About SurgeX

SurgeX is a trusted leader in surge protection, power conditioning, and power management systems for mission-critical electronics. Originally developed to maintain electric field stability during gel electrophoresis, SurgeX technology has evolved into a gold standard for protecting sensitive AV, IT, and industrial equipment from harmful AC surges, transients, and electrical noise.

Unlike conventional surge protectors, SurgeX uses patented Advanced Series Mode® technology to completely eliminate surge energy without producing ground contamination or common-mode disturbances. This ensures clean, uninterrupted power—a must for high-performance systems in healthcare, education, broadcasting, and commercial AV environments.

The SurgeX product line includes rack-mount units, standalone surge eliminators, UPS systems, sequencers, and remote power management platforms like Axess Elite and enVision IC. These solutions combine EMI/RFI filtration, inrush current elimination, and real-time diagnostics to help facilities monitor, manage, and protect their power infrastructure.

At Gross Automation, we proudly offer SurgeX products as part of our commitment to delivering reliable, high-performance power solutions. Whether you're safeguarding a control panel, AV rack, or medical device, our team can help you select the right SurgeX solution to ensure uptime, safety, and peace of mind.
