Discover the Power of the Victron Lynx DC Distribution System
At Zarcillo Smartmarine we are always looking for the best solutions for your energy management on board. Victron Lynx system is such a solution: a modular, safe and well-organized system that forms the core of a reliable DC system. Although this system may not be known to everyone, we cannot emphasize enough how valuable it is. Many people see the price as an obstacle, but what they often do not realize is that with separate components you ultimately end up with the same amount. With the Lynx system, however, you not only get convenience, but also increased safety and a neat, well-organized installation.
Let's dive into what it Victron Lynx system is, why it is a fantastic solution for your onboard energy needs and how Smartmarine can help you make the best choice.
What is it Victron Lynx system?
The Lynx system is a complete DC distribution rail (busbar) that ensures that your energy infrastructure is organized, safe and efficient.
This system combicombines positive and negative busbars into one neat unit, making installation and maintenance much easier. Where traditional mega fuse holders often struggle to connect larger cables, the Lynx offers a foolproof solution by ensuring an excellent fit and connection.
Why choose the Lynx system?
The Lynx system offers a range of benefits that not only contribute to the ease of use, but also to the safety and sustainability of your energy system. Here are some of the key benefits:
1. Modular design for easy expansion
Whether you want to start a small system or have a large, complex installation, the Lynx system easily adapts to your needs. You can start with basic components such as the Lynx Power In, and later expand with the Lynx Distributor, Lynx Smart BMS, or other modules. This modular design means you are not stuck with one size, but can build your system as needed.
2. Neat and organized cabling
A well-organized system not only looks professional, it also increases safety and makes maintenance much easier. With clear connection points for batteries, chargers and other DC devices, the Lynx system ensures a clear installation. No tangle of cables, but a neat and organized system that is easy to understand and manage.
3. Real-time monitoring and control
If you connect the system to a Victron GX device like the Cerbo GX, you always have real-time insight into your energy consumption and battery status. You can immediately see where any problems are and can take preventive measures before something goes wrong. This is especially useful for long-term maintenance and optimizing the performance of your system.
4. Extensive security of your system
You want your system to always be safe, especially on the water where power failures can be disastrous. The Lynx system offers built-in fuses and other protection mechanisms that prevent short circuits, overloads and other power problems. The Lynx Distributor is equipped with indicator lights that let you know immediately if a fuse has blown, so you can take action quickly. (Lynx Shunt required)
5. Automated battery management
With the Lynx Smart BMS (Battery Management System) allows you to manage your batteries fully automatically. The system prevents deep discharges and overloads, which significantly extends the life of your batteries. This means less maintenance, lower costs and a better performance of your entire system.
6. Perfect integration with Victron-Products
The Lynx system is fully integrated with other Victron-products such as inverters, chargers and batteries. This gives you an all-in-one solution that is not only easy to install, but also works seamlessly with the rest of your energy system.
The three core models of the Lynx system
1. Lynx Power In
This is the basic version of the Lynx system, consisting of two busbars for positive and negative connections. It is perfect for those who want a simple, clear solution and can easily be expanded later.
2. Lynx Distributor
The most popular module within the Lynx series. This model contains fuses for each connected cable, and indicator lights that warn you immediately when a fuse blows. This makes troubleshooting quick and easy, without having to search for which fuse is defective yourself.
3. Lynx Distributor T-Class
Specifically designed for situations where larger fuses are required such as lithium. This model offers the same benefits as the Lynx Distributor but with extra space for larger T-class fuses.
Additional modules for advanced functionality
Lynx Smart BMS
This advanced battery management system has been specially developed for the Victron Lithium battery Smart-series. It ensures optimum performance of your batteries and offers built-in protection and monitoring. Available in 500A and 1000A versions, the Lynx Smart BMS provides real-time control via Bluetooth and GX devices, and uses a fail-safe mechanism for maximum safety.
Lynx Shunt VE.Can
De Lynx Shunt provides accurate battery monitoring with a built-in fuse holder and can easily exchange data with GX devices. This makes it the perfect addition to your energy system, allowing you to always stay informed about your battery performance and power consumption.
