Furman M-8LX - Power Conditioner with Lights   Description A Merit Series Power Conditioner is the perfect low-cost AC power solution for any rack mount system. Install an M-8Lx into the top slot of your rack, and the eight switched outlets in the rear panel will power up and protect all your equipment up to a 15-amp load. The M-8Lx features two slide out, swiveling light fixtures to provide discreet illumination of your equipment on stages, in studios, and in other dark places. A dimmer knob lets you adjust the lamp brightness to just the right level. Features Noise Filtration - AC noise filtering to reduce radio frequency and electromagnetic interference (RFI/EMI). Surge Protection - Spike & surge protection ensures equipment stays safe and your power stays clean. 9 Total Outlets - 8 rear panel outlets and 1 front panel outlet. 15 Amp Rating - 15 amp rating, with circuit breaker. "Protection OK" Indicator - Front panel indicator LED lets you know that your equipment is being protected. Wall Wart Spacing Indicator - Rear outlets have been spaced to accomodate even the bulkiest of wall warts and adapters. Front Panel Pull-out Lights - Two retractable incandescent light fixtures with dimmer control for convenient rack illumination. Click to Enlarge SMP+ (Series Multi-Stage Protection Plus) Furman’s SMP+ surge suppression virtually eliminates service calls. Traditional surge suppression circuits sacrifice themselves when exposed to multiple transient voltage spikes, requiring the dismantling of your system, and repair of your surge suppressor. Not so with SMP+. With Furman’s SMP+, damaging transient voltages are safely absorbed, clamped and dissipated - no sacrificed parts, no service calls, no down time. Unique to Furman’s SMP+ is its unparalleled clamping voltage, even when tested beyond the grueling specifications of - USA/CIDA’s A-1-1 test. While other designs offer clamping voltages that are well above 300VAC peak (far beyond long accepted professional standards), Furman’s SMP+ clamps at 188VAC peak, 133 VAC RMS even when tested with multiple 6000VAC - 3000 Amp surges! This unprecedented level of protection is only available with Furman’s SMP+ technology. LiFT (Linear Filtering Technology) Unfortunately, traditional AC filter/conditioners have been designed for unrealistic laboratory conditions. Prior technologies could actually harm audio and video performance more than they help, due to the resonant peaking of their antiquated, non-linear designs. Under certain conditions, these designs can actually add more than 10 dB of noise to the incoming AC line! Worse still, lost digital data, the need to reboot digital presets, or destroyed digital converters are frequently caused by excessive voltage spikes and AC noise contaminating the equipment ground. Furman’s SMP+ with LiFT takes another approach, ensuring optimal performance through linear filtering and no leakage to ground. E.V.S. (Extreme Voltage Shutdown) Furman’s trusted overvoltage circuitry protects against all too frequent accidental connections to 208 or 240VAC by shutting off the incoming power until the overvoltage condition is corrected. Rear Panel BNC Connector For rear panel illumination, a BNC connector is provided for connection of any standard gooseneck lamp.
