1 Description
The SurgeX
®
Space Saver products are 120V, 15/20 Amp AC power quality products
incorporating SurgeX
®
Advanced Series Mode
®
power conditioning and surge protection. The
surge protection is rated A-1-1, the highest standard of the Federal Commercial Item Description
for Endurance. Several mounting options and receptacle configurations are available.
SurgeX ICE
®
Inrush Current Elimination circuitry is incorporated into all of the Space Saver
products. ICE
®
eliminates problems associated with inrush currents from large loads such as
amplifiers. With SurgeX ICE
®
it is not necessary to take inrush currents into account when
designing the AC power for a system, and special time-delay circuit breakers are not required:
you only need to ensure that the steady-state currents of all products plugged into the Compact
Mount or Versatile Rear Mount product are within the 15/20 Amp rating.
The Space Saver products incorporate contact closure and applied DC voltage remote control
capabilities. Two or more CM or VM products can be connected together to provide control and
power conditioning for larger systems. They can also control other SurgeX products with their
auxiliary relay contacts and/or its 12V DC output.
A plug-in Phoenix terminal block on the rear panel accommodates the remote control
connections and also the low-voltage outputs. There are three inputs which control power state;
one 12V DC output; and one auxiliary relay providing normally-open contacts. The inputs can be
controlled by an applied DC voltage from 5V to 30V, or by a contact closure. The inputs and
12V DC output are designed to withstand incorrect connections including polarity reversal and
shorts.

• Flexible form factor
o Compact Mount (CM) products have a standalone “brick” form factor, with options for built-in receptacles,
or an 18 or 24 outlet power strip.
o Versatile Rear Mount (VM) products have a 1RU form factor designed to be vertically mounted to the rear
of an equipment rack with hinged and fixed brackets.
