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
® 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
® 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.
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
® 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
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.
1. Voltage reaches an unsafe high
level and the SurgeGate Plus™
disconnects.
2. Voltage reaches a safe level and
SurgeGate Plus™ automatically
reconnects.
3. Voltage reaches an unsafe low level
and SurgeGate Plus™ disconnects.
4. Voltage reaches a safe level and
SurgeGate Plus™ automatically
reconnects.
1. Voltage reaches an unsafe level.
2. If surge is greater than MAX
®
5410
capacity, it disconnects.
