Altronix LPD7 Concise Descriptor
Overview
The Altronix LPD7 is a low-power disconnect module designed to protect sensitive surveillance equipment from overcurrent conditions. It acts as a failsafe, interrupting power to connected devices when current draw exceeds a safe threshold, thereby preventing damage to cameras, encoders, or other network edge devices. This module is critical for maintaining system integrity in installations where power fluctuations or device failures could otherwise cascade into widespread equipment damage. Its compact form factor allows for integration into various power distribution enclosures.
Compatibility
The LPD7 is engineered for use with Altronix power distribution and management systems. It is specifically designed to interface with Altronix power supplies and distribution boards that provide a regulated 12VDC or 24VDC output. While not tied to specific camera models, its function is to protect any 12VDC or 24VDC powered surveillance device connected to an Altronix power system. Consult Altronix documentation for specific power supply series compatibility.
Installation Notes
Installation requires wiring the module in series with the power feed to the protected device(s). Ensure the total continuous current draw of the connected equipment does not exceed the module's rated limit. The module should be installed in a location protected from environmental extremes, typically within a controlled enclosure. Proper termination of input and output power leads is essential for reliable operation.
