage surge protector (TVSS) devices are vital for safeguarding sensitive equipment. These short, unexpected voltage spikes—often caused by lightning, switching events, or generator transfers—can corrupt data or damage servers in microseconds.

TOSUNlux provides high-performance Surge Protective Devices (SPDs) that enable a full, end-to-end power protection strategy from a single trusted manufacturer—ideal for IT racks, server rooms, and overall data center environments.

Understanding Transient Voltage Protection

Transient voltage surge protectors detect voltage spikes and instantly shunt them away via MOVs, TVS diodes, or gas discharge tubes, clamping energy before it reaches your equipment . They typically react in nanoseconds—fast enough to shield high-speed data electronics.

Key protection points include:

• Point-of-entry SPDs: Installed at utility feed or automatic transfer switch.
• Panel-level SPDs: Protects distribution board from internal surges.
• Rack-mounted SPDs: Placed close to critical servers and switches.

Layered SPD placement ensures every potential entry point for transient surges is covered.

Power Conditioner Surge Protector and Voltage Regulator

A power conditioner combines surge protection with voltage regulation and line noise filtering. It smooths out brownouts, spikes, and electrical interference while delivering clean, stable power.

A well-designed power conditioner surge protector and voltage regulator keeps output voltage within safe ranges, suppresses surges, and filters out electrical noise. This is especially useful in racks running sensitive servers or switching hardware where both voltage consistency and surge protection matter. 

DC Voltage Surge Protector

Many IT systems use DC power—especially telecom racks and PoE networks. A DC voltage surge protector safeguards these circuits from transient spikes.

Components like TVS diodes, rated to clamp in under 1 ps, guard against fast spikes caused by switching or inductive discharges. Properly rated DC SPDs in telecom/PoE panels protect blade servers and networking hardware.

High Voltage Surge Protector

In data centers, switching between utility and generator power can send high voltage transients through the system. These surges can exceed home-level spikes (thousands of volts).

Heavy-duty SPDs (Type 1 or 2) that handle higher voltages and currents are essential at:

• Service entrance panels
• Generator and ATS inputs:  This prevents damage during power transfers

Best Practices for Data Center Protection

Implementing transient voltage protection effectively means combining strategies:

• Multi-level SPD deployment
  Entry-point SPDs at service meter

• PDU or panel SPDs
• Rack-mounted SPDs near critical equipment: This layered structure reduces residual transient energy as it travels through the power system

• Add power conditioning as needed
  Use power conditioner surge protector and voltage regulator combos for sensitive hardware that needs steady voltage plus surge defense.
• Include DC protection
  Add dc voltage surge protector in PoE or telecom racks to protect DC-bus circuits.
• Install high voltage devices
  Use HV surge protectors at generator-ATS interfaces to catch larger transients from switching operations.
