Looking for More Power? Check Out the New Lynx Shunt VE.Can (M10)
We are excited to introduce the new Lynx Shunt VE.Can (M10), model LYN040102110, which brings significant improvements over the previous M8 version.
As part of our commitment to enhancing the Lynx product range, this upgrade features M10 connections, offering a stronger and more durable connection compared to the M8 standard.
Additionally, this version includes a small busbar, ideal for systems requiring a higher-rated fuse than the standard 325A CNN fuse. This allows for the main fuse to be located externally, providing greater flexibility for larger systems. The Lynx Shunt M10 now supports external fuses, including CNN fuses from 35A to 800A, as well as ANL fuses.
