ARCHIVAL IDENTIFICATION: Preserve exact model and regional suffix, nameplate, serial/date code, outlet map, manual revision and observed condition. Similar product-family names do not prove electrical equivalence.
Model specifications
| Manufacturer / exact model SKU | Furman M-8Dx. Verify full regional suffix and revision from the physical nameplate. |
|---|---|
| Catalog category / topology | Line conditioners — rackmount AC conditioner. No battery or stored-energy backup. |
| Input voltage / supported range | 120 V AC nominal North American supply; this model is a line-through conditioner, not a voltage regulator, so the manufacturer does not specify a regulation/capture window. |
| Output voltage / range | Nominal 120 V AC passed through; output follows the qualified input rather than being regulated. |
| Capacity / current | 15 A aggregate input/load rating. |
| Regulation / conditioning functions | Standard surge/spike protection and RFI/EMI line-noise filtration; front LED voltmeter displays incoming voltage. No AVR. |
| Outlets / connectors | Nine total: eight switched rear outlets and one front convenience outlet. |
| Response / continuity | Continuous pass-through and filtering; no transfer or correction delay is specified because there is no AVR. Surge-suppression timing is not stated in the cited summary. No battery. |
| Compatibility | Grounded 120 V rack components whose combined load is within 15 A; outlet switching follows the front-panel master switch. Not suitable for 230 V devices or loads needing regulated voltage/backup. |
| Electrical safety / installation limits | Use a grounded, correctly rated branch circuit; keep the total load below 15 A and ensure ventilation. Do not daisy-chain power strips or bypass the ground pin. Inspect cord and receptacles before use. |
Service and archival notes
- Record the AC source, loaded current, connected equipment, observed voltage and test conditions separately from manufacturer-rated values.
- This is a conditioning/distribution appliance, not a UPS: it cannot maintain output through a mains interruption.
- Never open energized mains equipment. Quarantine units with damaged cords, overheated connectors, compromised enclosure or grounding, or evidence of liquid ingress.
- Use the exact regional manual/nameplate for connector, branch-circuit, mounting, grounding and load requirements; this static record is not an installation approval.
