WHAT ARE YOU PLUGGING INTO<br />
If you’ve just made an electronics purchase - whether it is<br />
an <strong>advanced</strong> <strong>and</strong> complete home theater system, a single<br />
electronic component, an appliance, a computer - anything<br />
with a <strong>power</strong> cable - the first thing you’ll do is plug it in. But<br />
what are you plugging into<br />
Most electronics get plugged directly into a<br />
wall outlet, leaving them completely defenseless<br />
against catastrophic <strong>power</strong> surges, as<br />
well as everyday <strong>power</strong> spikes that degrade<br />
lifespan <strong>and</strong> performance over time. Additionally,<br />
without protection on signal <strong>and</strong> data<br />
lines, the equipment is susceptible to damage<br />
from an outside lightning strike.<br />
While many of us use surge protectors or<br />
<strong>power</strong> strips when more AC outlets are needed,<br />
how much protection do these devices<br />
offer Many inexpensive strips offer little to<br />
no protection against catastrophic voltage<br />
events, long term damage, or performancecorrupting<br />
AC line noise. Be sure to check the<br />
specifications of your <strong>power</strong> device <strong>and</strong> make<br />
sure you know what your are plugging into!<br />
<strong>Panamax</strong> products are engineered to protect, maximize performance,<br />
<strong>and</strong> add years of trouble-free use to your valuable<br />
electronics.<br />
WHY POWER AND ENERGY MANAGEMENT<br />
Power Management is absolutely critical to the performance,<br />
longevity & reliability of your home theater system.<br />
Every AC outlet in your home <strong>and</strong> business sees dozens to<br />
hundreds of electrical surges, spikes <strong>and</strong> fluctuations each<br />
day; most of them generated from within the home. For<br />
example: when appliances turn on <strong>and</strong> off, these internal<br />
motors send electrical spikes through the home’s electri-<br />
DESCRIPTIONS<br />
Protect-or-Disconnect<br />
In the event of a catastrophic <strong>power</strong> surge,<br />
such as a direct lightning hit, the <strong>Panamax</strong><br />
unit will disconnect AC <strong>power</strong> to connected<br />
equipment.<br />
AVM (Automatic Voltage<br />
Monitoring)<br />
Protects equipment against prolonged over/<br />
under voltages by disconnecting the <strong>power</strong><br />
<strong>and</strong> reconnecting it when safe <strong>power</strong> returns.<br />
Voltage Regulation<br />
Maximizes system performance <strong>and</strong> prolongs<br />
equipment life by providing a consistent level<br />
of optimal <strong>power</strong> to your equipment.<br />
Linear Filtration<br />
Ensures maximum audio <strong>and</strong> video performance<br />
to home theater equipment by filtering out noise<br />
common to household <strong>power</strong>.<br />
cal system. Those <strong>power</strong> anomalies, in time, damage the<br />
sensitive microchips in your home electronics.<br />
Electrical noise or harmonics generated from home appliances<br />
causes your audio <strong>and</strong> video equipment to behave<br />
erratically, creating undesirable artifacts, degrading the performance<br />
the device is capable of delivering.<br />
High Current Outlets<br />
Provides low-impedance outlets for optimal<br />
performance from high-current electronics such<br />
as amplifiers <strong>and</strong> subwoofers.<br />
Isolated Outlet Banks<br />
Isolates outlet banks from one another preventing<br />
noise contamination between components.<br />
Power Sequencing<br />
Guards against blown fuses <strong>and</strong> potentially<br />
damaging speaker thump by automatically<br />
<strong>power</strong>ing outlets on <strong>and</strong> off in sequence.<br />
Battery Back Up<br />
Prevents equipment from losing stored data<br />
<strong>and</strong> allows equipment to go through proper<br />
cool-down cycles.<br />
