PRO Level Power Conditioner digital volt/ammeter, 120V/20A
What sets the Metered Six's Pro Series apart from other conditioners is the quantity, quality, and configuration of the suppression devices used. These include MOV's, gas discharge tubes, fast-blow fuses, and high voltage inductors and capacitors. This unique combination can safely absorb and dissipate large spikes from nearby lightning strikes and other sources (up to 11,000 amps across any wiring mode - hot-neutral, hotground, or neutral-ground), as well as highly attenuate audible high frequency noise. Precise high-inrush magnetic circuit breakers avoid the false tripping often encountered with large reactive loads like power amps. An additional feature, Extreme Voltage Shutdown, fights a hazard particularly common in the entertainment industry: wiring faults - for example, accidental connection to 220V. It senses voltages that are so high that operation would be impossible (over 140V) and shuts the power down before damage can occur. LED status indicators ("Protection OK" and "Ground OK") monitor the integrity of the protection devices and grounding, and report if the protection is compromised. There are three rack mount Metered Six Pro Series models. The PL-PROD and PL-PRODM Power Conditioner/Light Modules feature the familiar slide-out rack lights pioneered by Furman. These light modules utilize micro switches to turn each light tube off or on automatically when pushed in or pulled out. The PM-PRODM Power Conditioner/Monitor is for applications where lights are not needed. While the PL-PROD features a Digital voltmeter with laboratory accuracy, the PL-PRODM and PM-PRODM are supplied with True R.M.S. digital volt and current metering, which supply a highly accurate, reliable indication of voltage or current draw even for highly nonlinear loads like amplifiers, switching power supplies, or when the incoming AC line is distorted. All Pro Series rack mount models come with a ten-foot, 12 AWG power cord, and have eight widely-spaced rear outlets that can accommodate bulky plug-mounted power supplies, as well as a front-panel switched outlet.
