Davicom DVLD-1

The Davicom DVLD-1 lightning detector is designed to give advance warning of the presence and approach of potentially hazardous lightning activity in the vicinity of a transmission site. It uses a sophisticated statistical algorithm to analyze electromagnetic signals and to provide an estimation of the distance to a storm.

It can also reject potential man-made noise and interference. When connected to a Davicom Remote Monitoring and Control Unit, it can be used to switch to an auxiliary power source (UPS), temporarily shut down critical equipment or disconnect a phone line or an IP link during a thunderstorm.

• Max. Detection Radius: 40 km
• Detection steps: 14 steps from 40 km down to 1 km
• Lightning type: Cloud-to-Ground, Cloud-to-Cloud
