AMETEK Electronic Systems Protection (ESP) has announced the new SurgeX Defender Series line of power protection products.

Designed specifically to safeguard everyday applications, the Defender Series aims to provide cost-effective, comprehensive power protection and conditioning to increase uptime and ensure connected equipment functions properly.

Designed with patented Multi-Stage surge suppression technology, the Defender Series line protects AV equipment from electrical transients that can cause harmful system disruptions. The three-stage protection ensures equipment is safeguarded from the harmful effects of surge energy, and the advanced filtration of the Defender Series virtually eliminates normal and common mode electrical noise interference that can cause frequent reboots and downtime.

The one-outlet SX-DS-151 model is small enough to be deployed in environments where space is a consideration but power protection is a must. The eight-outlet SX-DX-158 and SX-DS-208 models are rack mountable and aim to provide comprehensive power protection and conditioning at the rack level in education, security, or house of worship installation environments where budgets are limited, carefully reviewed, and proper power protection often overlooked.

Both the SX-DS-158 model and SX-DS-208 model are rackmount, 1U and 8.5” deep making them more compact and shallow than current SurgeX offerings. Additionally, the SX-DS-151 is a single outlet 15A model designed to plug directly into a receptacle.
