FEATURE DETAILS
Protect or Disconnect™ AC Surge Protection
When the MAX
®
5410 is subjected to a high voltage surge, its voltage output is limited to a safe level and the high levels
of surge current are diverted away from the connected equipment.
• When subjected to a 6,000V (open circuit voltage) / 500A (short circuit current) surge, the MAX
®
5410 limits
its voltage output to less than 330V peak, UL’s lowest rating. The MAX
®
5410 will withstand, without dam-
age, multiple 12,000A surges, far exceeding the UL maximum requirement of only 3,000 Ampere surges.
• If the magnitude of the surge is greater than the capacity of the surge protection components, the MAX
®
5410’s Protect or Disconnect™ Circuitry will disconnect your equipment in order to protect it. The MAX
®
5410 will need to be repaired or replaced by Panamax if this occurs. (See Product Warranty).
SurgeGate Plus™ Protection
The MAX
®
5410 constantly monitors the AC line voltage for unsafe voltage conditions such as prolonged overvoltages and
undervoltages (brownouts). These unsafe conditions pose a very dangerous threat to all electronic equipment within the
home. If the MAX
home. If the MAX
®
5410 senses an unsafe power condition, it will automatically
disconnect your equipment from the
power to protect equipment from damage. Once the voltage returns to a safe level, the MAX
®
5410 will automatically
reconnect the power.
If the line voltage exceeds the overvoltage threshold (134VAC) or falls below the undervoltage threshold (95VAC), the
MAX
MAX
®
5410 will perform the following tasks until line voltage returns to a safe level:
1. Disconnects power to all connected equipment.
2. Unsafe Voltage LED is activated and will blink once per second during the unsafe voltage condition.
2. Unsafe Voltage LED is activated and will blink once per second during the unsafe voltage condition.
The MAX
®
5410 requires line voltage to return to within the safe operating range for 10 seconds before returning to normal
operating mode. This is referred to as “Over/Undervoltage Recovery”. The safe operating range is considered 5V above the
under-voltage threshold (~100V) and 5V below the overvoltage threshold (~129V). Once this safe operating range is
reached, the MAX
under-voltage threshold (~100V) and 5V below the overvoltage threshold (~129V). Once this safe operating range is
reached, the MAX
®
5410 will perform the following functions:
1. Unsafe Voltage LED will blink 4 times per second for Over/Undervoltage Recovery.
2. Power is restored to all connected equipment after the 10-second delay. The normal start-up sequence
2. Power is restored to all connected equipment after the 10-second delay. The normal start-up sequence
as determined by the “High-Current Outlets Turn-On Switch” and “Outlet Bank 2 Turn-Off Switch” will
be followed.
The MAX
®
5410 provides protection against common problems on the AC power line. This includes spikes/surges and
sustained overvoltages or undervoltages. Panamax’s exclusive Protect or Disconnect™ circuitry is designed to protect
against spikes/surges while the SurgeGate Plus™ circuitry is for sustained over/under voltage protection.
