Panamax M8-AV-PRO User manual

M8-AV-PRO
AC power, telephone and coax lines can provide direct pathways for surges
and spikes to enter and damage expensive audio/video equipment.
M8-AV-PRO eliminates voltage irregularities & protects your AV system.
M8-AV-PRO
The M8-AV-PRO’s Power Cleaning and Premium
Filtration eliminate common symptoms of
contaminated power (including loss of detail,
hisses, hums and visual artifacts) and allows your
A/V equipment to perform up to its full capability.
L629-B 11/09
Panamax’s patented AVM circuitry continuously
monitors the incoming line voltage and disconnects
your equipment in the event of an over voltage or
undervoltage (brownout). Power is automatically
reconnected when voltage returns to a safe level,
eliminating service calls or system downtime
