Fairfield, NJ–– Middle Atlantic is expanding its Modular Power Raceway system to include surge protection capabilities with two exclusive benefits. The introduction of Series Protection™ modules for the MPR Series marks the industry’s first vertical power strip to offer series type non-degrading surge protection and its first fully configurable power solution to do the same.
The new Series Protection™ modules will also provide series type surge protection to all cascading modules in each circuit. A patent-pending technology, Series Protection™ is the fastest-responding series type surge suppression currently available.
The Modular Power Raceway system allows integrators to configure their own ETL-listed vertical power solution using off-the-shelf parts. Integrators now have the option of incorporating reliable surge protection into their custom power design. When installed as the first circuit within the power strip, these modules will extend that series type surge protection to all connected units that follow. In addition, the module sits on top of raceway channel, which allows circuit wiring between modules and unimpeded connection to the termination.
The new MPR modules join the Middle Atlantic family of rackmount and RackLink™ power products leveraging Series Protection™ technology. Modules are available in 15 or 20 amp configurations with outlet options being controlled or on when connected.
