Product Features
Technical Overview
This surge suppressor operates with 14V input and provides regulated 14V DC output, specifically designed for datacommunication circuits that require consistent low-voltage power. The terminal block connection ensures secure wiring without the risk of accidental disconnection that can occur with plug-style connectors.
The unit's protection circuitry is optimized for communication lines, filtering transient voltage spikes that commonly occur in power distribution networks. This prevents data corruption and hardware damage in connected communication devices.
This section brings together practical product details such as Plug/Connector Type, Dataline Protection, Input Voltage, Output Voltage, so buyers can judge configuration, deployment fit, and day-to-day suitability with less guesswork.
Key Product Advantages
The DTK-4LVLPX provides dedicated surge protection for 14V DC communication systems with several distinct advantages over generic protection devices.
Precision Voltage Matching
Maintains exact 14V input to 14V DC output conversion without voltage drop or fluctuation, ensuring connected communication equipment receives stable power within specification.
- 14V input matches 14V DC output
- Prevents under-voltage conditions
- Maintains communication signal integrity
Secure Terminal Connection
Terminal block design provides permanent, vibration-resistant connections that won't loosen over time, unlike plug-style connectors that can work loose in industrial environments.
- Screw-terminal security
- No accidental disconnection
- Suitable for permanent installations
Extended Protection Coverage
Backed by a 10-year limited warranty, this surge suppressor offers long-term reliability for critical communication infrastructure where downtime must be minimized.

FAQ
What input voltage does this surge suppressor require?
The DITEK DTK-4LVLPX requires 14V input voltage. It is specifically designed to protect equipment operating on 14V circuits, maintaining that exact voltage as regulated 14V DC output to connected devices.
What type of connector does this surge suppressor use?
This surge suppressor uses a terminal block connector rather than conventional plug outlets. The terminal block allows for permanent, secure wiring connections that are less likely to loosen over time compared to plug-style connectors, making it ideal for fixed installations.
What applications is this surge suppressor designed for?
The DTK-4LVLPX is designed for datacommunication applications that require 14V DC power protection. Typical uses include industrial control systems, building automation networks, security system communications, and telecommunications equipment operating on 14V DC circuits.
What are the physical dimensions of this surge suppressor?
The surge suppressor measures 1.60 inches in height, 3 inches in width, and 1.60 inches in depth (40.64 × 76.20 × 40.64 mm). This compact form factor allows installation in space-constrained environments like equipment panels and control enclosures.
Is this surge suppressor TAA compliant?
Yes, the DITEK DTK-4LVLPX is TAA compliant. This means it meets the requirements of the Trade Agreements Act, making it suitable for procurement by U.S. government agencies and contractors who must comply with TAA regulations.
What warranty coverage does this surge suppressor include?
The DTK-4LVLPX comes with a 10-year limited warranty. This extended warranty period provides long-term protection for your investment and reflects the product's durability and reliability in protecting critical communication equipment.
