1 Description

The SurgeX® Space Saver products are 120V, 15/20 Amp AC power quality products incorporating SurgeX® Advanced Series Mode
®
power conditioning and surge protection. The surge protection is rated A-1-1, the highest standard of the Federal Commercial Item Description for Endurance. Several mounting options and receptacle configurations are available.
Surge X ICE® Inrush Current Elimination circuitry is incorporated into all of the Space Saver products. ICE® eliminates problems associated with inrush currents from large loads such as amplifiers. With SurgeX ICE
®
it is not necessary to take inrush currents into account when designing the AC power for a system, and special time-delay circuit breakers are not required: you only need to ensure that the steady-state currents of all products plugged into the Compact Mount or Versatile Rear Mount product are within the 15/20 Amp rating.
The Space Saver products incorporate contact closure and applied DC voltage remote control capabilities. Two or more CM or VM products can be connected together to provide control and power conditioning for larger systems. They can also control other SurgeX products with their auxiliary relay contacts and/or its 12V DC output.
A plug-in Phoenix terminal block on the rear panel accommodates the remote control connections and also the low-voltage outputs. There are three inputs which control power state; one 12V DC output; and one auxiliary relay providing normally-open contacts. The inputs can be controlled by an applied DC voltage from 5V to 30V, or by a contact closure. The inputs and 12V DC output are designed to withstand incorrect connections including polarity reversal and shorts.

3 Installation

Compact Mount (CM) products are designed to rest on a flat surface or to be mounted onto a flat surface, such as a wall. To mount the CM product, use six 6-32 Phillips pan head screws (included) to attach the removable mounting brackets (included) to the sides of the product. The attached power strip available with CM-1115(20)-RT18 and CM-1115(20)-RT24 is designed to rest on a flat surface or to be mounted along the side of a standard equipment rack.
Versatile Rear Mount (VM) products are designed to be mounted vertically, either to a flat surface or spanning the rear of a standard equipment rack. Use eight 6-32 Phillips pan head screws (included) to attach the removable mounting brackets (included) to the sides of the product. It is recommended to attach the hinged mounting bracket to the side of the product closest to the input power cord.

3.2 120 Volt Connections

Connect power to the unit by plugging the cord into a 120V AC, 15/20 amp wall or floor receptacle. Do not plug the unit into a re-locatable power tap.
The various receptacle configurations are detailed in the following tables. Each receptacle is rated for a maximum load of 15 Amps, but the total load must not exceed 15 Amps (20 Amps for 20A products).

Pin 1 – Contact Closure
Pin 2 – Contact Closure / Applied Voltage +
Pin 3 – Applied Voltage -
Pin 4 – Remote LED +
Pin 5 – Remote LED -
Pin 7 – Aux Relay Contact

3.3 Remote Control Connections

Remote control connections are wired to the green 7-pin plug-in Phoenix terminal block on the rear of the unit next to the power cord. The terminal block is shipped with a jumper wire between pins 1 & 2 so that the unit can be used without a remote control connection. If you will be using remote control you will first need to remove this jumper wire. You can unplug the terminal block to make connections and after you have made the connections to the terminal block, plug it back into the connector on the rear of the unit. Never solder (tin) wires before inserting into a terminal block – solder cold flows and you will eventually have loose connections!
The connections are shown below:

3.3.1 Control Inputs

The Space Saver products can be controlled by a DC voltage in the range 5V to 30V, by a contact closure (such as a relay), by a switch (latching), or by another SurgeX product such as the SEQ. Switches with gold contacts are recommended for the best long-term reliability.
a) DC Voltage:
there is no voltage. Connect the positive wire to Pin 2 (Applied Voltage +), and the negative wire to Pin 3 (Applied Voltage -). The positive and negative connections must be made with the correct polarity for proper operation.
Pin 6 – Aux Relay Contact
The unit will power up when the voltage is present, and power down when
b)
Contact Closure/Latching Switch: and power down when the contacts are open. Connect the two wires from the contacts or switch to Pin 1 (Contact Closure) and Pin 2 (Contact Closure / Applied Voltage +).

3.3.2 External LED Connections

The CM and VM Space Saver products are able to drive external LEDs or other signaling devices through their 12V DC output, which can provide up to 10mA of current. External LEDs connected in this way will be On when the unit’s AC receptacles are On, and Off when they are Off. When connecting LEDs to the 12V output, a series resistor is required. For example, many LEDs work well with 10mA of current, so a 1K resistor is usually a good choice. If more than one LED is required, then use a separate series resistor for each LED. For example, two external LEDs, each with a 2kΩ series resistor, could be powered from one unit at 5 mA each.
Connect each LED anode to “Remote LED +” through a resistor, and the cathodes to “Remote LED -”.
The unit will power up when the contacts are closed,

3.3.3 Auxiliary Relay Contacts

The auxiliary relay contacts, Pins 6 & 7, provide a way to cascade units or to provide confirmation feedback to a central controller. When the switched receptacles are on, the aux relay contacts are closed. There is a 1 second delay before the aux relay closes, which allows time for the SurgeX Inrush Current Elimination (ICE™) circuit to operate. This short delay in combination with the SurgeX ICE™ makes it unnecessary to sequence the power to several large loads (such as amplifiers) because of inrush current. SurgeX Space Saver products, when cascaded, can turn on a bank of large amplifiers with no inrush current, and therefore no risk of tripping a circuit breaker.
To cascade two or more Space Saver products, connect the aux relay contacts of one unit to the contact closure input of the next unit. To provide confirmation feedback, connect the aux relay contacts to an input on the central controller.
The relay contacts are rated for 1 amp at 30 V DC.

4 LED Indicators

There are four LED indicators located on the front panel. Their function is as follows:
Self Test (Green): When illuminated, the surge protection circuitry is functioning correctly.
Power (Red): When illuminated, the power switch is turned on, power is
applied to the unit, and the AC voltage is within normal limits.
Over/Under Voltage When illuminated, indicates that the AC voltage is either Protection (Orange): below 90V or above 145V.
Remote (Yellow): When illuminated, indicates that the remote control is
active and the rear switched receptacles are on.

CAUTION: Do not repeatedly turn a unit off-on-off-on with a heavy load co nne c ted. The ICE™ circuitry absorbs the inrush energy each time the unit is turned on and may overheat if this is done t oo many times in a short period of time. Wait one minute bet ween repeated turn-ons.
CAUTION: Do not install this device if there is not at least 10 meters (30 feet) or more between the electrical outlet and the electrical service panel.
